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 think so. Not sure if it's official - as in, done by the mods - but there seems to be a few people over there already! CasualUK over on reddit was my favourite sub, and https://lemmy.world/c/ukcasual seems to be the place to be now on Lemmy.

I’m only missing ProgrammerHumor tbh.

Some have, some haven't.

Two which haven't are /r/sweden and /r/languagelearning hopefully they'll come soon.

It has, but it's quite empty yet. There are some posts, but I can seem to be able to reply sometimes. I use the "Jerboa" app and I get a "language not allowed" error. Anyone knows how to fix this?

I scanned quickly through the comments here so I may have missed any mentions, if there were any... But my suggestion is: there should be a master/stickied list of equivalent subreddits. So in the future, people can just google [subreddit name] + lemmy (or kbin or beehaw etc etc).

Preferably the same exact subreddit name. Or are those subreddit names owned by Reddit? Can they come after us?

Game specific ones like satisfactory mostly. And AITA is entertaining and infuriating.

[–] airbussy@lemmy.one 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I got very lucky, there is a whole instance dedicated to flight simulation and aviation now! lemmyfly.org if anyone is wondering.

My subreddit list on Reddit was quite long, so it'll be a while until I have a comparable list with silly communities.

I mostly used /r/Denmark. Now I use the feddit.dk instance, but it isn't officially supported by the /r/Denmark mods.

[–] Mithre@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

There's a bunch of creative writing type subreddits that I lurked on; hfy, writingprompts, fanfiction, that sort of thing.

[–] lckdscl@whiskers.bim.boats 4 points 1 year ago

I need a r/EnoughMuskSpam

It has not, but im considering making a lost media community on Blahaj Zone.

[–] jerry@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

/r/welding /r/machinists /r/cherokeexj /r/jeep made it though (and some wrangler community... so, yay?)

I just started !beatsaber@lemmy.ml hoping to see the Beat Saber subreddit migrate over but I'm not sure of the future direction. Be the change you want to see!

[–] Aninjanameddaryll@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

A user migrated one, I migrated another. Neither have had activity worth mentioning.

There's a handful of others I used heavily that haven't though. I'm missing r/metalmemes in a bad way lol.

For r/soccer there’s !soccer@lemmy.ml although I’m hoping !football@lemmy.ml takes off instead.

It doesn’t look like there’s enough sports related content so something like !sports@beehaw.org might have more engagement.

Looks like no videos? Maybe linking to peertube?

It's not much but it's honest work... I remember finding this sub the first time and was blown away that I wasn't alone! !futuramasleepers@thesimplecorner.org

No, but all things in due time.

[–] Crylos@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Esoteric one for all of you … r/faceting used to discuss faceting gemstones. Also r/gemstones … what can I say it’s a hobby I enjoy. 😁

[–] iorale@lemmy.fmhy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

No and I doubt they will, I'll have to look for an alternative to get my mexican memes and news.

[–] oxideSeven@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Not yet. I really hope people start coming over though. Things like Unraid were a HUGE resource. Maybe stuff like BuyItForLife and so on.

I used reddit for crowdsourcing info on products and tech support.

[–] _6q@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

As a non American user, I recently struck gold finding r/USDdefaultism. It'd be nice if the need for this kind of sub doesn't migrate to Lemmy as well though.
