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

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

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

And, conversely, r/shitamericanssay is fun for a facepalm

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.

r/castiron r/cremposting r/absoluteunits r/old_recipes all my favorite corners of the internet

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

Cyberdeck & cassettefuturism

Jeopardy for daily show breakdowns

Local sports teams

A few gaming ones, but I suspect they're here somewhere too

Most of my favorites have a discord, but that just doesn't feel the same. Very hard to wade through all that chatter

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

My local city subreddit, r/stlouis. The fediverse channels for it are dead but hopefully that will change. Also r/personalfinance

COLLAPSE

Call me a doomer if you want, but i think we're gonna be way fucked a lot sooner than expected climate-wise

A lot of subreddits that have been said I'll also miss, but for me personally I'll miss the Math based subreddits I used to follow the most. r/badmath was a particular fav. I don't have many "math people" in my friend group so it was nice to have a place to chat about differnet math topics and learn. But hey, I'm sure with time we can expect a lot of those subreddits to find a home elsewhere. Hopefully here. I like it a lot so far!

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

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

I'm going to miss all of my smaller history/archaeology related subreddits.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

I miss r/neography. It was full of interesting conscripts by so many talented people. The hardest part about leaving Reddit was the loss of these niche communities that can’t be easily replaced over here. I also miss my country’s subreddit, it was nice place with interesting people and entertaining posts. I tried to make a replacement on Kbin but it’s just 8 people and I’m the only one posting. But this is only the beginning, the fediverse will only grow from here and we’ll start seeing these smaller communities appear.

The hilarity of /r/SubredditDrama

I'm going to miss all the weird niche subreddits I was a part of that will probably never show up here in force because there's just not enough people on Lemmy to begin the formation of such niche subreddits. The amount of users interested in those things on Lemmy will be proportionally smaller compared to the number on Reddit, and so it will make it just that much harder to have flourishing and active communities around those things.

I'll miss the meta subreddits like lostredditors, switcheroo, SubredditSimulator and SubSimulatorGPT2. I'll miss niche communities built around less mainstream games and shows. I'm really going to miss DaystromInstitute and SonicShowerThoughts.

Overall my biggest concern is over the giant stockpile of years of community answers to all kinds of questions. If Reddit falls what happens to all of that? How do we pick up the slack if it does?

r/mycology was an amazing community where people and bots would help identify mushrooms and other fungi pretty quickly.

Hey everyone, I just joined 5 minutes ago. Been a Redditor for 7y 2m. I’m actually really going to miss reddit and many of the communities such as r/idiotsincars, r/catastrophicfailures, and well a couple hundred more over followed over the years. I’m hoping I can find more community here though. I never felt connected to the users on Reddit. Maybe it will be different 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.

Wherever we live, subs for our local communities will be missed.
