What are some reddit communities you wish to see live and more active on lemmy?

I'm surprised nobody mentioned my absolute fav /r/askhistorians

I miss women centric subs, especially thes ones with a mix of posts that foster discussion, memes, and support such as witchesvspatriarchy

Best of redditor updates because I want my stories lol

Specific subs for shows because I like reading episode discussions, often someone catches something I missed that gives more context or they catch clues and foreshadowing. Theories too. Or just seeing if anyone else had same thoughts I did! I think it will be a long time before lemmy is big enough to be close to that, and will probably only be newer shows.

Also just the sheer volume of content produced every day. I'll hold strong though and not give reddit any traffic. Reddit was fantastic as a lurker, posting most anywhere large felt like whispering into a void. Lemmy is great for actually participating, I think it will be a long time yet until it's as fun for lurking.

Slightly related: someone needs to organize a celebrity AMA on Lemmy to let people know that there’s a new sheriff in town (or something like that).

I just want to see enough folks from some of the gaming communities move over: (Most of these have small communities already, I just want growth!)

2007scape for the memes

Satisfactory for the incredible creativity

Nomanssky for the same reason ^

Forzahorizon for the weekly challenge discussions and screenshots

FFXIV for the community ‘vibe’

Really any game with a fun online community, these are just a few of the ones I enjoy.

Health-related communities, particularly those for specific medical conditions. Those are the communities that really become a lifeline for people, help them through diagnoses or just difficult times, and can serve as an excellent resource. I was active on r/diabetes_t1 on Reddit and am trying to get a community started here on Lenny.world (!T1diabetes).

I wish there there were more parenting comms. You have a few low activity general parenting comms and a surprising amount of healthy dad comms (go dads!), but you don't have the break outs. I guess I'll shill my instance where I'm hoping more parents will pop up to

There are some more, but those are the ages I have kids in lol.

I haven't seen Photoshopbattles yet in my community perusing. Def one of my faves.

The music production ones r/ableton r/audioengineering r/mixingandmastering r/maschine

/r/resume was great, as well /r/cscareeradvice, and really any career centric subs. Being able to bounce career questions off of others is an absolute gold mine of information that only serves to forward the field.

Non-English subs. They are starting but it will take a while to catch up.

Also, just to throw this out there for anyone who isn't aware; some fine folks have made a site where you can search for communities across all instances. Check it out!

browse.feddit.de

Normalnudes

IntermittentFasting

NoSleep

Written erotica, any of them.

The general "Music" and "Movie" threads because I did discover stuff on them as well as being able to suggest stuff.

But have been satisfied with some of these that are still small but growing - curlyhair, science fiction, cocktails (mine now), fermentation and sourdough. And overall happy to give up the faster moving subs and be here for the beginning time.

For me, sports communities. Game day threads are a blast.

Lemmy needs more comics

The anime and manga communities are totally silent on Lemmy. Would be great if we can have some weeb juice flowing here as well.

r/therewasanattempt

The women’s communities. Everything from trollx to girlgamers to tallgirls

I also miss femdomcommunity because it’s one of the few sensible kink communities on the internet

r/writtingprompts by far my favorite community of all time and I hope it makes a resurgence

Other ones would be r/the10thdentist, r/nottheonion and r/askhistorians (they probably will never join since they have their own website to fall back own if it all goest to shit)

Lastly r/manga, I said this one as separate because I have seen a few but the community is not there yet, especially lacking features like what are you reading this month and at MOST having 15 subscribers

I fail to comprehend why there's no community dedicated to "Rock" music. This network, after all, was named after one of the most iconic rock stars of our era...

r/wicked_edge, r/nosurf, r/meditation

WickedEdge already exists on this platform, but it's not active and doesn't have the same community. These niche communities will not be the same as those on Reddit since many of the people are normies and don't care at all about Reddit's shitty platform. I would open some communities on my own, but I'm not an expert in these fields, like for example in shaving, and I couldn't be of any help for other people.

My ultimate guilty pleasure -- gossip and snark communities.

Tip of my tongue.

/r/CombatFootage and specifically the Ukraine War subs.

/dragonsfuckingcars and /r/carsfuckingdragons I just need them to exist

~~/r/cptsd~~ !cptsd@lemmy.ml

Edit: also

~~/r/fixit or alike~~ !homeimprovement@lemmy.world

/r/FindAReddit

~~/r/WowThisSubExists~~ !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca

/r/ActLikeYouBelong !!

I don't mean to be a Debbie downer but even I have trouble enjoying Lemmy because of some of it's problems/quirks. I don't think it'll be anywhere near as popular as alternatives with those problems present. I hate it but that's how I feel. I hope it gets better

If there is something you want, create it. Lemmy is new, and there are not a ton of people posting. Someone will need to do it first.

