I'm going to miss AITA. Even if someone makes it a community, it will take a long time to populate.

I guess it depends on which ones don’t move here. Right now it’s all of them, but that might improve later.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 year ago (7 children)

Weird niche ones like r/SpecEvoJerking. Speculative evolution is already super niche and that's a parody sub about it.

Is there a way of finding popular communities across the federated lemmyverse? And on a smaller scale can I find popular communities on my instance?

Edit: leaving for posterity, but! there’s a β€œlocal” and an β€œall” in the communities browser: https://lemmy.world/communities/listing_type/All/page/1

r/greebles for sure! I got into their Discord though!

[–] DancingHamburger@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (5 children)

All the cat subs. If I was having a shitty day I could always go to reddit and look at other people's cats.

BestofRedditorUpdates

So much unnecessary drama, but can't stop reading

For me it's the German ones. I moved to Australia in the late 90s, and they help me keep up with things a tiny bit, so the culture shock isn't too big on my rare outings back home.

Also cats. Cats are nice.

Not ashamed to say trashyboners. Someone's gotta stand up for the trash of this world.

That’s how these things work. Reddit took its time. I truly think that Lemmy will benefit from apps that make the experience accessible.

I'm really going to miss /r/writingprompts, I've written a lot of stuff for them over the years. Sadly I don't see a replacement popping up here yet and their mods also didn't bother with the blackout protest.

/AskAnAmerican - It's interesting to see what the rest of the world doesn't get about us.

I participated quite a bit in r/whatsthisbug and r/spiders helping identify bugs (mostly spiders) for people. It was something I really liked doing, especially educating people about how spiders aren't things to worry about. Guess I'll just head back to iNaturalist for that content.

Other than that, more niche gaming communities were a big one for me. r/puzzleanddragons is a mobile game I play often and the sub was super helpful for news and game discussion/guides. I hope it can kick off here.

I will miss all of the pev (personal electric vehicle) subs like electric scooter and electric unicycle. Seeing others on adventures and getings tips and news was great

Emulation-related subreddits, for one.

[–] harbo@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I miss the Apple related subreddits, that community hasn’t really seemed to move over yet.

It’s just cool to see the variety of refugees here sharing memories of their previous communities in the once glorious homeland made uninhabitable by the authoritarian regime.

[–] Lowered_lifted@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Some of the industry specific ones like supply chain or logistics or even insurance were fun to lurk, and get a sense of what people in the industry think of those outside it

I'm definitely going to miss the true crime/unresolved mystery/paranormal subreddits. I loved the CreepyAskReddit curation.

A whole bunch of the ones around tabletop games. Mini painting, terrainbuilding, some of the game-specific subreddits that always have loads of userafe content.

If anyone has spotted these communities here in federation space please let me know; I didn't find any so far.

[–] astronomy_geek@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago

After just getting started learning to do my own car maintenance, definitely the subreddit dedicated to my model of car

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

Specific game subs, especially smaller indie games

R/reddevils. We are trying to reform it here but it will take time

[–] DeathWearsANecktie@lemmy.fmhy.ml 7 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I'm hoping r/gunners can be reformed too. And r/soccer.

Good luck with reddevils. I'm not a United fan but I want to see all communities grow on Lemmy! Football subs are what I spend much of my time in on Reddit.

Well first off, I'm gonna miss my favorite nerdy subreddits. r/wow, r/Morrowind, r/Oblivion, r/Skyrim, r/Elderscrolls, and even r/trueSTL. Happy that Skyrimmods is here though!

Aside from that though, r/botchedsurgeries, r/amitheasshole, and r/hobbydrama.

The rest would be various animal subs, but hopefully, they find new homes quickly.

The vinyl releases sub. It's how I built my collection.

Really gonna miss the discussion threads for pretty much any (current-ish) tv show, always my go to after finishing an episode. Also asksciencefiction was a fun one.
