Just a working list - feel free to add to it. I realize that some of these might already exist, and I just missed them. Here’s what I’ve got so far:
- Book suggestions
- Obscure Media
- New England
- Massachusetts
- separate communities for every other state too
- Mildly interesting
- Antiwork
- Anti-Amazon
- buy it for life
Some of the ones I’ll be looking for replacements for:
3d6, or equivalent discussion of DND/RPG builds and mechanics.
something like AskHistorians, which I know will be hard to replace considering the verification and moderation around it.
local city subreddits, I really liked having one for my home town or places I might visit.
honestly, I could see Chat taking the place of something like AskReddit.
Lemmy.ml has both AskLemmy and ShittyAskLemmy.
