Indie game communities, I just love looking at niche memes you only understand if you have played those games, and don't let me get started on the amazing art people put in there. There are some talented and passionate people out there, I hope eventually some hop over here.

There was a lot of leftist communities on reddit that I hope survive in some form fuckcars, antiwork, fucklawns, breadtube.

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.

r/cancer It was a nice space to find support of other people going through what I'm going through.

All the cat subs. If I was having a shitty day I could always go to reddit and look at other people's cats.

The gardening subs always made me feel like I could do anything in my tiny garden as long as I put in the work.

r/Buttcoin

All the mycology subs, but I'm thinking of rebooting them here. All the synthesizer subs. All the subs with eerie places like r/AbandonedPorn, r/RustyRails etc.

I'm going to miss browsing r/all for a good laugh and interesting stuff. I'm going to miss stumbling upon random subreddits with topics and interests I didn't even know existed like r/Jarrarium, r/DesirePath or r/ThatBathroomMazeDream

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.

my first comment!

i’m going to miss formuladank. i’ll try to start every single sub i’ll miss on here though. my account is only a few minutes old

I'll miss clicking Top of All Time in all subreddits. In here I have to wait YEARS before I can find the Top of All Time content.

I'm gonna miss /r/buttcoin. It's a great place to watch crypto bros lose everything. How will I know when cz is arrested?

r/Fedora and r/ThinkPad. Those are the two I spent the most time in. I will also really miss my guilty pleasure subreddits like r/gaystoriesgonwild, r/Twinks, and r/GayKink. Haha.

If I’m being honest, I was a big browser of NSFW subreddits and I’m hoping that lemmy will grow and create a space for NSFW communities that are well-moderated and safe.

I’ll miss all my goofy cat subreddits. They were kind of my go to when I was having a crap mental health day.

I'm going to miss all the curly hair subs, it's a niche topic but something I feel like I know a lot about. I really wanted a text based of the main sub though, apparently I found r/curlyhaircare is like that. Going to not go on reddit though as much as possible.

To be honest a lot of nsfw ones :/

• r/Android
• r/androidafterlife
• r/androidapps
• r/antiwork
• r/CrackWatch
• r/DataHoarder
• r/fossdroid
• r/GameDeals
• r/MouseReview
• r/opensource
• r/patientgamers
• r/Piracy
• r/selfhosted
• r/soccer

It’s just cool to see the variety of refugees here sharing memories of their previous communities in the once glorious homeland made uninhabitable by the authoritarian regime.

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.

bestofredditorupdates, watercolor, embroidery, fitness, fundiesnarkuncensored, cooking.. there’s a lot. This is so sad and I hope Lemmy really takes off. And if it does I hope some of these talented developers make bad ass apps for it

Since i'm just starting to get into home lab and self hosting I'll miss r/homelab, and r/homelabsales

All the porn and nsfw content. Brings a tear to my eye.

/r/OnlyFans

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.

I loved r/hobbydrama, it was such a good place. :<

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.

r/sffpc, r/iiiiiiitttttttttttt, and r/techsupportgore mostly

So many...

Wallstreetbets, NonCredibleDefense, all the comedy and podcast subs dunking on Joe Rogan. Last couple years though I got heavy into NFL Meme War subs. Those had some top tier content during the NFL season.

i’m definitely going to miss r/BuyItForLife. it was really nice to lurk on there and find good quality products like darn tough socks being recommended to people. found my backpack there too and it’s the best i’ve ever had.

The medical subreddits. So, SO much information for people. When I was newly diagnosed with something, it was very helpful to go to the sub and see how others’ lives were, tips on management, and med side effects.

/r/history heavily moderated and has actual historical experts answering questions and has a big library of already answered questions.

Pretty sure AITA, TIFU etc were mostly badly written fan fiction lol. Some of those stories were so far from anything that could happen in reality. I hate being so cynical and critical of everything.. ignorance is bliss

r/crochet and r/lotrmems the most!
