i’m definitely going to miss r/BuyItForLife. it was really nice to lurk on there and find good quality products like darn tough socks being recommended to people. found my backpack there too and it’s the best i’ve ever had.

It’s just cool to see the variety of refugees here sharing memories of their previous communities in the once glorious homeland made uninhabitable by the authoritarian regime.

bestofredditorupdates, watercolor, embroidery, fitness, fundiesnarkuncensored, cooking.. there’s a lot. This is so sad and I hope Lemmy really takes off. And if it does I hope some of these talented developers make bad ass apps for it

I'm really going to miss BestofRedditorUpdates. I could literaly spend hours reading.

For me, I liked more niche subreddits like r/Paranormal and r/Glitch_in_the_Matrix - along with the local city subs. There's no place like local

/r/OnlyFans
https://web.archive.org/web/20230325223700/https://old.reddit.com/r/OnlyFans/

So many...

Wallstreetbets, NonCredibleDefense, all the comedy and podcast subs dunking on Joe Rogan. Last couple years though I got heavy into NFL Meme War subs. Those had some top tier content during the NFL season.

The very specific animal subreddits like blurrypicturesofdogs or catsinwaterpackages. Always fun to find new ones or suddenly see something pop up from one of them again.

I loved r/hobbydrama, it was such a good place. :<

r/bestofredditorupdates was what I read before I went to bed. I’m lost without it.

/r/history heavily moderated and has actual historical experts answering questions and has a big library of already answered questions.

I'm really going to miss anime_titties; for anyone that doesn't know, it was a wildly inappropriately named serious subreddit focused on interesting, relevant, unbiased world news that actually affected people.

Polandball (the mods have said they don't support the protest)

Also tales from tech support

r/sffpc, r/iiiiiiitttttttttttt, and r/techsupportgore mostly

Idiotsincars... but there are just *so many *idiots out there so I'm sure I'll find a replacement for it.

I think losing the ability to lurk in active communities of people I disagree with politically. I would never engage as it didn't seem right, especially down/upvoting, but It was always interesting to see things from the other perspective.

So places like r/tories, r/conservative, r/prolife, r/liberalgunowners - as a guy from the UK a lot of the subjects discussed in a few of those didn't affect me but I always prefer seeing things from both sides (even if I would never agree with them)

Daddit 100%

r/PolandBall. I love the history jokes

Going to miss r/theocho.

I'll miss those obscure highly specific traditional Italian games.

Homelab, rimworld, explainlikeimfive, and oneorangebraincell.

I might try making a rimworld community.

The big video game communities and the Linux communities I was in. Lots of people makes it loud and dumb but also makes for good content to rise to the top

• Daddit
• Datahoarder
• NBA
• LegalAdvise
• Pokémon

Definitely whatisthisthing. There was a truly specialized group of finders there who're unlikely to make the move.

r/AskHistorians - mostly because of the unprecedented quality of moderation r/MaleFashionAdvice - helped me appreciate fashion and nice clothes

/r/Strava and a bunch of the cycling ones like /r/Velo and /r/bikepacking, not very optimistic that there's much intersection between existing subsribers and those willing to leave Reddit for Lemmy but I can always live in hope!

I miss the Apple related subreddits, that community hasn’t really seemed to move over yet.

Hey everyone, I just joined 5 minutes ago. Been a Redditor for 7y 2m. I’m actually really going to miss reddit and many of the communities such as r/idiotsincars, r/catastrophicfailures, and well a couple hundred more over followed over the years. I’m hoping I can find more community here though. I never felt connected to the users on Reddit. Maybe it will be different here.

All of them. There’s so much collective knowledge stored in the comments, posts and subreddit menus, and it’s going to disappear. Stupid spez

Shout-out to all the nephews on r/NBA

Going to miss the shitty takes and off-season content

r/castiron

Such a friendly community, always good vibes

r/crochet and r/lotrmems the most!

Several of he hobby ones. Ben Eater (6502 based computers, 8 bit computer), local ones, history/science based ones, infosec/sysadmin/etc. ones. There are some Lemmy based ones, but it'll take a while to build up. I'm hoping that I can contribute to them and see them grow a bit. But, others are just where I could comment and enjoy as I lack the real knowledge to contribute very much (the history/science ones that required more in-depth knowledge and not just a "Wikipedia degree of arts of internet research for obscure questions".

Pretty sure AITA, TIFU etc were mostly badly written fan fiction lol. Some of those stories were so far from anything that could happen in reality. I hate being so cynical and critical of everything.. ignorance is bliss

I am going to miss just a lot of the lighthearted stuff that gave me an escape from work: HighQualityGIFs, WallStBets, funny, holdmycosmo, etc

R/buildapcsales, r/animemes, and r/leopardsatemyface for sure

To be honest, I won't really miss any specific subreddit. Many of the niche and hobby ones that I cared for, I would not subscribe to, because of the low-effort posts.

I will miss site:reddit.com most of all.

Am I The Asshole and all the crafting subs - quilting, sewing, cross stitch
