Honestly, I think the more reliable curated information will be what I miss the most. I almost always append a Google search with “Reddit” - because the information and format are so much more reliable than the bot populated garbage sites.

Also, niche porn subs. 🫡

/r/AskHistorians - ruthlessly and efficiently moderated, but every single post a fascinating read. I should msg Zukhov to see if he wants to move ship to /c/AskHistorians.

I’m really worried for those who use third party apps and depend on r/stopdrinking. That community single-handedly helped me get sober.

I fear that someone who is on the brink of breaking sobriety and wants to reach out on r/stopdrinking, not being able to access it from the app they normally use would be just enough of a hurdle for them to give in and start drinking again.

Makes me really sad to think about since it can be a dark place and the people there are so genuinely caring.

Really going to miss my local subreddit.

We had a weekly rant thread and it was funny just seeing neighbors talk smack or bitch about silly little things.

I mostly will miss being able to google something and adding “reddit” to my search to search for public opinion on day to day issues and problems.

I’m going to miss many of them, I’m a real reddit junkie. But I’m leaving tonight and don’t expect to be back.

Most missed: Witches vs. Patriarchy. Can’t seem to find a lemmy equivalent.

Edit: my first comment!

all of the weird, super-specific cute pages. illegallysmolcats, illegallysmoldogs, airplaneears, attackeyes, puppybellies, oneorangebraincell, stealthbombers, scrunge, peanutwhiskers, toebeans, whatswrongwithyourcat, crabcats, huskytantrums.

I… may have an addiction.

Not a subreddit, exactly, but I’m going to miss /u/poem_for_your_sprog and /u/Schnoodle_Doodle_Do. They made browsing so much better - I loved unexpectedly coming across one of their poems.

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

Definitely r/BestOfRedditorUpdates

I just want to find a place where I can say “Taiwan is number one” and “Putin is a bitch”.

Well, we won’t miss anything if we move everything here. 🤷‍♂️

I miss r/quilting and r/sewing. As a crafter, the knowledge I gain from these type of subs is invaluable

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.

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.
