Just the really small ones i was subscribed to, Tasker will probably be my most missed one, hard to find another forum specifically for one app!
r/kamenrider, r/supersentai or any of the tokusatsu subs for that matter
r/ultralight, r/myog and r/wildernessbackpacking
You can tell what I'm into.
Hello from [email protected], I always wanted more overlap between r/ultralight and r/myog personally, they go hand in hand. Stop by and say hi :)
All of the Warhammer related subreddits!
r/mbti 16 mbtis
r/infp
agreed. r/infp especially, i always felt more at home there (even if my interests are more intp-like)
Come to discord!
I really enjoy r/archery hope they make it here

r/HobbyDrama or a more hobby oriented history community. Also r/AskHistorians or similar, although that one will take more effort and setting up than simply making the community. I personally use Reddit to see a couple memes and then read both of the subs I mentioned. I like seeing people who are passionate about a thing talk about the history of that thing.
Would love to see r/hobbydrama, r/nosleep, and r/popculturechat
A couple, I think. WoTshow is one I really liked. And exatheist is a tiny sub where a bunch of people who were once atheists of all different religions talk religious philosophy.
It'd be great to have an actual place that isn't just Christians screaming that LGTBQ+ people are of the devil and need to burn, and at the same time not have edgelord atheists decrying that they have figured out everything and are smarter than everyone else
Conlangs!
The niche anime ones. Where's my bros at r/Kaguya_sama? r/SpyxFamily? r/swordartonline? etc?
Though I'm happy that I've seen one niche anime community today and that's Bocchi the Rock's.

Not trying to start any political debates. These are just some of the subreddits that I would like to see as communities here on Lemmy. Feel free to comment if some of these exist and I'll update my comment.
Ah, just realized that almost none of these are actually niche. Whoops.
Does anyone play Slay the Spire? There's a cool community driven game going on, on the subreddit and it'd be cool to bring it over here too.
It's pretty damn new, but the only reason I keep popping back on reddit is to go to r/HyruleEngineering. The problem is that it relies on the easiness of reddit hosting the video for these short clips which lemmy currently couldn't handle. Though, people there are dedicated enough to their builds and information that they would probably be the ones who would make burner youtube accounts to upload things.
Waiting on r/linuxmasterrace tbh
If any sub can truly 100% move over it'd be one of the Linux subs, maybe then they'll stop posting memes about how they're posting memes on a closed source platform
Maybe theyβll also find a different joke than βarch btw.β
This seems way too unlikely to happen, but r/askhistorians. It's an exceptionally well moderated (if a bit overzealous) community that allows for both the average person to ask seemingly impossible, very specific questions as well as academics to express their knowledge and passion for those very same super specific topics they find fascinating; but have difficulty finding an audience to listen to them in their day to day lives.
I'm really hoping for some quality archaeology/anthropology/history content as well, I started [email protected] for a kind of catch-all community (and yes, that's the best name I could come up with)
r/oneorangebraincell, r/standardissuecat, r/GuiltyGear, r/CuratedTumblr
Hobbydrama It was kinda interesting hearing about the inner workings and happenings in hobby's you never even heard about.
I'd like to see r/adhdwomen, r/bropill, r/SantaMuerte, r/oldhagfashion, r/MensLib, r/Vaush, r/knitting, and just about all of the cat subs.
Actually a few, but to list some
~~r/PublicDomain~~
r/MirrorsEdgeAesthetics
~~r/MovieSuggestions~~
~~r/LostMedia~~
~~rMediumReadings~~
~~r/RockinTheClassics~~
~~r/REgames ~~
r/CarHacking could also be good
Maybe~~ r/iwatchedanoldmovie ~~ Some game specifics sub's like r/MetalGearSolid, r/MetalSlug and r/HalfLife, r/moddergearsolid is a particularly obscure one.
Most of the console modding subs like r/360hacks, r/WiiUHacks which is going dark, r/PS3Homebrew and so on.
From my own feed that's about it, with the exception of some piracy ones like rCemuPiracy r/LinuxCrackSupport and r/SteamDeckPirates, among others. And a couple in particular that push a bit closer to the work unsafe side, so those wouldn't be here.
r/liveaudio r/mixingandmastering r/bitwig r/ableton r/ethereum
all of the Linux subreddits I browse + r/selfhosted, r/homelab, r/datahoarder.
all of these seem like easy fits for the fediverse.
r/Aviation and r/KerbalSpaceProgram equivalents would be welcomed by me.
If anyone is looking, I made !amateur_radio (https://sh.itjust.works/c/amateur_radio).
I'm in a few different subs on Reddit, but the ones id love to see the most here would probably be:
r/stellaris r/crusaderkings r/kotor r/fireemblem and r/talesfromtechsupport
r/outside. That place is such a needed mental break.
