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

r/BestofRedditorUpdates I fall asleep reading posts, it's bad (edit, thankfully someone made one here /c/bestupdates)

r/PersonOfInterest because it's my favorite tv show, I'm really due for a rewatch when I think about it

I miss being able look up any niche thing I was into at the time and find an active community discussing it and making memes.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Nada. Nothing. I was there for the people, and the people that don't seem like they are just cavemen who figured out how to browse a website left Reddit and reformed every sub I was subscribed to over here already. I don't even have any specific novelty accounts to miss since every single one I knew of hasn't been around for a while as it was already, such as /u/shitty_water_colours.

illegallySmolCats, furniturerestoration, visiblemending. I love cat pictures and diy type shit.

Boru-best of redditor updates

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 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.

Reminds me that r/changemyview also really requires a large pool of participants to have value... Damn, I really liked that subreddit. I feel like it made me a better person.

Subs that deal with medical issues. It was nice being able to go to them for advice or to help others.

Such subs were already niche on Reddit, and given their often embarrassing nature, I don't think we'll see them on lemmy in any comparable form for a while.

I'll miss all my niche gaming subreddits. Path of exile, incremental games, and I even liked keeping an eye on the gacha gaming subreddit. So many more to mention like r/gamedeals, patientgamers, many more individual game subreddits.

Honestly, a lot of NSFW subs devoted to somewhat niche fetishes. I saw lemmynsfw.com started up as a separate instance for NSFW content, and I'm hoping at least some of these subs make it over there soon.

r/houseplants and r/food. I loved browsing aimlessly through all the pictures and seeing pets in the background.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

First time posting here, and still figuring it out. Excited about the new possibilities. I was a redditor for ever a decade. Throughout the years I've had several favorite subs, and some I simply followed because of the quality moderation and content like with r/AskHistorians. What I'm going to miss the most, however, is the reddit lore and history. The good, funny, bad, and even ugly. From the Swamps of Dagobah, to the rise and fall of u/Unidan.

It's been a good ride with reddit, but I'm excited to be part of a new start and new culture.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

R/daddit a big group of wholesome Bandit wannabes that I could really relate to.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Specific game subs, especially smaller indie games

r/ukraine I really hope to see something similar here soon.

R/fountainpens. Other forums exist, but they aren't (a) as easy to use (b) as welcoming to newbies, yet (c) still full of experts.

I'm guessing lots of hobby subs are like that.

I had just discovered that place too. That was a good one.

Still left the 170k sub I had as top moderator (and really only one of two active mods) and deleted my account of 10+ years on July 1st.

β€˜Cause fuck em’ that’s why.

Nosleep and its assorted subs... I've been reading there since it had roughly 300 subscribers. I really hope the community rebuilds here.

HobbyDrama and similar subs. They're the Fandom_Wank of the Reddit era and I honestly love every bit of it. I'll miss Rimworld, too.

r/PolandBall. I love the history jokes

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

/r/nobuy, they are a very supportive community.
