/dragonsfuckingcars and /r/carsfuckingdragons I just need them to exist

[-] Addfwyn@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

A lot of the broader interest subs I followed have either migrated over or have local equilvalents.

I had a couple niche ones I miss. I work in hospitality so talesfromthefrontdesk is definitely one I miss, and I haven't seen a good version here as of yet.

Specific game subs are not as popular here yet, but honestly I am not sure how much I really need that. Rimworld is probably the only game I keep coming back to often enough to justify it, and I largely use discord for that. Only thing I use discord for really.

I liked to browse /r/cd_collectors and /r/fragrance

I liked seeing /r/witchesVSpatriarchy on /r/All, but I never really followed them.

Edit: spelling.

[-] kromem@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm going to do my best to get /r/AcademicBiblical over in some fashion.

[-] Dewded@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

r/tekken is sorely missed. Same applies for r/starcraft. I guess there is a com for StarCraft, but it seems quite dead.

[-] kava@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

/r/credibledefense /r/zizek

Specific game subs like /r/victoria3 or /r/slaythespire

Those video subs that show crazy stuff

/r/terrifyingasfuck /r/crazyfuckingvideos /r/fightporn etc

If anyone knows a lemmy/kbin community that's similar I'd appreciate a share

[-] KillaBeez@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

All of them.

FFXIV, Steam Deck, ARAD

[-] Stovetop@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I've been using ffxiv@possumpat.io but it's definitely not as active as /r/ffxiv.

[-] llama@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

Hoping !jailbreak@lemmy.ml becomes more active

[-] Elkaki123@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

r/writtingprompts by far my favorite community of all time and I hope it makes a resurgence

Other ones would be r/the10thdentist, r/nottheonion and r/askhistorians (they probably will never join since they have their own website to fall back own if it all goest to shit)

Lastly r/manga, I said this one as separate because I have seen a few but the community is not there yet, especially lacking features like what are you reading this month and at MOST having 15 subscribers

Some of the smaller subs I used to frequent don't see as much traffic as I would like. Like cycling and edc. I just have to be the change I want to see. I will I swear, just need to fine some spare time.

[-] Serinus@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

/c/league@lemmy.ml

It's one of the biggest subs on Reddit, but having trouble taking off here.

[-] DrQuint@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Same thing for every single-game community. Dota's deserted. Also things like patientgamers is lowering in activity.

Yes, I absolutely loved listentothis. I think it was sort of losing user interaction towards the end but it was so great to comb through previous years to find great music.

We should definitely get another one up and running!

I'll really miss the location specific subreddits, those were super useful when travelling to find stuff only local redditors knew about. It helped get you off the beaten path.

[-] RatzChatsubo@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

I miss /r/accidentalwesanderson

[-] FrickAndMortar@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Ooo, that was a good one - now I miss it too!

I Also miss r/VXJunkies and r/ThePack

[-] RatzChatsubo@vlemmy.net 2 points 1 year ago

So I decided to be the change and create the community

https://vlemmy.net/c/accidentalwes

[-] FrickAndMortar@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago
[-] klemptor@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

VXJunkies was the best

[-] CeruleanRuin@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

r/blankies and r/AubreyMaturin, please. Also a Montana community would be welcome.

[-] vita_man@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

r/personalfinance was a great one to read about financial situations and see advice given for each. Doesn't seem like c/personalfinance has had any posts for days.

[-] Kittybeer@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I like to live vicariously and lurk in city subreddits. (Los Angeles, Phoenix, Denver, etc...if it's a city, I will lurk). It's a little lonely over here in that regard.

[-] BendyLemmy@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Some of the jokes were nice - with the best laughs coming from the replies and the bad puns.

[-] Porcupine@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Interesting, one of my least favorite things about reddit was all of the low-effort joke replies. I could happily go the rest of my life without seeing another pun.

[-] BendyLemmy@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Over obsessing with puns is a recognised psychological issue...

At school, I remember the time I was jealous of our 'class clown' who was genuinely pretty hilarious every time he opened his mouth and extremely popular (especially with the girls). The worst thing to do is to try to emulate that (go home, study a ton of jokes... I'm sure everyone did that at some stage).

I think one of the lessons I worked hard to teach my son is that you shouldn't make an effort to be funny, because that's mostly just four-king annoying. Since then, his jokes come less frequently - but with higher hit-rates.

But for sure, Reddit seems to have an average mentality of 6 to 12.

The worst trap to get into is to try to make jokes about unemployed people - because they never work.
