Welp it's July 1st, and I actually had to move from lemmy.world over to lem.ee because that instance is being verryyy overloaded right now, lol.

I'm very new to Lemmy too and I already adore it. I'm really hoping to see lots of the Linux related subs become more prominent over here.

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.

r/Writingprompts, I loved many of the short stories people posted there.

[-] anonymoose@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

https://sub.rehab/ has a list of a lot of popular subs that have moved to the Fediverse!

[-] Weirdbeardgame@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

IdiotsInCars was always an interesting time

[-] bosshoggwadeboggs@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

That was my favorite sub. Probably the only one I'll actually miss

[-] jetsetdorito@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

BestofLegalAdvice always had funny commentary on LegalAdvice

[-] Lotsen@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

Redneckengineering, unket, middlyinteresring, odly satisfying, swedish problems,

[-] TheSacredOne@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I'd love to see r/techsupportgore, r/spicypillows, and r/redneckengineering

[-] Azzu@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Would love to see /r/dota2 move, but the mods there are overwhelmingly against it, and the people are split 50/50. !dota2@lemm.ee is almost exclusively populated by me

[-] Crankpork@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

ShittyFoodPorn, AbandonedPorn, DIWhy, PallasCats, CurlyHair…

[-] Fractalfarmer@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

I'll miss the breaking mom / broken mom communities

[-] araquen@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I miss:

r/abrathatfits - those folks took it to 11 for helping people find the best fitting bras - no matter your shape, size or orientation.

r/makeupaddiction - as someone who constantly feels like they’re putting on greasepaint and not makeup, the sub was great for helping people get their cosmetics game on

r/skincareaddiction. - a great sub for anyone struggling with skin issues

r/haircarescience - another great sub to help people with all their hair struggles

r/loseit, r/cico, r/1200isplenty, and the more discrete offshoots - great for helping me structure dietary goals.

r/hysterectomy, r/diabetes - because support groups matter (and I didn’t find the Hystersisters very supportive when I first went there, years ago).

r/volumeeating, r/eatcheaply and healthfully - lovely food “hacks”

r/criticalrole (I do hope that we regenerate with Lemmy.world as I believe there is a community of Critters there).

r/aquariums - I used to have an aquarium when I was younger. I always wanted one as an adult, but I have to suffice by living vicariously through other enthusiasts.

r/superbowls - because: owls and because it’s fun to watch the American football enthusiasts get “lost" in January.

There are others (I subscribed to almost 250 subreddits), but I can’t remember them off-hand.

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.

[-] raresbears@iusearchlinux.fyi 1 points 1 year ago

Loved all the circlejerk subs that existed for the communities I liked on reddit, often even moreso than the main sub lol

[-] dandroid@dandroid.app 1 points 1 year ago

The community I use most and the only one I still visit reddit for is r/hockey. There are a couple of hockey communities here, but they aren't active enough for them to even show up in my home page.

Unfortunately they were very vocally against a blackout, and they seemed to think all the complaints against reddit were stupid/overblown. So I doubt the users will move here.

[-] rwhitisissle@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] lauha@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

r/trees <- weed lol

Also definitely

r/weed <- trees lol

[-] VirginChad@reddthat.com 0 points 1 year ago

Redneck engineering

Boring dystopia, lost generation, anti-money memes, class consciousness memes itp.

Surreal memes, void memes, deepfried surreal memes, 5'th world pics itp.

Furry_irl, yiff

[-] actsukrit@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

AmitheAsshole. That place provided so much idle entertainment

[-] SilentStorms@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Disagree, I hope all those creative writing and "I did the sex" subs stay over there.

[-] StankFlipper@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

Old recipes, colorized history, high strange, gonewild (they need a home too), and white people gifs. Those are the ones I have off the top of my head

[-] unknown_artist@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] uhauljoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

yessssss

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.

[-] const_void@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

There's already some pretty established and active communities over here:

/c/Linux /c/archlinux /c/kde

[-] lauha@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Nice, I also use archlinux

[-] Triforze@reddthat.com 0 points 1 year ago

I know it's unlikely but ask historians, the moderation required is unreal. More realistic would be bestofredditorupdates for all the mindless drama reading.

[-] lexhph@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Would be nice to have historyporn migrate as well

[-] Hexadecimalkink@lemmy.ml -3 points 1 year ago

Wallstreetbets

[-] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml -5 points 1 year ago

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.
