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?

Well I've found a Soccer sub, but that's about it

Ffs just realised just how many subs I've been participating in over there, would be a big loss

I'm waiting for someone to re-create r/france here, as it seems you need an engineer degree to understand how to setup your instance :(

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

In general you don't need to set up your own instance to create a Community /c/France, you can just create it on any existing instance that allows Community creation by users. I notice you're on beehaw who have decided to limit Community creation to Admins for now.

That said, many regional non-english speaking communities have made their own instances (feddit.de, feddit.dk, feddit.ir), maybe it has something to do with limiting language used?

I mean I mainly spent my time on the UK based subs and we've got United Kingdom and casualuk equivalents here already which is good. They both need a lot more users though.

Mainly what I'm missing are skateboarding, more specific music subs like metal, punk etc., but those will come in time I'm sure.

Nice to be here by the way, still getting used to how the whole fediverse thing works but it seems pretty cool so far!

desperately need r/196 over here plspls

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

One of my main subs was /r/cfb, I don't think it has transitioned yet... Hopefully it'll get up and running before football season starts.

Waiting for the Farming and Gardening subs to move over along with prepping.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I follow a lot of niche hobby and some other communities that haven't come over yet.

A couple have started to shuffle on over but not a lot yet.

I also followed a lot (like a serious amount) of art subs that haven't seemed to come over yet. I basically followed most of the "imaginary[insert niche here]" subs.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

FFXIV, most of the writing subs, Another Eden, I don't think FoundryVTT has moved yet, PF2E, there aren't nearly as many cute-animal communities yet, etc.

A user migrated one, I migrated another. Neither have had activity worth mentioning.

There's a handful of others I used heavily that haven't though. I'm missing r/metalmemes in a bad way lol.

Hello fellow rice lover.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

So far almost none of mine are on here. May have to change that.

I’m only missing ProgrammerHumor tbh.

I mostly used /r/Denmark. Now I use the feddit.dk instance, but it isn't officially supported by the /r/Denmark mods.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I've had to change my mindset; if I care about it existing, then I have to be the one who makes it. I've already created [email protected] and I've become a mod for [email protected].

No but not a lot of people have multiple sclerosis so I undersand.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

/r/welding /r/machinists /r/cherokeexj /r/jeep made it though (and some wrangler community... so, yay?)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Gonna be a long wait until niche communities can even start rebuilding. Probably the worst part about this whole thing.

I think so. Not sure if it's official - as in, done by the mods - but there seems to be a few people over there already! CasualUK over on reddit was my favourite sub, and https://lemmy.world/c/ukcasual seems to be the place to be now on Lemmy.

Hey fam ,

I created https://lemmydeals.com because most of the reason why I went to reddit was to find deals anyway. Hope you can go take a look!

I scanned quickly through the comments here so I may have missed any mentions, if there were any... But my suggestion is: there should be a master/stickied list of equivalent subreddits. So in the future, people can just google [subreddit name] + lemmy (or kbin or beehaw etc etc).

Preferably the same exact subreddit name. Or are those subreddit names owned by Reddit? Can they come after us?

It has, but it's quite empty yet. There are some posts, but I can seem to be able to reply sometimes. I see "Jerboa" and I get a "language not allowed" error. Anyone knows how to fix this?

There's a bunch of creative writing type subreddits that I lurked on; hfy, writingprompts, fanfiction, that sort of thing.

It's not much but it's honest work... I remember finding this sub the first time and was blown away that I wasn't alone! So I started it. [email protected]
