mainly hobby and special interest subs

• r/Falcons & r/Braves

• r/DaystromInstitute for Star Trek fans,

• r/Movies, r/MoveDetails and r/FanTheories

I’m going to miss r/guitar and r/guitar lessons. As someone who just started getting back into playing guitar, those two subreddits were ESSENTIAL treasure troves of tips, information, and guides to learning, practicing and enjoying guitar. Hoping to find / develop something similar on Lemmy…

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

illegallySmolCats, furniturerestoration, visiblemending. I love cat pictures and diy type shit.

i'm going to miss r/duggarssnark, r/askoldpeople, r/xennials, r/talktherapy, r/leopardsatemyface

Gonna miss HFY and Unity groups.

/r/whowouldwin :(

Also /r/tiktokcringe, so many of the videos there had me nearly in tears in laughter

I am going to miss many, one of which is /r/gaybros. I have created [email protected] (/c/[email protected]).

r/internet_funeral They have surreal textual art which was pretty cool

Not willing to go to reddit to confirm the name, but it was something to the affect of "Animals I didn't know existed" didn't check it much but I did enjoy when something new showed up.

r/WatchPeopleDie

Not the gory/gruesome stuff tho. Good reminder of my mortality. And not to fuck with machinery/cars/guns.

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.

noncredibledefense I didn't understand all of the memes, but I loved the energy.

• r/musictheory
• r/MostBeautiful
• r/flowers
• r/TikiHut
• r/nature

r/GymMemes

Easily the most goofy subreddit I had the pleasure of being in.

r/sbcgaming and r/steamdeck are my two favorites

Nada. Nothing. I was there for the people, and the people that don't seem like they are just cavemen who figured out how to browse a website left Reddit and reformed every sub I was subscribed to over here already. I don't even have any specific novelty accounts to miss since every single one I knew of hasn't been around for a while as it was already, such as /u/shitty_water_colours.

Boru-best of redditor updates

Username certainly checks out

r/Ilguns I need that to keep up with the gun law changes in illinois and the myriad of court cases going on.

And the r/ukraine and r/ukraine conflict was where i was getting news of the war.

I found a few ukraine news here, but it will take time to get it really going.

I miss r/neography. It was full of interesting conscripts by so many talented people. The hardest part about leaving Reddit was the loss of these niche communities that can’t be easily replaced over here. I also miss my country’s subreddit, it was nice place with interesting people and entertaining posts. I tried to make a replacement on Kbin but it’s just 8 people and I’m the only one posting. But this is only the beginning, the fediverse will only grow from here and we’ll start seeing these smaller communities appear.
