What is a subreddit you wish had a presense on Lemmy?
What is a subreddit you wish had a presense on Lemmy?
As someone with CPTSD, OCD and Bipolar + psychosis, definetely mental health subs. Particularly suicidewatch.
Partyparrot. I just want to see more videos and photos of birds having a good time.
Like this guy.
Let me know if you make or find one! Sounds fun!
Why are budgies so adorable?! Best birbs. <3
I miss my daily dose of birb antics.
Ask Historians had so much high quality content and there strict moderating ensured it stayed that wau
Agreed on this, I love AskHistorians and even contributed a few times. I miss it a lot.
Agreed 100%. One of the few subreddits I really miss.
I just wish all the porn was over here.
lemmynsfw alt account + lemmit.online = both reddit and lemmy content
Divorced birds
Yes! They’re just like us (divorced). Except birds.
It looks like the bird's wearing a tie!! That makes me so happy for some reason.
/r/liberalgunowners is missed. I could chat about guns and simple gunsmithing, see neat stuff I didn't know about, all without the toxic right-wing boolshit.
We had sane discussions about laws and responsible ownership, stuff like that. People were kind, no judgement, unless one was deliberately argumentative and/or acting a fool regarding safety. Even then, the mods would shut down the trolls (without the banhammer!) and the community would offer advice.
It was really nice.
I miss that one too. Being a liberal gun nerd in Texas is weird. All the gun shops, ranges, and conventions are more about right-wing politics, police worship, and fetishizing the Confederacy than the hobby.
I buy everything online and have a nice FFL who I meet in his kitchen to do the paperwork. Also, I have a couple of acres of my own personal swamp to go shooting, so I avoid all the nuts.
AskLemmyAfterDark - it's healthy to have a place to have frank discussions about sexual health and safe kinkery.
okbuddyphd, shittymobilegameads, pizzacrimes, garfieldwithoutgarfield, just all the really stupid obscure ones that give me a chuckle browsing through.
Various TV Show subreddits....they just haven't made it over here yet. Personally, I'd love to see a dedicated instance for TV and movies.
There is a lemmy.film instance as I know.
I just checked them out and it seems to be focused on amateur film production and not necessarily on TV shows.
!futurama@lemmy.world is surprisingly active, but that's of course only one.
r/ElectroBOOM which is Mehdi's official subreddit.
As a Windows sysadmin:
- Sysadmin
- SCCM
- PowerShell
homelab
I've found an instance of Sysadmin ! here, with around 6k members (at time of writing)
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !sysadmin@lemmy.world
Yes, but it's quite inactive. That community basically died shortly after the Reddit exodus. Check the stickied Patch Tuesday megathread for instance, it hasn't been updated in two months, which shows that the mods have abandoned the community or don't care - and given that no users posted there either, it seems like users also stopped caring.
That sub is dead. Last post was two weeks ago with zero comments, and the one before was a whole month ago.
Vmware
I always found the sysadmin sub to have an air of bitterness around it. Instead, I focused on the hobbyist tech-subs (such as selfhosted). Grated, their issues have a smaller scope, but still...
To everyone missing a sub: open it on lemmy and be the first!
That's why !christmas@lemm.ee exists! I realize it's only me for now, but maybe someday I'll have people join me.
It is hard to just start conversations on your own but it really is kind of how you have to do it.
I did, that's why !amiga@sopuli.xyz exists!
Justrolledintotheshop
Thanks, but the most recent post was 2 months ago.
Hockey. Hockey is a huge part of my personality. I pretty much lived on r/hockey. I really miss having discussions about games, trades, players, etc. as well as sharing news.
There !hockey@lemmy.ca, but we need a lot more people there to get those discussions.
For our big list of communities in !canada@lemmy.ca, we linked the post in !hockey with all the teams. Thanks for running the community so diligently :))
Concur!
r/subredditdrama - hands down one of my favourite sources of reddit content. r/drama isn't my jam, way too much fascist apologia there.
r/printsf exists already but the reddit community is much more active than lemmy, I'm hoping some of the sf/fiction communities on lemmy can rival it at some point.
Regarding 1, there is !fediverselore@lemmy.ca
Subredditdrama was endlessly entertaining
Lots of game specific subs have virtually no presence here. Makes me sad
/r/prisonhooch. Fucking hilarious some of the stuff people came up with. One guy made beer out of non-alcoholic beer. Another guy brewed peas into pea-not grigio. There were several people who brewed Powerade into wine. I really miss that subreddit.
whatisthisthing
Even if there is a community, the pool of people providing answers in these sorts of utility subs is going to be a fraction of what it was.
Well, every now and again, someone needs to post on the reddit one saying "look at them misidentifying a thing on Lemmy".
They'll either be genuinely helpful types, and join us to help out, or they'll be "someone is wrong on the internet" types, and join us to be correct.
Obviously I have no idea if this would work in practice.
British panel shows
Maybe !britishtelly@feddit.uk would cover it?
