A lot of the subs that I can't find as active on this platform

I miss that thing where any time there was a difficult question, someone with real expertise would jump into the comments. And sometimes it was someone who literally wrote the book on the subject. Sometimes it was the person who invented the thing being talked about. It was crazy. It happened all the time. It seemed like everyone was on Reddit and you could really trust you were getting solid answers.

Niche communities full of useful info. The subreddit for a game I'm playing rn was the one of the largest sources of information for the game, and now the subreddit is privated and all that info is inaccessible

Match threads on sporting communities with hundreds of people commenting during the match.

/r/askhistorians. The only truly good subreddit.

Is Multireddits the correct term...? Being able to categorize my feeds instead of just having everything lumped together in "Subscribed".'

The rest is just taking a bit of time to adjust to. Currently takes a bit longer to research something, though I find my need for answers on Reddit itself is growing less and less!

Searching for any question +Reddit and finding multiple answers/discussions related to it that are usually reliable or at least lead to ideas for more research. Especially for finding products and reviews.

I still sometimes look at old.reddit search results even though I don’t have an account any more, but I think those answers will soon become obsolete. And eventually I think new questions will be flooded with low effort trash answers that would make Amazon reviews blush.

I worry some safe spaces for specific mental illnesses will take quite some time to emerge in here since they are very "niche" communities.

I think it can be very important for some people to engage with people who share the same struggles. I would totally understand if some people decide to keep using reddit for that sole purpose.

Sports subreddits. The majority of users on the sports subs I followed got all high and mighty when the strike happened, thinking that they were more important. I made the only post so far on nfl memes and barely got any interaction.

People not asking what others miss from Reddit, mostly.

Nothing, I’m still there, unfortunately. Fact is, there just isn’t that much engagement here, and smaller niche subs that I like will have new posts daily on Reddit, but will sometimes take a week or more.

I like the idea of Lemmy quite a bit, and I appreciate the hell out of Memmy and Mlem (can’t decide what I like more), but I also am using Apollo still, and I may have to stick with that for a while.

The simracing community. There are active subreddits for every single sim, they sadly haven't made the move yet.

The sorting algorithm.

The "hot" sorting algorithm on lemmy is not there yet. It does not let posts for smaller communities surface, and often resurfaces posts which are several years old.

We keep seeing threads looking back at Reddit. Removing this one under rule #4.
