Subreddits you are going to miss?
Subreddits you are going to miss?
I'm going to miss AITA. Even if someone makes it a community, it will take a long time to populate.
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.
Subs that I used (and will miss) (Also no NSFW subs here)

Honestly, a lot of NSFW subs devoted to somewhat niche fetishes. I saw lemmynsfw.com started up as a separate instance for NSFW content, and I'm hoping at least some of these subs make it over there soon.
r/AskHistorians. I don't think a sub like that can just be remade out of nowhere
To be honest a lot of nsfw ones :/
Comics. I don't think a lot of comic creators will start posting here, so can't interact with the creator.
With that, also not sure about editing like bonehurtingjuice.
Also, potentially somewhat nsfw subs dedicated to specific people. Somehow I doubt the Lemmy community in general has much interest in that. Too mainstream I guess?
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.
Just the specificity of communities you could find.
To name a few I've used frequently the past few months:
r/hardcore
r/doommetal
r/SuccessionTV
r/TheSmashingPumpkins
r/[my college]
r/[the town where I live]
I love lemmy but so far the userbase just isn't big enough to fill a lot of the niches I'm looking for. I'm excited to see the community grow though and I'm hopeful about the future.
I definitely miss knowledge stuff like r/eli5 r/nostupidquestion r/space r/science r/todayilearned
I browsed reddit a lot learning new stuff everyday while drinking my morning tea. But the thing I miss the most are the comments. So many posts got debunked or verified or explained even more with sources in the comments. Because of course there is a guy or a girl somewhere learning all about one type of drywall installation for 30+ years telling everyone why this wall installation in the gif can only be in 5 mile radius in Norway.
I'm someone that doesn't have many friends or many people to talk to about life and it's dilemmas. So when I had any sort of problem I often went to advice type subreddits to talk it out. So yes AITA was one. But also AmIBeingTooSensitive, Relationships, OffMyChest, etc. And I'm a mom so parenting subreddits were a good resource. And also subreddits like LoseIt and PetiteFitness were helpful because I struggle with my weight.
But one thing I noticed before all the drama was that the people on reddit got more and more hateful. Instead of trying to help the poster, they'd tried to find more to the story to make them this evil person. And they'd completely fabricate a separate reality and just tear OP a new one based off of assumptions.
So I was already kinda done with Reddit before the drama with 3rd party apps. I knew that it was causing me more problems than help. I had already started telling myself to stay away. It's toxic. So I'm happy to have an excuse to get out.
So hopefully an alternative emerges with nicer people. Or maybe I should just go find friends.
I'm not going to miss any, because we are going to recreate them here! :)
I won't miss many individual subs, but I will miss the totality of communities.
I will miss that, if I had a problem or question about X, there was almost always a sub for X, and it was usually the best place to get information from people that have some sort of clue.
Example: when it came to weird behaviors from my Samsung Odyssey G7 monitor, /r/Monitors was the only place with clear, focused discussion about it. The Samsung web forums had some people complaining too, but nobody actually sticks around the Samsung forums to have ongoing discussions, so getting a full picture of what people are experiencing was a lot harder. Plus, those kind of forums are always filled with a lot of Yahoo Answers quality of posts, so you have to sift through so much junk to find any usable info.
I've had this experience so many times with Reddit. That's what I'm most afraid of losing.
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.
/r/apolloapp
No time like the present! This place is 10 days old, so get making the places you wish to see :) I intend to get NoSleep an early start, but am far from experienced enough. That's fine though, it's all new for everyone here
I'll miss the meta subreddits like lostredditors, switcheroo, SubredditSimulator and SubSimulatorGPT2. I'll miss niche communities built around less mainstream games and shows. I'm really going to miss DaystromInstitute and SonicShowerThoughts.
Overall my biggest concern is over the giant stockpile of years of community answers to all kinds of questions. If Reddit falls what happens to all of that? How do we pick up the slack if it does?
r/todayifuckedup
While most of the stories are fake, I enjoy a subreddit that shows that my fuck-ups aren't so bad, after all.
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
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.
I will miss AITA too but also not really.
I miss how it was before it became popular. I liked using it to gain a different perspective on things and to see what my own personal bias lies.
Now it’s just full of ragebait and trolls. Seems like a lot of the posts are just people trying to gain popularity through tiktok or YouTube.
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.
/r/anime_titties, which despite the name was a world new aggregator sub that did a great job of not being too euro-centric. The best part that it brought people from many political ideologies and countries, so it was far less of an echo-chamber than most news subs. It still trended left, but it was a good mix.
