I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already.

Despite that, some of my hobby ones still aren't here. NFL exists, but it's the same as nothing so far. Soccer I couldn't find at first, maybe today it already does? Also, no sign of fantasy football.

I also followed a bunch of History subs, but looks like most people in Lemmy only care about science and technology.

Tell us, what is missing for you?

I'm going to miss the mycology sub, haven't had any luck in finding something similar yet.

!mycology@mander.xyz

It's one of the biggest communities on Mander.

No but not a lot of people have multiple sclerosis so I undersand.

I think moderators of the large subreddit should immigrate the users with a statement while privated.

[–] 3sframe@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe some IT meme subs. I feel like those will be on here soon enough.

I also miss my local subs. I live in a midsized city and it's going to take quite a lot of time for it to migrate. I don't want to start it myself because the community is pretty toxic, but it has helpful information. What I'm saying is, I don't want to be a moderator to that community hah.

Mainly just communities for specific games, if they do exist they aren’t populated enough for interaction

It would be kinda nice if /aaaaaaacccccccce made it over. I know there's a lgbt on beehaw but it's not quite the same if that makes sense.

Missing: r/liberalgunowners, r/libertarian without the hard-right Mises Caucus flavor, r/reloading, r/longrange

Happy to see: r/iowa, r/SocialistRA

Happy to not see: r/politics, r/whitepeopletwitter and their... unique dogpiling

I mean I mainly spent my time on the UK based subs and we've got United Kingdom and casualuk equivalents here already which is good. They both need a lot more users though.

Mainly what I'm missing are skateboarding, more specific music subs like metal, punk etc., but those will come in time I'm sure.

Nice to be here by the way, still getting used to how the whole fediverse thing works but it seems pretty cool so far!

If anyone misses /r/chapotraphouse they have their own version of Lemmy they have built for the last 3 years which should be back to being federated soon. hexbear.net for anyone interested.

I just subscribed to my local city of /c/Boston - but there are no posts yet. I just really want a space where I can talk about local current events, news, business openings and closures, infrastructure projects, etc.

I also liked going into other city's subs to see what's going on before travelling. In Reddit, they were always great spaces for restaurant recommendations, helpful tips and tricks, tourist traps to avoid, etc.

Not yet, I made a couple for discussions about whiskey and steam remote play (playing steam games on your phone and stuff). I just realized I should post the massive guide I wrote for the latter in the new community!

Mechanicalpencils is missing for me. I don't post there much on reddit, but I love lurking there. I hope they migrate.

[–] hydrospanner@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

r/pens and r/fountainpens too!

Like you, I am not terribly active there but I enjoy lurking on both.

I'd love to see a Minnesota Vikings subreddit and am thinking about starting one but am intimidated* at being not only a mod but the top mod. I've never been a mod before and don't want to mess it up haha

So far almost none of mine are on here. May have to change that.

(Lemmy uses !community@instance.tld for links, ~~and your instance will interpret it so you stay on your instance~~)

edit: Nvm, apparently links are relative on lemmy-ui? (Is that a security risk?)

[–] Andreas@feddit.dk 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The art sharing subreddits like Imaginary Network, /r/awwnime, /r/patchuu, /r/moescape and similar. I want to start an instance that automatically crossposts from those subreddits to the Fediverse, and users here can also contribute with artwork that fits the community's theme. It'll probably fetch the posts through RSS to avoid the API limits, but who knows if Reddit might shut that down too. So I'll have to wait until this API situation stabilizes.

I'm waiting for someone to re-create r/france here, as it seems you need an engineer degree to understand how to setup your instance :(

Hey fam ,

I created https://lemmydeals.com because most of the reason why I went to reddit was to find deals anyway. Hope you can go take a look!

One of my main subs was /r/cfb, I don't think it has transitioned yet... Hopefully it'll get up and running before football season starts.

[–] MonitorDeodorant@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Subreddits to discuss certain bands, or games, or tv shows. Yeah sometimes they got repetitive but it was cool to see memes and discussion about specific pieces of media. Even if r/Metallica has a post every day about how St. Anger is underrated. Or the subreddit for Battlefield 1 just complains about certain weapons in a game from 2015.

I follow a lot of niche hobby and some other communities that haven't come over yet.

A couple have started to shuffle on over but not a lot yet.

I also followed a lot (like a serious amount) of art subs that haven't seemed to come over yet. I basically followed most of the "imaginary[insert niche here]" subs.

[–] Zagaroth@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

FFXIV, most of the writing subs, Another Eden, I don't think FoundryVTT has moved yet, PF2E, there aren't nearly as many cute-animal communities yet, etc.
