/R/credibledefense I love the deep dives into defense procurement. Really hoping to find a community like that. I would make my own but I have no idea how to start and I don't have the background needed to be a good moderator (Or whatever the lemmy equivalent would be) in that kind of topic.

Second this. Love, credibledefence

r/liveaudio r/mixingandmastering r/bitwig r/ableton r/ethereum

all of the Linux subreddits I browse + r/selfhosted, r/homelab, r/datahoarder.

all of these seem like easy fits for the fediverse.

Actually a few, but to list some

~~r/PublicDomain~~

r/MirrorsEdgeAesthetics

~~r/MovieSuggestions~~

~~r/LostMedia~~

~~rMediumReadings~~

~~r/RockinTheClassics~~

~~r/REgames ~~

r/CarHacking could also be good

Maybe~~ r/iwatchedanoldmovie ~~ Some game specifics sub's like r/MetalGearSolid, r/MetalSlug and r/HalfLife, r/moddergearsolid is a particularly obscure one.

Most of the console modding subs like r/360hacks, r/WiiUHacks which is going dark, r/PS3Homebrew and so on.

From my own feed that's about it, with the exception of some piracy ones like rCemuPiracy r/LinuxCrackSupport and r/SteamDeckPirates, among others. And a couple in particular that push a bit closer to the work unsafe side, so those wouldn't be here.

Iโ€™m in for a lost media community.

r/Aviation and r/KerbalSpaceProgram equivalents would be welcomed by me.

[โ€“] i_love_FFT@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

It's inspiring to see all the crazy inventive stuff that people come up with in KSP!

[โ€“] missingno@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I've gone ahead and created !fgc@kbin.social and !splatoon@kbin.social. Would like to have focused subs for individual fighting games (Skullgirls, ThemsFightinHerds), but that's probably not practical yet. Generally I'd just like to look up whatever game I'm playing right now and find a community for it.

Would also like to see /mahjong as well, may set that up myself later.

[โ€“] GentlyFeral@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'd like to see r/adhdwomen, r/bropill, r/SantaMuerte, r/oldhagfashion, r/MensLib, r/Vaush, r/knitting, and just about all of the cat subs.

[โ€“] tuckerm@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've seen a few people mention fighting games on here (e.g. Street Fighter). I'd be interested in that. The number of gameplay clips people would be sharing make me think it ought to be its own instance, though.

Also:

  • pens, fountain pens
  • mechanical keyboards
  • watches

Some communities have been created for those, but don't seem to have gained much popularity.

[โ€“] missingno@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I've set up !fgc@kbin.social

It's probably not practical to have subs for individual games just yet though.

[โ€“] dingus@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

/r/trackers and /r/opensignups. the private torrent community is thriving.

[โ€“] lvxferre@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I want to see r/conlangs migrating.

It's the only subreddit that I'm still contributing in good faith with. The community is beehaw levels of nice, and the mods are surprisingly competent and decent people, not trashy like the r/linguistics ones.

The only issue with r/conlangs is that it's in Reddit. But if they were to migrate, frankly? I'd be glad to help them out. Perhaps even donate to whatever instance they create.

Not trying to start any political debates. These are just some of the subreddits that I would like to see as communities here on Lemmy. Feel free to comment if some of these exist and I'll update my comment.

Ah, just realized that almost none of these are actually niche. Whoops.

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

r/outside. That place is such a needed mental break.

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...

Geez, an active metalmemes.

Properly moderated morbidquestions

I'm trying to get an edc branch going, as well as one for knives. It's an uphill thing just like starting a new sub would be though.

[โ€“] Flaky@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Eurovision is probably the one I'll miss the most from Reddit. The people I talked to their were real chill.

[โ€“] _jamie@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

/r/talesfromtechsupport /r/maliciouscompliance and /r/prorevenge always give me a chuckle.

[โ€“] cornballdefense@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Would love to see about starting up something like r/gamedeals once I get the hang of this place. I'm always on the lookout anyways.

[โ€“] 9point6@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I subscribed to /c/gamedeals and /c/gamedeals@lemmy.blahaj.zone the other day!

(Not 100% if I've linked those up right)