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.
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.
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.
I think losing the ability to lurk in active communities of people I disagree with politically. I would never engage as it didn't seem right, especially down/upvoting, but It was always interesting to see things from the other perspective.
So places like r/tories, r/conservative, r/prolife, r/liberalgunowners - as a guy from the UK a lot of the subjects discussed in a few of those didn't affect me but I always prefer seeing things from both sides (even if I would never agree with them)
r/PolandBall. I love the history jokes
r/AskHistorians - mostly because of the unprecedented quality of moderation r/MaleFashionAdvice - helped me appreciate fashion and nice clothes
Hey everyone, I just joined 5 minutes ago. Been a Redditor for 7y 2m. I’m actually really going to miss reddit and many of the communities such as r/idiotsincars, r/catastrophicfailures, and well a couple hundred more over followed over the years. I’m hoping I can find more community here though. I never felt connected to the users on Reddit. Maybe it will be different here.
r/castiron
Such a friendly community, always good vibes
Several of he hobby ones. Ben Eater (6502 based computers, 8 bit computer), local ones, history/science based ones, infosec/sysadmin/etc. ones. There are some Lemmy based ones, but it'll take a while to build up. I'm hoping that I can contribute to them and see them grow a bit. But, others are just where I could comment and enjoy as I lack the real knowledge to contribute very much (the history/science ones that required more in-depth knowledge and not just a "Wikipedia degree of arts of internet research for obscure questions".
All of them. There’s so much collective knowledge stored in the comments, posts and subreddit menus, and it’s going to disappear. Stupid spez
To be honest, I won't really miss any specific subreddit. Many of the niche and hobby ones that I cared for, I would not subscribe to, because of the low-effort posts.
I will miss site:reddit.com most of all.
Well first off, I'm gonna miss my favorite nerdy subreddits. r/wow, r/Morrowind, r/Oblivion, r/Skyrim, r/Elderscrolls, and even r/trueSTL. Happy that Skyrimmods is here though!
Aside from that though, r/botchedsurgeries, r/amitheasshole, and r/hobbydrama.
The rest would be various animal subs, but hopefully, they find new homes quickly.
I am going to miss just a lot of the lighthearted stuff that gave me an escape from work: HighQualityGIFs, WallStBets, funny, holdmycosmo, etc
I sure hope people aren't deleting all their old useful guides and troubleshooting posts. Yesterday I was playing Stardew Valley, I had a simple question, so I duckduckgo-ed it and found some promising links on r/StardewValley, but StardewValley was private. Very frustrating. I hope this isn't the norm. So, so far...that. I miss StardewValley. Besides that, I will miss r/bestofredditorupdates
First time posting here, and still figuring it out. Excited about the new possibilities. I was a redditor for ever a decade. Throughout the years I've had several favorite subs, and some I simply followed because of the quality moderation and content like with r/AskHistorians. What I'm going to miss the most, however, is the reddit lore and history. The good, funny, bad, and even ugly. From the Swamps of Dagobah, to the rise and fall of u/Unidan.
It's been a good ride with reddit, but I'm excited to be part of a new start and new culture.
r/WhatIsThisThing, r/TipOfMyTongue, and similar subreddits. Some of the simplest and best examples of the power of crowdsourced knowledge. Take a simple question with a simple answer that is basically impossible to search through conventional means, but through the power of those communities you can get your answer in minutes. Simply amazing.
Lemmy is going to have to get huge before it can really replace them. :/
There were the time-sucks like r/amitheasshole that I loved, but what I really miss is the practical every-day subs where people shared valuable information. I am really into vegetable gardening, mechanical keyboards, and a few other hobbies and it was great to go to those subs and ask questions or get information. Vegetable gardening was particularly helpful in the last month so I am really missing it! Also, I was really active in a sub for people with type 1 diabetes and that was a huge resource in my life. Really missing that one.
They'll come, I'm sure, but many craft and hobby-based subreddits, including r/wood, r/cardistry, r/MUD (or MUDs?). I'm looking to external sources for that type of learning new skills or topics.
I don't really care for endless memes and shit posting, but deep content takes more time and effort, so patience seems necessary.
R/leaves has been a mixed bag-- lots of repetitive questions, but also some amazing and human stories.
/r/nobuy, they are a very supportive community.
All my hobby subreddits (origami, bouldering, cubers). Not nearly as big as a lot of other subs but they're great
Console and individual game ones mostly, also my local subreddit (japanlife). I'm sure I'll learn to live without them eventually, but I'm just so used to that structure that it's going to be hard at first...
