I personally can’t wait to see communities like hiphopheads, internetisbeautiful, listentothis… join lemmy and become as active as they were on reddit. what are some of y’all fav?
Health-related communities, particularly those for specific medical conditions. Those are the communities that really become a lifeline for people, help them through diagnoses or just difficult times, and can serve as an excellent resource. I was active on r/diabetes_t1 on Reddit and am trying to get a community started here on Lenny.world (!T1diabetes).
Yes! Also kinda related, I liked r/SocialAnxiety and r/Dyslexia. It’s a place where we can go and help/encourage eachother.
I’m surprised nobody mentioned my absolute fav /r/askhistorians
And it needs to be well modded.
Please PLEASE get this one up and running! That place is a treasure trove of information. So much so, they should have their own website while maintaining a lemmy domain. That info should be disseminated across multiple platforms so it isn’t lost.
I miss women centric subs, especially thes ones with a mix of posts that foster discussion, memes, and support such as witchesvspatriarchy
Best of redditor updates because I want my stories lol
Specific subs for shows because I like reading episode discussions, often someone catches something I missed that gives more context or they catch clues and foreshadowing. Theories too. Or just seeing if anyone else had same thoughts I did! I think it will be a long time before lemmy is big enough to be close to that, and will probably only be newer shows.
Also just the sheer volume of content produced every day. I’ll hold strong though and not give reddit any traffic. Reddit was fantastic as a lurker, posting most anywhere large felt like whispering into a void. Lemmy is great for actually participating, I think it will be a long time yet until it’s as fun for lurking.
Same here - I hope more female-oriented communities get going. WitchesVsPatriarchy, TrollXChromosomes, and all the chaos of the Netflix Cinematic Universe reality shows were a blast on Reddit.
I have found !witchymemes@lemmy.world so far!
Thank you that is a great start! I have quite a few saved memes to start contributing as well. It doesn’t seem quite the same so I hope we have something else soon. I would be a terrible mod and still confused by most of this fediverse thing otherwise I would make what I want to see.
I just want to see enough folks from some of the gaming communities move over: (Most of these have small communities already, I just want growth!)
2007scape for the memes Satisfactory for the incredible creativity Nomanssky for the same reason ^ Forzahorizon for the weekly challenge discussions and screenshots FFXIV for the community ‘vibe’
Really any game with a fun online community, these are just a few of the ones I enjoy.
Yeah, Satisfactory for sure and satisfactoryporn for the incredible builds
The women’s communities. Everything from trollx to girlgamers to tallgirls
I also miss femdomcommunity because it’s one of the few sensible kink communities on the internet
This! Lemmy feels like such a sausage party right now.
Yeah like I can appreciate that it’s nowhere near as misogynistic as old Reddit was, but also I just want more women here
Excuse me, I identify as a hotdog
/S
The music production ones r/ableton r/audioengineering r/mixingandmastering r/maschine
yes add to the list: r/musicmaking, r/headphones, r/audiophiles, r/indieheads, r/WeAreTheMusicMakets, r/drumkits, r/bandcamp, r/vintageobsecura and I’ll be the happiest kid lurking around here
/r/resume was great, as well /r/cscareeradvice, and really any career centric subs. Being able to bounce career questions off of others is an absolute gold mine of information that only serves to forward the field.
The anime and manga communities are totally silent on Lemmy. Would be great if we can have some weeb juice flowing here as well.
Yeah I really just want those for the discussion threads and news
r/wicked_edge, r/nosurf, r/meditation
WickedEdge already exists on this platform, but it’s not active and doesn’t have the same community. These niche communities will not be the same as those on Reddit since many of the people are normies and don’t care at all about Reddit’s shitty platform. I would open some communities on my own, but I’m not an expert in these fields, like for example in shaving, and I couldn’t be of any help for other people.
r/intp. Also miss the active python and data analysis subs, I know there are python communities here but they seem quiet.
My ultimate guilty pleasure – gossip and snark communities.

Towards the end, the ones I read felt blatantly obvious just from the title. “Hey guys I said, “That’s not ok!” to my MIL because she drop kicked my toddler in the face for crying, AITA?”

I used to have such good conversations with my husband over AITA posts. We especially loved when our verdict ran counter to the circle jerk.

Normalnudes
IntermittentFasting
NoSleep
Written erotica, any of them.
The general “Music” and “Movie” threads because I did discover stuff on them as well as being able to suggest stuff.
But have been satisfied with some of these that are still small but growing - curlyhair, science fiction, cocktails (mine now), fermentation and sourdough. And overall happy to give up the faster moving subs and be here for the beginning time.
Non-English subs. They are starting but it will take a while to catch up.
Ideally all of the weird niche ones, like cheesemaking, niche japanese exclusive video games, and local ( city/regional) subs to name a few.
r/tekken is sorely missed. Same applies for r/starcraft. I guess there is a com for StarCraft, but it seems quite dead.
