There are several groups on reddit that I have enjoyed, and am going to really miss unless I find some fediverse versions. It's the agony columns, all the ones where people ask for advice. Like r/AITA, and r/RomanticAdvice. There are so many of them.
What are some similar ones in this platform?
All the anime communitys, what's that thing, because it probably saved several people's lives, the communities all around gaming and (let's be real) most probably want the NSFW part of reddit to migrate here as well...
This seems way too unlikely to happen, but r/askhistorians. It's an exceptionally well moderated (if a bit overzealous) community that allows for both the average person to ask seemingly impossible, very specific questions as well as academics to express their knowledge and passion for those very same super specific topics they find fascinating; but have difficulty finding an audience to listen to them in their day to day lives.
I'm really hoping for some quality archaeology/anthropology/history content as well, I started !humans@terefere.eu for a kind of catch-all community (and yes, that's the best name I could come up with)
marijuanaenthusiasts, DankVotingReformMemes, designdesign, GlamourBeards, HeavySeas, ididthejobboss, itsslag, mechanical_gifs, Justrolledintotheshop, NeutralPolitics, Unextexted, StraightsBeingOK, StreetArtPorn, Zoomies, wowthissubexists, streetwear, specializedtools, britishproblems, so many!
I would like to see r/stunfisk, its the main pokeon subreddit of the smogon single battles format, but it would be really cool if the pokemon subs would get together and make their own lemmy instance
Where's all the game developer communities?
obscuremedia, tipofmytongue, gameboy, consolerepair
I would like to see:
r/NoSleep r/skincareaddiction r/math r/cpp r/python r/gonewildaudio
It's pretty damn new, but the only reason I keep popping back on reddit is to go to r/HyruleEngineering. The problem is that it relies on the easiness of reddit hosting the video for these short clips which lemmy currently couldn't handle. Though, people there are dedicated enough to their builds and information that they would probably be the ones who would make burner youtube accounts to upload things.
If anyone is looking, I made !amateur_radio (https://sh.itjust.works/c/amateur_radio).
It's not exactly obvious how to make them, so here's a more clickable link for all instances: amateur_radio
humansbeingbros is my wholesome dose, so to me that'd be essential.
Oh and also cozyplaces. It's quite fun and interesting to see how people make their living environment quite so cozy and enjoyable.
- Wow, wownoob, and other game specific subreddits.
- Star Trek, Star Wars, and other sci-fi movie/show related subreddits
- NFL team and other sports related subreddits
- Fantasy Football
All of the Warhammer related subreddits!
/r/sweden /r/languagelearning /r/svenska /r/girlgamers and /r/witchesvspatriarchy
I was going to say /r/ExperiencedDevs, but it looks like they made an official instance at programming.dev. So that's pretty great.
r/mademesmile
not a niche, but not on lemmy -> r/Pizza !!!
r/BarefootRunning
r/cheesemaking
r/freebsd
r/zfs
genshin_impact, honkaistarrail, and wildrift
I really wanted to fully switch to Lemmy from Reddit but I recently got into star rail and I just browse the sub daily. If someone makes a star rail sub here that would be awesome.
I hope that the main Xenoblade subreddit can have a faction over here. There's lots of interesting comments there.
I'm in a few different subs on Reddit, but the ones id love to see the most here would probably be:
r/stellaris r/crusaderkings r/kotor r/fireemblem and r/talesfromtechsupport
I want r/aquariums, r/plantedtank, r/walstad, r/[the city I live in], r/[state if live in], r/mylittlepony, r/myilttlehmmmm, r/hmmmm, these are just the ones im missing the most.