Thanks!! Subscribed. Doesn't have the panelshow lineups that the subreddit did, but has links to some decent shows.
AskHistorians. You can still get it on Lemmit, though.
That sub was great and very well-moderated
/bonehurtingjuice exists on here, but it's like 1 post a month instead of an endless stream of stupid bullshit humor that hits just right.
I also miss being on a platform that has the community for whatever game I might be playing at the moment, from popular ones to niche-as-fuck. Even CDDA's subreddit is still more active on reddit than Lemmy.
Writingprompts.
Lots of high quality written content there.
Agreed. I dearly wish that sub was here
The Genshin fandom is much weaker here. I miss the endless *Mains communities with their useful guides, and the remarkable thirst of some of the groups :cough: /r/GenshinGays :cough:
Dude, there's so much on Lemmy I have been exposed to because I left /r, I'm hoping to get around to your community and be more active then, too. Maybe we could be communicants when I get there.
I have epilepsy, and a few rare genetic disorders - there wasn't much of a healthy community for them on Reddit, especially my weirder shit, but I would love to see at least Epilepsy/Neurodegenerative/connective tissue disorder communities have a bigger presence. A few exist, but don't have posts, etc. My spouse has encouraged me to be the one to post, but I'm afraid of screaming into the void, just yet.
I think you'd have plenty of people join an epilepsy community as it's fairly common.
ED? I’ll post if you make it, but I have a super mild form. Honestly it feels like a positive thing 95% of the time, so I wouldn’t want to, like, humble brag?
yessss I miss the disability community and all the smaller subs where you could talk to other people about very rare/specific medical topics. Time to go search for the EDS gang on lemmy, or maybe do some void screaming if I can build up the nerve (・_・;)
Bonehurtingjuice and dogelore
I think dogelore recently started up here, let me try and find it
Edit: no that was !dogeposting@lemmy.world
High Quality GIFs. There's a placeholder community but that's it.
r/headphones
hell yeah 🐈
R4R (or would it be L4L?)
Liked having conversations with people from various areas. Lemmy might not have the user base for it though.
Homeowners, lawn care, local area specific communities.
I wish the Framework community had moved over wholly. There's a lot more activity on Reddit than on Lemmy, and the comments are important, so the lemmit online bot can't replace it.
Counter-Strike. Pixel and Android betas.
I've wanted to open a string of video game subs on lemmy but i don't know what instance is best. It would have to be something that is ok with occasional porn and bad words (but not bigotry).
I miss the opera subreddit, crowbro, and beermoney. Those were all interesting and useful (I sure have made a lot of money from beermoney). However I'd really rather go without those than use Reddit.
Education subs like ApplyingToCollege, 6thform, uniUK, SAT etc.
I'm not a full Lemmy user because these constitute my primary usage of Reddit but still come around Lemmy sometimesThe humorous mental health subs. League of Legends (outside of pro league stuff).
There's an ADHD memes sub:
But you repeat yourself.
Good language learning communities, such as r/svenska
My country's subreddit.
Lol so the official Ontario sub got kind of out of hand during the pandemic, where they were simply banning any users who even questioned silly rules or mandates when it came to Covid (Ontario had many rules that simply didn't make sense or outright seemed counter productive in preventing spread).
It got to the point where an alternative sub was made, and it surprisingly got decently active. I think around 20k users at one point. The banter on that alternative sub was hilarious and was the only sub I really miss.
Tip of my tongue, Tip of my joystick and Sid Meier's Civilization. The first two subs have Lemmy communities (!tipofmytongue@lemmy.world and !tipofmyjoystick@lemmy.ml) but, sadly, they lack activity. r/civ is one of the only subreddits i'm still using, because it has lots of unique guides not found anywhere else.
What’s This Rock and What’s This Fossil. I was actually getting really good at my mineral identifications, I would try guessing the mineral before opening the three to see if I got it right or not. The fossil one because sometimes you got to see some really cool stuff, other time hilariously, bad fossils made with mosasaur teeth. And the occasional flint arrow head or hand axe but we’re not in the scope of the subreddit but still cool anyway.
AmITheAsshole. There's a few but they're all bots that repost Reddit content. No original ones that I've seen so far
-
Taskmaster the tv show or other general british panel shows.
-
An active cricket sub.
!britishtelly@feddit.uk perhaps?
Thats cool, also led me to a preexisting taskmaster sub. Thanks. The issue ofc as is typical of lemmy atm is inactivity
-
My town
Some mental health subs on here would be nice...
Personally, I'd appreciate more art subs being on here as well!
The anarchism subreddit.
There's a few small anarchist communities on here, but sadly they're mostly quiet.
That's what i've found.
/r/homelabsales and /r/hardwareswap
Also the buildapcsales, gamedeals subs. Although, my wallet is happier right now.
I really miss the community in r/woodstoving
I really miss submechanophobia.
You miss being afraid of pineapples under the sea?
People were posting great submerged pineapple material.