The thing I will miss the most though is how RiF allows me to instantly jump to a subreddit just by typing a part of its name, no need to subscribe or anything. This is how I've been browsing for years, so having everything combined together is hard to get used to. I'll manage in time, hopefully.
r/HFY
r/HumansAreSpaceOrcs
r/TwoSentenceHorrorEdit: The communities for HFY and Humans are Space Orcs in the Fidiverse
HFY
[email protected]
https://lemmy.world/c/hfyHumans are Space Orcs
[email protected]
https://sh.itjust.works/c/hasoMy local country subreddit. There was some country spesific humour there that are hard to find elsewhere.
I’m going to miss the non-technical subreddits I visit. I’m sure all the ones geared toward techy people will end up migrating, but the others… I’m not sure. And I’m not interested in running anything myself, it’s more responsibility than I want. The niche ones will be hard to find as well - sometimes I just want pictures of snakes with hats!
- r/thesims
- r/fountainpens
- r/snakeswithhats
- r/shittygifrecipes
- my city’s subreddit
People are going to hate me for this but I'll miss the furry subreddits like r/furry and r/furryartschool, there's a lot of cute and wholesome art posted there.
Also going to miss r/AromanticAsexual that was a good support community to discuss aspects of being aromantic-asexual and the hardships that come with it.
I'm really hoping that they'll eventually come here to Lemmy.
Wherever we live, subs for our local communities will be missed.
I'm a bug enthusiast, so insect specific subreddits like r/moth r/weevil r/entomology
Game ones for all my random niche games I like.
But also I have a lot of health problems so going to those specific subs with my specific problem and knowing I'm not crazy felt really liberating. I know there's a new disability thing on here, but collectively being in a community with the people who have my specific problem made me feel less alone.
I was always a fan of the video subs like public freakout and crazy videos, I'm gonna miss those
r/castiron r/cremposting r/absoluteunits r/old_recipes all my favorite corners of the internet
R/daddit a big group of wholesome Bandit wannabes that I could really relate to.
Is there a way of finding popular communities across the federated lemmyverse? And on a smaller scale can I find popular communities on my instance?
Edit: leaving for posterity, but! there’s a “local” and an “all” in the communities browser: https://lemmy.world/communities/listing_type/All/page/1
r/AITA, I second that one r/politics r/AskReddit r/News r/Rap r/Unpopularopinion r/Genz r/cars r/LateStageCapitalism
As a regular user of those subreddits, I'm going to miss them
r/aspiememes
The meme / shit post subs /wetlanderhumor /cremposting /shittydaystrom /aspiememes /tenagra /adhdmemes /dankchristianmemes /mathmemes
And then local subs, cause love me some local drama.
r/greebles for sure! I got into their Discord though!
The vinyl releases sub. It's how I built my collection.
I guess it depends on which ones don’t move here. Right now it’s all of them, but that might improve later.
Let's create them here, this could be the beginning of something beautiful!! Btw, Lemmur or Jerboa like app for Lemmy? 🤔
r/mademesmile , wholesome but with more substance than just memes.
several shitpost community, gamedev community like r/unrealengine r/cryengine, non-tech communities like r/limerence r/socialskills r/adhd, and probably some game community like r/kingdomcome, and more non-tech communities that are actively talk & shitpost about life, human, movie series, music band, youtube community, etc.
r/tumblr & r/curatedtumblr because they post some of the most interesting stuff from Tumblr instead of me searching for them by myself.
r/ThinkPad because they're my source of porn
r/AnarchyChess because en passant jokes are unironically funny to me somehow. I myself don't subscribed to AnarchyChess or playing chess myself lmaooo
A huge chunk of anime subreddits, some nsfw subs, mealprepsunday and 1500isplenty, suggestmeabook, antimeme, copypasta, coolguides, collapse support, and my city's subreddit (I get to know more about my city, since my residence is far away from the main center of activity). And those small communities for singleplayer rpg mobile games I found interesting. I know they're never going back, most people won't even bother with mobile as a platform for games anyway...
A whole bunch of the ones around tabletop games. Mini painting, terrainbuilding, some of the game-specific subreddits that always have loads of userafe content.
If anyone has spotted these communities here in federation space please let me know; I didn't find any so far.
/r/warframe seems like a long ways to go to get DE to have a presence here.
