Id love a community for motorcycles, haven't seen much in the way of automotive on Lemmy yet.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

r/woodworking would be nice.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

r/buttcoin, every time I feel bad about myself I like reading about crypto fails to remind myself that I could have made even worse decisions.
r/noncredibledefense, makes the horror of the war not far from me a bit more bearable

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

r/grandorder Probably my most used subreddit. Also r/hololive and r/nijisanji

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

/r/talesfromtechsupport /r/maliciouscompliance and /r/prorevenge always give me a chuckle.

I'm new to the whole fediverse thing, but - if you've got an interest in a specific, uh... Sub? Fed? Community? Why not create one yourself?

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Because then I have to moderate it :/

Quite niche, but communities for specific games (Path of Exile, Last Epoch, Grim Dawn) as well as audiophile subs (audiophile, budget audiophile).

r/hotpeppers

I grow super hots and love looking at people's gardens.

/r/swift.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Tada! https://lemmy.ml/c/futurama

I've never modded a sub/community before, much less something with a fanbase the size of Futurama's. But, I'm willing to get it started.

Most of these are on Reddit, but there may be a few that I thought could be specific, but not as niche as some of the ones on reddit. (like no community just for one game)

Van conversion/van life

Birding

Camping and hiking

AmITheAsshole

Each state in the US

Longevity

Kindlescribe/e-ink

RestlessLeg (or a chronic condition community)

Woodworking (bigger builds)

Carving (smaller builds, not furniture or big stuff)

Nutrition

NextFuckingLevel

JRPG

Turn-Based RPGs

Action/Adventure Games

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm a full time RVer, I'm also interested in a vanlife/rvlife community.

SquaredCircle, gotta talk my wrestling

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

word. I recall their being an inactive lemmy community, but I can't even find that now.

/r/eurovision, although the season just ended so it would be a bit quiet right now anyway.

/r/fantasyfootball, that season is just about to kick off so would be good timing

If you'd asked this a day earlier I'd have said /r/casualUK but we now have [email protected]

And the various specific craft subs. Currently we're posting all craft projects to [email protected] but sooner rather than later I think it'll have to be split up into individual crafts because if there's one thing crafters love even more than the actual making stuff, it's showing off the stuff we made.

Please can we have a "BuyNothing" or "Freecycle" Comunity? One for each city/region/area would be better but If needed we could have just one where post titles contain the location (SacramentoCA) before anything else. Then sorting / Searching would weed out the unwanted due to distance items.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I feel it probably makes more sense for location-specific instances to have their own communities for these things. So for example, have a Lemmy instance for London, e.g. london.lemmy.uk. Then have ~[email protected] community, which is for Freecycle posts in London.

Of course anyone from other instances can join, it just seems to make sense that something so location specific should be in a location specific Lemmy instance (of which there are a growing number).

Not really niche, but CFB has the best community.

I also love OSRS and wouldnโ€™t mind seeing a Drum Corps community as well.

Iโ€™d love to see stuff related to linux tech I use and obscure video game discussions. Some of my favs were:

bspwm oxenfree edgerunners

And quite a few others, but those are off the top of my head atm.
