I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already.
Despite that, some of my hobby ones still aren’t here. NFL exists, but it’s the same as nothing so far. Soccer I couldn’t find at first, maybe today it already does? Also, no sign of fantasy football.
I also followed a bunch of History subs, but looks like most people in Lemmy only care about science and technology.
Tell us, what is missing for you?
Welcome everyone! Just as a PSA, here’s a cross instance community explorer: https://browse.feddit.de/
I’m trying to be the change I want to see in the world https://lemmy.ml/c/hydrohomies
Most of my intrests are there and have some activity. Mainly the computerstuff and all. But others exist but aren’t active. Take for example kpop, japanese music, horses, the elder scrolls. I wouldn’t mind a community for western style RPGs as those are nearly the only games I play, with a few exeptions. General gaming ones seem too general for me, too little I care about.
I am trying to post here, but also don’t want to spam a community with only my posts and make it looks like some kind of echo chamber. Feels like a delicate balance on the (nearly) inactive ones.
I’m missing witchesagainstthe patriarchy, mommit, and quilting. Everything else is here and I’m going to get more familiar this weekend and maybe start some groups
I’d love to see WitchesAgainstThePatriarchy again! Looks like communities on Lemmy.ca are fairly easy to create. I’ll play around with it for a bit and see what it’s like.
Hi all! I’m a Reddit refugee. This is my first comment here. I think I’m gonna lurk for a while and figure out how this works
Try stuff out. Once it clicks, it’s beautiful. Took me a moment, but now I’m mostly flying.
Yes, actually. r/programmerhumor and r/anarchychess although on different instances are just like they were over at reddit.
Can you share the links to those? Thank you
Not sure about chess, but [email protected]
Yes but there’s only 7 subscribers and I’m the only post :(
Then again it’s a niche community about a fantasy series, I’m not surprised it doesn’t have much going on yet.

I wish there was something like AskHistorians but I highly doubt I’ll ever find something that good without a solid moderation team and very strict rules. Feels like it will either be Reddit (and fuck that to be honest) or nothing.
I still can go through rabbit holes on Wikipedia at least so there’s that.
I didn’t think about how sad it will be to lose askhistorians 😞
I’m still waiting for an SBC Gaming/handheld community and more fashion communities.
I would start them myself but ive been super busy recently :(
Yeah, I was quite disappointed to see that most, if not all, subreddits I follow had already shut down on Reddit. I mean, there’s r/learnjapanese, r/fitness, r/iwanttolearn, r/piracy, r/nootropics… I could go on and on. I’m actually considering creating a Lemmy community in place of r/chineselanguage, since I see nothing of the sort has been created yet here. However I’m quite hesitant, since I don’t really have the time nor interest in moderating a community, so… maybe I’ll just wait for someone else to create it instead?
Haven’t seen anything CSGO or CSGO2 related yet. :(
Nope, not yet, unfortunately. The majority of them either hasn’t migrated here yet, or has a low amount of subscribers. Hopefully, more of them starts migrating here soon.
The ones I frequently browse that I doubt will migrate here are probably r/characterai, r/choiceofgames, and r/hostedgames.
I haven’t seen r/gamedeals and r/livestreamfail here yet, but their amount of subscribers is pretty high compared to the other subreddit I’ve listed, so I think they’ll probably migrate here soon.
But at least the country I live in has made a community here already. The amount of subscribers is still pretty low, but some people in there have been making a few posts and comments recently, so hopefully it gets more active soon.
I created mine at /c/guitars , I’m not sure if the reddit community at large will join though. I’m hesitant to push it anywhere, it feels like sleazy self promotion. I just wanna talk about my hobbies with other hobbyists, and leave all the corporate greed back at reddit.
I hate to say it but shitposts and circlejerks are a bit part of my reddit browsing to lighten the mood.
Otherwise, trash like terriblefacebookmemes and idiotsincars was great entertainment for some reason…
I don’t know why I am like this.
Edit: to extend on this, seeing a post about some crazy shit play out and then reading everyone react to it is so much fun.