/r/homeautomation, but not its relentless promotion of HomeAssistant
/r/permaculture which always had inspirations and answers
I participated quite a bit in r/whatsthisbug and r/spiders helping identify bugs (mostly spiders) for people. It was something I really liked doing, especially educating people about how spiders aren't things to worry about. Guess I'll just head back to iNaturalist for that content.
Other than that, more niche gaming communities were a big one for me. r/puzzleanddragons is a mobile game I play often and the sub was super helpful for news and game discussion/guides. I hope it can kick off here.
Emulation-related subreddits, for one.
A bunch.
r/guineapigs - it was very helpful for new pig owners, and a great guinea pig fix when you're at work.
r/disney* - for a Disney parks nutcase like myself, the various Disney park related subreddits helped me get over the time between visits.
r/bestofredditorupdates - I get frustrated reading posts and not having any idea of how things ended up, but boru allowed me to indulge my interest in others' stories without getting frustrated by the lack of closure.
The list goes on and on.
r/imaginarysliceoflife
Some of the industry specific ones like supply chain or logistics or even insurance were fun to lurk, and get a sense of what people in the industry think of those outside it
I think I will miss r/peoplefuckingdying, had a few laughs with that one.
r/houseplants and r/food. I loved browsing aimlessly through all the pictures and seeing pets in the background.
A lot of the smaller communities, and political ones.
And I'll miss the history, like, we have subreddits going years back. Subreddits full of stories and whatnot.
Hopefully it kinda mulls over in a few days, I dont really see it resulting in anything too permanent. Though I'm often wrong.
After just getting started learning to do my own car maintenance, definitely the subreddit dedicated to my model of car
I'm going to miss all the ones that I subscribed to! Hopefully things pick up here and those communities will rebuild themselves here to some extent.
datanalysis, userexperience, uxdesign, digitalmarketing, extramile, watchitfortheplot, coffee and combatfootage
r/knots
r/FunnyAnimals. For some reason, it made me sleep better at nights. A few funny videos with pets and I could end my day with a smile.
Nosleep and other horror/terror/creepy things subs and some specific videogames subs
r/vexillologycirclejerk
I'm subscribed to a lot of band/artist subreddits, so I'm going to miss them
Probably the machine learning/AI ones like r/singularity and r/artificial.
I'm going to miss r/hockey and r/nfl. Reddit was my place to get my morning sports fix. Hoping Lemmy can grow and gain in popularity!
r/notjustbikes. The man himself no longer wants to use reddit without third-party clients or moderate the community without access to the API, so the community is basically gone forever unless reddit decides to revert the change, which won't happen. It was the best urbanist sub and nothing can quite replace it.
All of the r/ImaginaryNetwork subs. Plus r/DataHoarder, r/Selfhosted
futurology, medicalgore, medizzy, okbuddyretard, surrealmeme,bossfight,chadtopia, internetisbeautiful
sports subs probably... and r/anime... ah and r/idiotsincars
EDIT: r/manga too....
Strangely, I already miss Me_IRL and White People Twitter. Both were fun.
r/BestofRedditorUpdates I fall asleep reading posts, it's bad (edit, thankfully someone made one here /c/bestupdates)
r/PersonOfInterest because it's my favorite tv show, I'm really due for a rewatch when I think about it
I'm going to miss r/datasets, r/selfhosted and other subreddits that allowed me to tap into accessible niche knowledge. I'm sure there are subs I had not yet discovered, but a lot of the information they collected over the years may be gone. I hope those communities will find their way to Lemmy and rebuild.
FWIW, selfhosted does have a sort of "best of" list on GitHub at: https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted
/r/satisfactorygame, cause its a great game, and its subreddit was a great source for knowledge and ideas. Also, /r/hardware, for the same reasons.
Reminds me that r/changemyview also really requires a large pool of participants to have value... Damn, I really liked that subreddit. I feel like it made me a better person.
A lot of subreddits that have been said I'll also miss, but for me personally I'll miss the Math based subreddits I used to follow the most. r/badmath was a particular fav. I don't have many "math people" in my friend group so it was nice to have a place to chat about differnet math topics and learn. But hey, I'm sure with time we can expect a lot of those subreddits to find a home elsewhere. Hopefully here. I like it a lot so far!
I'm gonna miss r/SubSimGPT2 and it's meta subreddit so much
I am going to miss my programming subreddits and r/halo. A lot of good folks over there.
r/GymMemes
Easily the most goofy subreddit I had the pleasure of being in.
