I know it's unlikely but ask historians, the moderation required is unreal. More realistic would be bestofredditorupdates for all the mindless drama reading.
Lemmit.online is a bot instance that copies over communities from reddit, all of the posts there are just clones from reddit posts on the corresponding subreddit (without the comments)
That's a great website. I wonder what the deal is with all the Discord communities. Not only is Discord horrible for forum based discussion, it's probably next on this list to do a rug pull on its users.
i'd love more surreal memes too. there's a whole furry lemmy instance over at yiffit.net or pawb.social. a boring dystopia is also on lemmy.world, lemmit.online and mander.xyz
Would love to see /r/dota2 move, but the mods there are overwhelmingly against it, and the people are split 50/50. [email protected] is almost exclusively populated by me
Right now I wish all my game subs would recreate on Lemmy. I used Reddit mostly for entertainment, and getting info on games that I'm currently playing is actually what got me into Reddit for the first time.
HFY. I just love the idea. The genre I guess? I also would love to see the old content archived. There are some treasures in there, I would hate to get lost.
Would love if the geopolitics people of anime_titties could move over, a lot of them were supporting the protests and may have considered making the jump. Right now, the only geopolitics community that I have found has 3 subscribers...
Also wouldn't mind at some point to have a meta community aggregator like SubredditDrama, HobbyDrama or BestOfRedditorUpdates. It makes for excellent reading material while on the toilet.
I need specialized communities for specific types of cat pictures. The Internet is a series of tubes and they should be filled with cats like they've always been.
Also game-specific subs. Those two categories were the majority of my Reddit usage.
r/badmovies <- home of truly bad cult films (think movies like The Dirtbike Kid, and not just "I just turned 14 and watched Starship Troopers for the first time and don't understand satire or who Paul Verhoeven is," which is what the sub has basically become on reddit over the past 2 years)
r/r9k <- random gay leftist memes
r/animecirclejerk <- Anime is great, but what's even better than anime is hating anime and the people who watch it for being degenerate pedophiles with poor media literacy (which is what most of them are).
r/trees <- weed lol
r/politics <- so that people who are too young to vote can share their political opinions while skimming the headlines and not reading the articles posted.
r/manga <- specifically links to new one shots and updates on when new chapters have posted, with discussions
r/selfhosted <- this one probably already exists in a few different places, I just need to find it.
r/comicbooks <- so people can complain about comic books while never actually reading any of them
r/todayilearned <- so people can spam mundane trivia from wikipedia you already know
r/amitheasshole <- so people who are assholes can try and convince other assholes online that they're not the asshole in their relationship.
r/leopardsatemyface <- for schadenfreude
r/EnoughMuskSpam <- a place for people who hate Elon Musk and other annoying billionaires to gather.
A lot of fandom-specific subs! With the typical main sub/meme sub/nsfw sub trinity, I’ve seen the main subs show up here with minimal activity while the meme and nsfw subs are nowhere to be seen. A lot of the big default subs have come here, but the fandom-based subs just exist as tiny communities with several thousand times less subscribers and nowhere near enough content to regularly show up on my subscribed feed.
More than migrate, I want to see the content build. Much of my browsing was looking through obscure threads (in askreddit for example creepiest things online, scariest this, etc. ) and reading comments.
i was always on r/hubposts, which was a sub where every post would be like "Spooky and Paranormal Threads" and then it would have like 50 links categorized into stories from truck drivers, or maybe hospital staff, or just camping stories, home alone stories, and each of those links was an AskReddit thread with TONS of comments.
I could get lost in hubposts truly for hours. I really do miss that sort of back log of content.
As a cross-stitcher - /r/CrossStitch. The only thing I miss from Reddit. I joined a related discord which fills the void but I love seeing people's pieces in my feed, discussing techniques, patterns, etc. I'm new here and I haven't really found a cross stitching community yet.
The main subs I spent most of my time on: meme subs and the D&D and Magic the Gathering subs, do have equivalents on here, which is nice. But I'm hoping they get more content.
What I'm really missing is how every little thing and fandom had a sub. I recently finished watching the first season of Extraordinary, for example; I wanted to see what theories and impressions other people had, and of course there was a subreddit for it. Not incredibly active, but it existed. I'm hoping Lemmy will get to that point eventually.
Cfb is here but barely. I think since it never locked down on Reddit, there was very little movement to find the community elsewhere. Not to mention there are multiple cfb message boards elsewhere.
Still I'd like r/cfb and Sync recreated for Lemmy by memorial day.
I need some more mountain biking based content, it’s my healthiest addiction and I want to keep it fed! There are a few instances but content is lacking at the moment, really no place to post questions either.
I have a server rack running unraid that I may look into spinning up a docker instance if possible so can maybe share in the Lemmy load.
I'd like to see the smaller fan communities for podcasts populate over here. r/blankies is the one I miss most, but we also need a Futurelings community for Omnibus podcast listeners.
The sub mod got it published and everything. The idea was to write a series of short stories involving the same character. This could easily be done here as well.
It's one of the only OC subs that I ever saw. Like the Reddit community managed (without any help from Reddit) to put a book together. I still couldn't find a hardcopy to be delivered, but at least it made me a published author theoretically.
I also miss the makemeavideogame sub, which was only active for a a few months. The idea is great, but extremely difficult to do. It was fun though.
If it does, I hope it comes over as the original version of the sub when there was a good balance of people from all over the political spectrum and everyone made fun of themselves. These days it feels like a right wing meme sub for the most part where they just make fun of the left, so it kind of lost what made it unique and fun to engage with.
I have already found a lot of the same communities here on Lemmy. I am hoping to find new things that I didn't even know was out there. I would suggest scrolling All and subscribing to things that interest you.
Eurovision, having a community for people who enjoy the contest as much as I do helps a lot. The Eurovision Discord has listed some Lemmy/Kbin communities so that's good.
Some label- and artist-centric music communities, specifically deadmau5/mau5trap and Above & Beyond/Anjunabeats. Gonna find me a pop community like Popheads as well I think.
Polandball, gonna miss those the most leaving Reddit. The comics were fun and the balls are cute.
I was missing /r/BoltEV (about the car) and /r/TheCritic (about the 90’s animated sitcom), so I wound up creating them on Lemmy to see who trickles in.
TBH, none of them. Reddit has has a lot of time to make sure the communities have been culled to the most acceptable to reddit's advertisers. I don't want any of that.
