This goes out to all the homies that don’t have the time/energy to moderate, and to the ones that do that would like ideas (If there’s been posts about this already then I’m srry)
I miss fantasy writers and magic building. I would even be willing to moderate them. But I lack any skills to contribute to them. Not to mention I’m worried that most people are not interested in move as writing subreddits struggle to get off ground.
I would so be game for that, am leaving for a trip, will be back at the end of the month, but after that, I’d love to help set it up.
Personally I’m just going to miss the oddly specific meme subreddits like r/breadstapledtotrees and r/suspiciousquotes
What I’m missing the most:
-
AmateurRoomPorn, FemaleLivingSpace, MaleLivingSpace and similars. Plenty of ideas on how to decorate my home, suggestions,…
-
OneOrangeBraincell, Flonkers, MurderMittens, ToeFeathers, PouchCatatoes and other ‘niche’ cat subreddits. I can survive with the already existing IllegallySmolCats and Cats, I guess.
-
GifRecipes, ShittyGifRecipes, ShittyFoodPorn. Ones for learning new stuff to cook, others… for learning what NOT to cook thankyouverymuch.
-
HistoryMemes
-
Tattoos
-
Submechanophobia
!shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca is one I saw pop up recently.
!gifrecipes@lemmy.world also.
-
My list
Funsies & Weird brainstorming
- /r/competitiveoverwatch aka /r/cow (I don’t play the game but I sure enjoy the juice)
- /r/hobbydrama (very diverse type of juicy dramas, miam!)
- /r/overwatchTMZ (/r/cow but extended)
- /r/valorantcompetitive (same reasoning for the OW one)
- /r/livestreamfail (don’t post there; but is fun to occasionally lurk and see funny stuffs and be up to date with the latest online juicers)
- /r/anarchychess
- /r/singularity
- /r/BestofRedditorUpdates
- and 20 more cute animal pictures/videos subreddits like /r/partyparrots, /r/happycowgifs, etc.
Stuffs I use for er… productivity! yeah yeah productivity, that’s right!
- /r/obsidianmd I enjoy seeing other people’s workflow and new tools being developed
- /r/chatgpt (Recently the main sub went to shit with the influx of new users so /r/chatgptcoding or /r/chatgptpro might be better lol)
Subreddits that I often get led by Google search engine and it would be sad if they were to go down perpetually since I would have a very hard time without them…
- /r/homelab
- /r/automation
- /r/selfhosted
- /r/datahoarder
- /r/android
- /r/sysadmin
- /r/kitchenconfidential
- /r/appliancerepair/
I’m also very interested in how some different jobs work so I subbed out to these to check on them occasionally… and they sometimes would provide interesting workflows/insights that I can a-hem, take inspiration from…
- /r/ExperiencedDevs/
- /r/accounting
- /r/uxdesign
There’s way more but I visit those a bit less, the problem is, I’m not sure if Lemmy can fill the void in my heart but if it does for those main ones (all above) then I think that I can permanently migrate from Reddit.
Don’t know about any of the others, but I saw Best of Lemmy Updates pop up yesterday.
I’ve seen a bunch of those! You should be able to find them via browse.feddit.de/
As others have said, anarchy chess is here already as is chatgpt
https://lemmy.ml/c/datahoarder
Is the most active one I’ve seen.https://kbin.social/m/DataHoarder
https://kbin.social/m/DataHorder
Also exist.
Very niche, but I would love to see a (bullet) journaling community on here. it was one of my favourite places to go on reddit. Also miss the fantasy community, but as I understand it, there are a lot of new communities in beta related to favourite authors and such.
I’d like to find a good archery community. I think I want to pick it up as a hobby, but don’t know where to start.
Me too, though there’s no shortage of good info on forums (archery talk forums specifically has a “so you want to get started in archery” guide).
The best advice, though, is to find a local club and ask to go on a beginner course using their equipment … different regions have different trends, and there’s usually a reason!
I’d like to see something similar to r/bigbangedmemes or r/blackholedmemes, these subs are about editing heavily a meme screenshot/image at the point to turn it into an un-understandable trippy image, at a point where it’s almost a form of art. They are still public on reddit right now so I don’t know if it’s a good idea to create an alternative here already.

Reddit’s Reddit. There’s no reason to worry about what they do or don’t have. If you want to make one, go for it!
Here are the subreddits I would miss the most:
- Am I the Asshole
- LegalAdvice
- Parenting / Daddit
- thingsmykidsaid
- whatisthisthing
…and all of the local/regional subreddits for cities / metro areas around the world.
Definitely all the question-answer subreddits, like AskScience, AskScienceFiction (though for the love of god please call it AskFiction this time), NoStupidQuestions, TooAfraidToAsk, ChangeMyView (with the Delta bot), AskMeAnything.
AskReddit equivalent already exists: AskKbin@kbin.social.
AskScience
Miss that :(
I could just go there, see a seemingly stupid question and be amazed by the professionality and detail of the comment section. A bit like XKCD - what if? on endless mode.
m/sinkpissers 😏
A big one I’ll miss is the Diablo subreddit. It was filled with contentious assholes, but the content was typically good.
don’t tell me you’re a Diablo Dad?
How else am I supposed to ignore my children?
r/hockey
Personally I don’t care at all, but I’ve got a few friends hoping for a good gun group similar to liberalgunowners.
I would like a video group like r/unexpected and r/kidsarefuckingstupid for funny vids to share with my wife at bedtime.
Right now I feel like a new interesting and active community is appearing every hour or two so I’m not in a rush, I’m enjoying watching the whole lemmiverse taking its first big steps
https://lemmy.world/c/kidsbeingderps has a similar idea as r/kidsarefuckingstupid as per the sidebar.
There’s also an unexpected on lemmy.ml but it’s dead so maybe someone with a bunch of good videos/gifs can start to populate it or make a new one here.
I need to see my “Imaginary” art again. There were so many subs with so much variety.
Aw yeah! I loved those! My favorite was r/imaginarycyberpunk!
A populated aquarium/fishkeeping community
I subbed aquariums, but the ones I really miss are ponds and wildlifeponds…
