Just the really small ones i was subscribed to, Tasker will probably be my most missed one, hard to find another forum specifically for one app!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I really enjoy r/archery hope they make it here

agreed. r/infp especially, i always felt more at home there (even if my interests are more intp-like)

r/ultralight, r/myog and r/wildernessbackpacking

You can tell what I'm into.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Hello from [email protected], I always wanted more overlap between r/ultralight and r/myog personally, they go hand in hand. Stop by and say hi :)

A couple, I think. WoTshow is one I really liked. And exatheist is a tiny sub where a bunch of people who were once atheists of all different religions talk religious philosophy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

It'd be great to have an actual place that isn't just Christians screaming that LGTBQ+ people are of the devil and need to burn, and at the same time not have edgelord atheists decrying that they have figured out everything and are smarter than everyone else

This seems way too unlikely to happen, but r/askhistorians. It's an exceptionally well moderated (if a bit overzealous) community that allows for both the average person to ask seemingly impossible, very specific questions as well as academics to express their knowledge and passion for those very same super specific topics they find fascinating; but have difficulty finding an audience to listen to them in their day to day lives.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I'm really hoping for some quality archaeology/anthropology/history content as well, I started [email protected] for a kind of catch-all community (and yes, that's the best name I could come up with)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

r/kamenrider, r/supersentai or any of the tokusatsu subs for that matter

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

There's [email protected] and [email protected] they're practically empty currently, but hey! making a community takes a while

Yeah, I've already found most of these, thanks though πŸ‘ ☺️.

r/HobbyDrama or a more hobby oriented history community. Also r/AskHistorians or similar, although that one will take more effort and setting up than simply making the community. I personally use Reddit to see a couple memes and then read both of the subs I mentioned. I like seeing people who are passionate about a thing talk about the history of that thing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Hobbydrama It was kinda interesting hearing about the inner workings and happenings in hobby's you never even heard about.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm surprised there isn't a c/wtf yet..

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Waiting on r/linuxmasterrace tbh

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

It's pretty damn new, but the only reason I keep popping back on reddit is to go to r/HyruleEngineering. The problem is that it relies on the easiness of reddit hosting the video for these short clips which lemmy currently couldn't handle. Though, people there are dedicated enough to their builds and information that they would probably be the ones who would make burner youtube accounts to upload things.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

A VR (virtual reality) focused community would be nice, it has a very strong community across devices all things considered.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Late reply but I just randomly saw this and thought you might wanna check out [email protected] which seems to be the biggest vr community right now!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Awesome, thanks for the suggestion, subscribed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I'll definitely miss r/framework the most, the community on the subreddit is awesome

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I've seen a few people mention fighting games on here (e.g. Street Fighter). I'd be interested in that. The number of gameplay clips people would be sharing make me think it ought to be its own instance, though.

Also:

  • pens, fountain pens
  • mechanical keyboards
  • watches

Some communities have been created for those, but don't seem to have gained much popularity.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Eurovision is probably the one I'll miss the most from Reddit. The people I talked to their were real chill.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

r/woodworking would be nice.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Me too, but I'm don't feel confident starting the community... I was always a lurker and can't imagine moderating a community WAY more qualified than myself to share advice on DM'ing.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

r/Aviation and r/KerbalSpaceProgram equivalents would be welcomed by me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

lemmyfly.org has you covered for aviation!
