The gardening subs always made me feel like I could do anything in my tiny garden as long as I put in the work.

I'm gonna miss /r/buttcoin. It's a great place to watch crypto bros lose everything. How will I know when cz is arrested?

Game specific ones. /r/hyruleengineering and /r/darktide as recent ones.

All the /r/_irl communities. The later seems like one I could probably just start and post in, even if no one else sees them.

r/Fedora and r/ThinkPad. Those are the two I spent the most time in. I will also really miss my guilty pleasure subreddits like r/gaystoriesgonwild, r/Twinks, and r/GayKink. Haha.

I'm gonna miss none of them because they will all come here

my first comment!

i’m going to miss formuladank. i’ll try to start every single sub i’ll miss on here though. my account is only a few minutes old

I'm going to miss all the curly hair subs, it's a niche topic but something I feel like I know a lot about. I really wanted a text based of the main sub though, apparently I found r/curlyhaircare is like that. Going to not go on reddit though as much as possible.

I’ll miss all my goofy cat subreddits. They were kind of my go to when I was having a crap mental health day.

r/feet

If I’m being honest, I was a big browser of NSFW subreddits and I’m hoping that lemmy will grow and create a space for NSFW communities that are well-moderated and safe.

Nosleep and its assorted subs... I've been reading there since it had roughly 300 subscribers. I really hope the community rebuilds here.

HobbyDrama and similar subs. They're the Fandom_Wank of the Reddit era and I honestly love every bit of it. I'll miss Rimworld, too.

I'll miss clicking Top of All Time in all subreddits. In here I have to wait YEARS before I can find the Top of All Time content.

There are so many… I used the platform for 8 years and really learned something new whenever I opened the App… I hope a lot of them will find their way over here.

All the porn and nsfw content. Brings a tear to my eye.

Since i'm just starting to get into home lab and self hosting I'll miss r/homelab, and r/homelabsales

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

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

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

The medical subreddits. So, SO much information for people. When I was newly diagnosed with something, it was very helpful to go to the sub and see how others’ lives were, tips on management, and med side effects.

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.

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.

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".

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.

Honestly, a lot of NSFW subs devoted to somewhat niche fetishes. I saw lemmynsfw.com started up as a separate instance for NSFW content, and I'm hoping at least some of these subs make it over there soon.

r/StupidFood, I need my daily dose of stupid and disgusting food videos :(

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)

Indie game communities, I just love looking at niche memes you only understand if you have played those games, and don't let me get started on the amazing art people put in there. There are some talented and passionate people out there, I hope eventually some hop over here.

I might be older than a fair amount of you on the fediverse, but I'm going to miss Daddit. It was a super supportive community. I'm also going to miss nosleep, I really enjoyed a lot of those multi part stories! Other than that, I think I'm just going to miss all the random stupid posts I saved over the years and went back to here and there for a good laugh.

r/talesfromtechsupport

r/PolandBall. I love the history jokes

r/LOTR for sure... Thinking about that one makes me sad.

r/WhatIsThisThing, r/TipOfMyTongue, and similar subreddits. Some of the simplest and best examples of the power of crowdsourced knowledge. Take a simple question with a simple answer that is basically impossible to search through conventional means, but through the power of those communities you can get your answer in minutes. Simply amazing.

Lemmy is going to have to get huge before it can really replace them. :/

They'll come, I'm sure, but many craft and hobby-based subreddits, including r/wood, r/cardistry, r/MUD (or MUDs?). I'm looking to external sources for that type of learning new skills or topics.

I don't really care for endless memes and shit posting, but deep content takes more time and effort, so patience seems necessary.

R/leaves has been a mixed bag-- lots of repetitive questions, but also some amazing and human stories.

I'll miss /r/maliciouscompliance...

IdiotsInCars, RBI, aspergirls, and a lot of mental health subs.