/r/hyenas
I miss my daily dose of yeens from /u/McUsername621
r/bjj the Brazilian Jiu-jitsu sub. The community here is pretty dead
I'm approaching extraction day, getting a little less than half my teeth pulled. I was lurking on r/dentures for quite a while before I left. It would be nice if that community were around here.
Just got an e-scooter so more content about those would be neat
r/NonCredibleDiplomacy and r/weezer. Two subs with insanely specific humor that I loved.
r/zombiesurvivaltactics was a nice place for serious conversation about imaginary scenarios.
r/SamHarris was a great place for rational and intellectual discussion overall. People on that sub were significantly more measured and considerate with other people even about stuff they disagreed with than people on reddit in general.
The first one sounds interesting as hell, I will create it a bit later, if nobody already did. If you did (hopefully, not on lemmy.world), please drop me a message with a universal link, I'd gladly help posting some content and even moderating the community.
There is https://sopuli.xyz/c/zombiesurvival but it's quite inactive
nocontext
/r/noncredibledefense
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works
What is needed to make the majority of reddit users switch so that they bring all subreddits with them?
Better mod tools, smoother onboarding experience, ability to block instances.
This is being worked on, but as of now, those can be blockers for a lot of people still on Reddit.
I would love to find a roadtrip community
Stable Diffusion. Of course there's plenty of Lemmy SD forums, but if that user base was here I'd be able to cut spezzit totally off
Roborock or robovac, would be nice to keep up to date on new products and share troubleshooting info with other robovac owners / shoppers, but building that community here isn't a task I'm up to.
Would have to say the r/imaginaryelections and r/imaginarymaps communities for alternate history. If anyone knows any lemmy/Mastodon communities for that it'd be appreciated!
R/Greebles and r/crabcats!
Niche communities, like one for the specific car I own. Also more car communities in general. I'm so tired of the Fuck Cars mentality here.
On a similar question, has anyone kept track of the lemmy equivalents of every (major) sub Reddit? Is there a community to find other communities?
There was a r/suzukisamurai sub I liked, but I'm probably the only one on lemmy who has one.
i rather miss ennnnnnbbbbby, was a real good nonbinary meme subreddit, but as i left reddit, no more :(
etymology
Something like KarmaCourt
Less one that I'm missing, more one that I'd like to see more lively and recognised by other communities outside of Lemmy:
Factorio
As well as a few other games.
It's a fairly technically minded game, which'd make it a great fit over here. In fact, there is a Factorio Lemmy community, it's just nowhere near as lively as any Factorio subreddit.
A lot of the location-based Ask subs. A lot of the Ask subs in general.
but mostly r/WhatsTheWord
Do you need a word?
Edit: anyone can ask me and I’m pretty good/will ask my family for English or German words. We come from a long line of Latin teachers, so, there’s a lot of dumb fucking words floating around.
No, I loved giving answers and reading other answers. It's so illuminating of how other people think about language.
I wish the hockey community would move over. The GDTs are dead here.
From what I can see in your post history, you haven't commented on a single one. I think I know at least part of why they're dead. Maybe that's a Lemmy account thing where I can't see it though.
But I can't say that I have gotten a few responses when I've been posting. Not always live during a game, but the beginnings are there, considering it's still preseason.
Sports in general.
WallStreetBets
r/gambiarra, funny brazilian subreddit about gambiarras (quick fixes/epic life hacks)
r/bulgaria
r/2balkan4u
Pokémon TCG subs- they’re here, but not active really.
/r/webdev and /r/formulae are the main ones I miss.
cricketshitpost
Icelandic shitposts
r/running
/r/MegaMan, /r/BattleNetwork
Rooster teeth and\or the f**kface pod should definitely have communities 😢 despite the recent changes I'd still like to keep up with their content!
AskScienceFiction
If exists here, but isn't nearly as active as one would like.
/r/CuratedTumblr, but more left-wing
RVLiving
Nuzlocke
KarmaCourt
Gintama. I love the anime and it was a really nice corner of reddit too.
r/fountainpens
🙁
analog photography mostly
Jeff Milton
Physiology
Gamindustri, the neptunia sub
/r/solar. I like solar power.
There's a few other niche subreddits too.
Home theater, make living space
r/Kappachino
One piece
This is kinda obscure in the grand scheme of things, and will realistically not going to happen, but I'd love if the /r/EthosLab community moved here :P
And of course, a bigger portuguese presence (I run a portuguese instance hehe).
Warhammer Fantasy Role Play
Alpinism would be nice.
And the backcountry and xcdownhill communities
Pokemon, League of Legnds and Path of Exile.
Serialkillers
There is creepywikipedia on lemmy that sort of stray he’s that itch for me. Lots of serial killer posts and some others
r/pyongyang
Fauxmoi cause I’m a gossipy b word.
Subredditsimulator
r/watchescirclejerk, and r/shitpostcrusaders.
And then all the miscellaneous gaming subs like r/deadbydaylight.