Maybe... r/Genshin_Impact
And lots of NSFW subreddits
Edit: and also r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks. Just waiting for the big new area and characters
Subreddit drama.
artisanvideos. I love a good japanese watch maker making a wooden cabinet in a rainforest with rocks as tools.
SummonerSchool and CompetitiveTFT, I know there are discords but I don't like its format.
r/tooktoomuch
All the Star Wars/comicbook movie leaks subs
Biggest ones will probably be r/bouldering and r/climbharder.
The tech related ones will be more likely to have big replacements, but bouldering is pretty niche, so I'm not sure about that one.
r/backcountry great resource for back country skiing and generally a good place to find awesome photos, trip reports, articles, and discussion. I created the community here but none of my skiing friends use social media.
Firefox. AndroidGaming, Android, Windows11,Microsoft, Chrome, SmartLauncher.... lots of various speific support communities. Also valuable ones like AskDocs, AskElectricians, etc. Reddit is a really good way to find advice from people that know what they're doing (of course you have to be careful).
I'm going to miss my local subreddits, like r/toronto and r/askTO. They have (had?) a very active and interesting userbase. I'm going to miss the subreddits for the games I play, like The Sims and Civ. I'm going to miss the subreddits for the TV shows I follow. I'm going to miss the lady-focused subreddits, the cute animals subreddits, the mental health subreddits (which have gotten me through so much), the science subreddits, and the news subreddits. I'm a member of so many communities there that I love. I'm going to miss them all.
/r/aoe2 was one of my favorites. I hope plenty of users decide to make the switch.
I'm going to miss all the weird niche subreddits I was a part of that will probably never show up here in force because there's just not enough people on Lemmy to begin the formation of such niche subreddits. The amount of users interested in those things on Lemmy will be proportionally smaller compared to the number on Reddit, and so it will make it just that much harder to have flourishing and active communities around those things.
Mostly joke subreddits like r/VXJunkies and r/badfoodporn, but also game dev oriented stuff like r/Godot, r/PixelArt, and r/INAT
I liked r/whatisthis and the other subs for identifying objects and places. I rarely knew what anything was and never posted, but I learned a lot about random items!
Sunrise and Sourdough
If you are actively looking for a subreddit, try use browse.feddit.de, then you can add it in the search bar
Just added, I will post some stuff the next few days. Hope to make it active (: c/fuckcars
R/popping
- r/musictheory
- r/MostBeautiful
- r/flowers
- r/TikiHut
- r/nature
r/Windows10, rWindows11, and r/techsupport – since they were often the top Google search results for computer-related QnAs
one that I don't see making much sense here for a while was /r/circlejerk. that was prime shitposting on such an ironic level. i think that's the only sub i will actually miss.
I'm gonna miss r/Art that's for sure! I loved how ppl gave different techniques a twist. It gave me hope! Most websites circlejerk around portraits and anime. Also r/depression. I use to reply post when I think I could say something helpful. Today someone committed to hospital and I'm afraid she won't be able to reach us back, ask for help, ask for someone to listen her. There's lots of niche hobbies too. I recently joined 3 and I was thrilled with these communities: r/falloutnewvegas and their witty crossovers, r/Tau40K had some cool painters and, oh boy, r/MechanicalKeyboards.
r/letsnotmeet was always a fun, morbid read. I'll miss it.
r/WatchPeopleDie
Not the gory/gruesome stuff tho. Good reminder of my mortality. And not to fuck with machinery/cars/guns.
r/oldhagfashion was a really fun one!
I don't think that I'll miss any particular one but I'll really miss the more niche shitposting subs like r/okbuddychicanery and r/snapchad
canoeing, woodworking, ask historians, and maine.
So many niche subreddits that help me explore my hobbies. Sailing, pipe tobacco. I just got into tiki style drinks and discovered a whole sub-culture I was unaware of around this.
r/KDrama, and it'll be a while until anything similar ever arrives as it relies on recurring posts and a huge community for discussions 🥲
Gonna miss HFY and Unity groups.
I thought 196 but it looks like it actually might be getting decently big here maybe so I'll go with TrueSTL those were the main 2 subs I browsed there is actually one here but it only has 2 posts both by the same person and I don't know what to post here's the link in case anyone else wants it [email protected]
I'm going to miss the different subreddits for individual games.
Also nonmurdermysteries.
I loved reading the stories on r/AmITheAsshole and r/WritingPrompts. Some others that I frequented were r/Bombing (graffiti/tags) and r/Battlestations (computer setups). Deep love for r/CurseOfStrahd and all the little Dungeons & Dragons communities back on Reddit.