Some of the jokes were nice - with the best laughs coming from the replies and the bad puns.

r/babyelephantgifs

I sorely miss /r/PCGaming.

I know there are a few on here and I am going to try to post on them to try to get it going. Still a long way to go though.

It'll take time.

r/hardcore, r/bodybuilding, and r/steroids are the ones I'm missing the most. Instagram is my only source for hardcore punk now. I second r/hiphopheads too! I wish I had the time to moderate so I could start them myself.

I would love to see GameDeals and googleplaydeals on lemmy.

Arts (Printmaking, Graffiti, sculpture, calligraphy, typography, design), and all the SFW porn subs.

Also, I'm really amazed that https://lemmy.world/c/sourdough is already quite active.

Ideally all of the weird niche ones, like cheesemaking, niche japanese exclusive video games, and local ( city/regional) subs to name a few.

r/jeopardy, especially if former contestants are involved in the community like they are on Reddit.

Bandnames

Cyanotypes

Disneyvacation

Freecompliments

Genx

Interestingasfuck

Piratemetal

Selfawarewolves

Workreform

r/intp. Also miss the active python and data analysis subs, I know there are python communities here but they seem quiet.

I miss my hydrohommies
As for the good news : https://sopuli.xyz/c/hiphopheads

Yes, I absolutely loved listentothis. I think it was sort of losing user interaction towards the end but it was so great to comb through previous years to find great music.

We should definitely get another one up and running!

I'll really miss the location specific subreddits, those were super useful when travelling to find stuff only local redditors knew about. It helped get you off the beaten path.

All of them.

FFXIV, Steam Deck, ARAD

LinkedinLunatics, IAmTheMainCharacter for time wasting

Jobs, UKJobs for job search

Recrutinghell to know I'm not the only one in the hellhole

Soccer (activities are non existent here), BoxOffice, Entertainment, etc. for fun

Some of the smaller subs I used to frequent don't see as much traffic as I would like. Like cycling and edc. I just have to be the change I want to see. I will I swear, just need to fine some spare time.

All the self-help ones. Social Skills, Adulting, RBN...

Kustom - I had just started messing about with KLWP and building my own background when all this kicked off. There is a Discord but the sub was easier to search and see solutions and formulas.

Hoping !jailbreak@lemmy.ml becomes more active

I'm missing communities for specific games. Starcraft, stormgate, path of exile and the kind.

I'm sure more of them will start popping up/getting more active of the trend of people joining continues.

Certainly not the meme ones.

Seriously tho, Sysadmin and career related stuff in general, and fantasyfootball

A lot of the broader interest subs I followed have either migrated over or have local equilvalents.

I had a couple niche ones I miss. I work in hospitality so talesfromthefrontdesk is definitely one I miss, and I haven't seen a good version here as of yet.

Specific game subs are not as popular here yet, but honestly I am not sure how much I really need that. Rimworld is probably the only game I keep coming back to often enough to justify it, and I largely use discord for that. Only thing I use discord for really.

AreTheStraightsOk and AreTheCisOk

r/tekken is sorely missed. Same applies for r/starcraft. I guess there is a com for StarCraft, but it seems quite dead.

Bestofredditorupdates

Soccer

Noncredibledefense

I'm going to do my best to get /r/AcademicBiblical over in some fashion.

/r/credibledefense /r/zizek

Specific game subs like /r/victoria3 or /r/slaythespire

Those video subs that show crazy stuff

/r/terrifyingasfuck /r/crazyfuckingvideos /r/fightporn etc

If anyone knows a lemmy/kbin community that's similar I'd appreciate a share

I liked to browse /r/cd_collectors and /r/fragrance

I liked seeing /r/witchesVSpatriarchy on /r/All, but I never really followed them.

Edit: spelling.

I feel like ‘fan’ communities like Star Wars and Halo have a better chance at being positive communities with constructive discussion on lemmy because the community here seems like they want to genuinely care about discussion. Those types communities got to a pretty awful state on Reddit because the loudest ‘critic’ would always receive the most upvotes, despite usually having overly nitpicky and poorly thought out criticism.

Astrophotography Printedcircuitboard

Tip of my tongue.

I miss /r/accidentalwesanderson

humor

r/blankies and r/AubreyMaturin, please. Also a Montana community would be welcome.

r/skookum https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/skookum

(Shamless plug)

squaredcircle

r/rollerskating Also the many subreddits for the many shows I watch like The Walking Dead, Mayans, Black Mirror, etc.

Longreads

I like to live vicariously and lurk in city subreddits. (Los Angeles, Phoenix, Denver, etc...if it's a city, I will lurk). It's a little lonely over here in that regard.
