A VR (virtual reality) focused community would be nice, it has a very strong community across devices all things considered.

I'll definitely miss r/framework the most, the community on the subreddit is awesome

[–] e8d79@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

r/buttcoin, every time I feel bad about myself I like reading about crypto fails to remind myself that I could have made even worse decisions.
r/noncredibledefense, makes the horror of the war not far from me a bit more bearable

[–] Kurt@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

r/woodworking would be nice.

[–] SirSolrac@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

r/grandorder Probably my most used subreddit. Also r/hololive and r/nijisanji

/r/eurovision, although the season just ended so it would be a bit quiet right now anyway.

/r/fantasyfootball, that season is just about to kick off so would be good timing

If you'd asked this a day earlier I'd have said /r/casualUK but we now have !ukcasual@lemmy.world

And the various specific craft subs. Currently we're posting all craft projects to !creative@beehaw.org but sooner rather than later I think it'll have to be split up into individual crafts because if there's one thing crafters love even more than the actual making stuff, it's showing off the stuff we made.

https://kbin.social/m/eurovision@chirp.social is a thing (I'm trying to make it more of a thing, but this is June😭)

edit: I've just found out there's a https://kbin.social/m/Eurovision - keep an eye on both of them for now

Please can we have a "BuyNothing" or "Freecycle" Comunity? One for each city/region/area would be better but If needed we could have just one where post titles contain the location (SacramentoCA) before anything else. Then sorting / Searching would weed out the unwanted due to distance items.

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I feel it probably makes more sense for location-specific instances to have their own communities for these things. So for example, have a Lemmy instance for London, e.g. london.lemmy.uk. Then have ~Freecycle@london.lemmy.uk community, which is for Freecycle posts in London.

Of course anyone from other instances can join, it just seems to make sense that something so location specific should be in a location specific Lemmy instance (of which there are a growing number).

Most of these are on Reddit, but there may be a few that I thought could be specific, but not as niche as some of the ones on reddit. (like no community just for one game)

Van conversion/van life

Birding

Camping and hiking

AmITheAsshole

Each state in the US

Longevity

Kindlescribe/e-ink

RestlessLeg (or a chronic condition community)

Woodworking (bigger builds)

Carving (smaller builds, not furniture or big stuff)

Nutrition

NextFuckingLevel

JRPG

Turn-Based RPGs

Action/Adventure Games

I'm a full time RVer, I'm also interested in a vanlife/rvlife community.

Not really niche, but CFB has the best community.

I also love OSRS and wouldn’t mind seeing a Drum Corps community as well.

I really hope /r/xbiking makes its way here! I'm addicted to seeing their creations.

[–] paaviloinen@sopuli.xyz 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why don't you put up one yourself? :)

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd feel inadequate as a mod of such a community. I use a bike as my main means of transportation, and do some cycle touring, but I'm not much of a wrench, I only own one bike, and it's a pretty vanilla entry-level hybrid.

I was thinking of maybe starting a more general purpose community for all things cycling. I haven't been able to find any so far.

I'm new to the whole fediverse thing, but - if you've got an interest in a specific, uh... Sub? Fed? Community? Why not create one yourself?

[–] Menachem@midwest.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Because then I have to moderate it :/

Cycling communities, specifically the non-judgemental welcoming r/xbiking.

/r/futurama
/r/3Dprinting
/r/swift.

[–] jnovinger@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Tada! https://lemmy.ml/c/futurama

I've never modded a sub/community before, much less something with a fanbase the size of Futurama's. But, I'm willing to get it started.

I’d love to see stuff related to linux tech I use and obscure video game discussions. Some of my favs were:

bspwm oxenfree edgerunners

And quite a few others, but those are off the top of my head atm.
