What are some kbin or Lemmy alternatives to common Reddit subs?

I’ll certainly miss r/unexpected, r/guitarlearning, r/damnthatsinteresting, r/historymemes and many more

Hopefully this can turn into a useful thread for everyone looking to replace Reddit with a close enough experience, and maybe even a better one once it gains traction

Here are some I have found:

    It only shows the subscribers that belong to this instance. But yes, every federated magazine will be shown.

      Maybe this doesn’t matter, but if magazines are unique between instances, how will we know if we are patronizing the most active magazine? E.g., Lemmy has, I dunno, @factorio, and Kbin has @factorio, is there an easy way to tell which one is more active?

      Further, I saw a diagram floating around that suggested that magazines between different instances of Kbin are also unique. E.g., @factorio @kbin.social is unique from @factorio @fedia.io? Isn’t that the same fragmentation as accessing different forums?

      Wouldn’t mind an ELI5.
