My local subreddit, but it will sadly never happen, because the overwhelming majority of users there simply don't care about whatever spez or reddit is doing - they didn't even do the 48h blackout, just complete apathy. Oh well, I'll miss it, but not enough to actually go back there, so it's all good.

- Not regarding using or support for Lemmy: context, see the list of support communities and tools for finding communities below
- Not ad nauseam inducing: please make sure it is a question that would be new to most members
- An actual topic of discussion

Looking for a community?
- Lemmyverse: community search
- sub.rehab: maps old subreddits to fediverse options, marks official as such

Well, time for you to create it and hope that a new generation of lemmy users will eventually find their place.
That's not happening either - I would not be a moderator or leader of any community even if it was a paid position :) It's fine though - I can definitely live without it, I'll just need a bit of time to get over the addiction fully - I am surprised at how much I like this place, so it's actually going much smoother than I expected.
What is it?
Talesfromtechsupport and the other tales subreddits were always great.
I will miss Hybrid Animals too.
I tended to use Reddit for smaller niche communities, many of which I do not see here yet. For example Eldin Ring, Ghost of Tsushima, Hot Sauce, Gifrecipes, Rings of Power, PTCGL. It will be nice when these can be created and have enough people to make it interesting but it's not there yet.
I play a lot of Stardew Valley and I'm going to miss that community, as there sadly doen't seem to be enough interest for it around here. And the jazz-related communities are also inactive.
I'd love to be part of a stardew Valley community, is there one already on kbin?
Yes, there is one, but there are currently no threads or microblogs there. We have to start somewhere, I guess.
Thank you! I'll try and think of something to post
I really miss my local city sub. It had barely any traffic but it would keep me in touch with certain events abs news.
joke subreddits such as /r/pferdesindkacke, /r/breadstapledtotrees, /r/dogswithwings etc.
Niche, but I enjoyed Stereograms.
Cosplay, anyone? Like sewing, there's some amazing artists out there.
HobbyDrama. I wouldn’t have anything to contribute so I haven’t started it myself, but I really enjoyed reading the in depth writings about niche hobby blowouts.
a new home for r/comics!
The two that I can think of are Justrolledintotheshop and Fitness. I know there are fitness communities, but I miss the Weekly rant, victory posts, and the activity. There was also a circlejerk version of it and I liked lurking there. I understand that the type of person signing up here probably aren’t into some of these things.
I know Justrolledintotheshop didn’t participate in the blackout because it seems like a lot of the posters there didn’t care about the API stuff. They also don’t care about their personal data being harvested, and I’m sure they complain about right to repair and all of that fun stuff too.
Anyways, I always liked the “humorous posts; educational comments” subreddit. Another example would be programmerhumor.
I appreciate the mods for what they do, but I only feel comfortable commenting, lurking, and the occasional posting. Posting content makes me feel too connected to the internet and reminds me to touch grass more often. Hence why I wouldn’t become a mod or create those subs
Programmer humor is alive and well on lemmy world!
- learnprogramming
- gifRecipes
- softwaretesting or QualityAssurance
- tinder (profile reviews and punny responses were just simple)
- nattyorjuice
- publicfreakouts
- whatcouldgowrong
- tifu
- unexpected
- one of those local r4r
one of those local r4r
In this case it should be called l4l or k4k, depending whether they're on Lemmy or Kbin.
I keep looking out for the lonely lemming subs but nothing yet. They probably need a particular population size (and mix) before they start working. Same for the random acts subs.
For the racing enthousiasts, I created c/wec . Feel free to join, I'm lonely over there :D
None really, got all my crafts here already and my other account has all kinds of gamedev communities to follow. Now that Star Trek is here and a couple of people have set up Eurovision communities, not to mention UKCasual is here, I'm pretty sorted!
Just need more people to join in with the ones that exist, now.
A malazan book of the fallen community and a world of tanks blitz one
I feel like for Malazan the only alternatives have been discord servers, and maybe the old forum but I haven’t been there in a long time.
I want a kitchen confidential magazine. As a cook, I found a lot of comfort visiting that sub at the end of a long day and seeing everyone else experiencing the same stuff I was. I miss that content
Another vote for justrolledintotheshop.
Where is VexillologyCirclejerk? Is it safe? Is it all right?
I wish for TheIsle to become a Sublemy
A league of legends community would be nice
I would love to see a disc golf magazine
There is one over on lemmy.world. only 10 members right now.
Thanks for the heads up!
i enjoy reading /r/comics. the creators are still posting in reddit so the /c/comics here is not active. Maybe we can create a bot that will scrap data from reddit and post it in lemmy? Just make sure to tag or mention the OC
I’d love to see
M/Sonos
M/hometheater
M/smarthome
M/NYC
What I liked about reddit was that there was seemingly a sub for everything, no matter how ultra specific. Like r/master returns for vids of dogs happily greeting their owners, or a sub for wolfs eating watermelons etc. As far as I can tell, there are substitutes for the basic, most known subs here but ultra specific stuff lile this will probably take time.
I also miss communities for specific games I play. There are some, but even those are not super active and only for some bigger games.
What would be supper useful though is to have a place where you can ask what communities you could join based on what you want - like r/findareddit (edit: nvm, just found [email protected]!)
NoLawn, Cycling
I'd like to see a community like r/cabinporn (nothing nsfw, just pics of cabins) ans r/overlanding
A lastfm community that is active
I'm holding out for a College Football community (or, really, an FCS football community). We're coming up on the season, and I'm gonna miss the shit talking and Game Day threads, not to mention general CFB news and updates.
