This goes out to all the homies that don’t have the time/energy to moderate, and to the ones that do that would like ideas (If there’s been posts about this already then I’m srry)
Personally I don’t care at all, but I’ve got a few friends hoping for a good gun group similar to liberalgunowners.
I would like a video group like r/unexpected and r/kidsarefuckingstupid for funny vids to share with my wife at bedtime.
Right now I feel like a new interesting and active community is appearing every hour or two so I’m not in a rush, I’m enjoying watching the whole lemmiverse taking its first big steps
https://lemmy.world/c/kidsbeingderps has a similar idea as r/kidsarefuckingstupid as per the sidebar.
There’s also an unexpected on lemmy.ml but it’s dead so maybe someone with a bunch of good videos/gifs can start to populate it or make a new one here.
My list
Funsies & Weird brainstorming
- /r/competitiveoverwatch aka /r/cow (I don’t play the game but I sure enjoy the juice)
- /r/hobbydrama (very diverse type of juicy dramas, miam!)
- /r/overwatchTMZ (/r/cow but extended)
- /r/valorantcompetitive (same reasoning for the OW one)
- /r/livestreamfail (don’t post there; but is fun to occasionally lurk and see funny stuffs and be up to date with the latest online juicers)
- /r/anarchychess
- /r/singularity
- /r/BestofRedditorUpdates
- and 20 more cute animal pictures/videos subreddits like /r/partyparrots, /r/happycowgifs, etc.
Stuffs I use for er… productivity! yeah yeah productivity, that’s right!
- /r/obsidianmd I enjoy seeing other people’s workflow and new tools being developed
- /r/chatgpt (Recently the main sub went to shit with the influx of new users so /r/chatgptcoding or /r/chatgptpro might be better lol)
Subreddits that I often get led by Google search engine and it would be sad if they were to go down perpetually since I would have a very hard time without them…
- /r/homelab
- /r/automation
- /r/selfhosted
- /r/datahoarder
- /r/android
- /r/sysadmin
- /r/kitchenconfidential
- /r/appliancerepair/
I’m also very interested in how some different jobs work so I subbed out to these to check on them occasionally… and they sometimes would provide interesting workflows/insights that I can a-hem, take inspiration from…
- /r/ExperiencedDevs/
- /r/accounting
- /r/uxdesign
There’s way more but I visit those a bit less, the problem is, I’m not sure if Lemmy can fill the void in my heart but if it does for those main ones (all above) then I think that I can permanently migrate from Reddit.
As others have said, anarchy chess is here already as is chatgpt
Very niche, but I would love to see a (bullet) journaling community on here. it was one of my favourite places to go on reddit. Also miss the fantasy community, but as I understand it, there are a lot of new communities in beta related to favourite authors and such.
I’d love to see one for my state and one for my city, I was surprised they didn’t exist
Definitely all the question-answer subreddits, like AskScience, AskScienceFiction (though for the love of god please call it AskFiction this time), NoStupidQuestions, TooAfraidToAsk, ChangeMyView (with the Delta bot), AskMeAnything.
AskReddit equivalent already exists: AskKbin@kbin.social.
AskScience
Miss that :(
I could just go there, see a seemingly stupid question and be amazed by the professionality and detail of the comment section. A bit like XKCD - what if? on endless mode.
/c/raidshadowlegends is the only interest i have that has not shown ip here yet
I’d love these:
- /c/WoTshow
- /c/nanocurrency
- /c/cryptocurrency
- /c/banano
- /c/cryptomonkeys
Personally, not a fan of the crypto stuff, but if you’re into it, have you looked at monero.house?
-prisonhooch - fermenting things that really shouldnt have been fermented into alcohol. always a good laugh to see some ridiculous ideas.
-canned fish/seafood enthusiasts
-hot sauce and/or spicy condiments
Honestly I miss tech support subreddits the most. I really enjoyed killing some time scrolling through and seeing who I can help.
The thing is I don’t know if that would be as useful here as on somewhere like Reddit because the bar to enter Lemmy and find a tech support page is a little higher.
Still could be useful and I imagine a few ones exist but I’ve only seen them for specific things like Lemmy so far
I’m going to miss the subreddits for skilled trade professionals (plumbing, electrical, etc), especially the ones set up to give folks advice, like r/askaplumber r/mechanicadvice r/askalocksmith and such.
I would love to see some communities like that pop up here.
I’d like to see something similar to r/bigbangedmemes or r/blackholedmemes, these subs are about editing heavily a meme screenshot/image at the point to turn it into an un-understandable trippy image, at a point where it’s almost a form of art. They are still public on reddit right now so I don’t know if it’s a good idea to create an alternative here already.

Reddit’s Reddit. There’s no reason to worry about what they do or don’t have. If you want to make one, go for it!
Personally I’m just going to miss the oddly specific meme subreddits like r/breadstapledtotrees and r/suspiciousquotes
a populated c/drugs
A populated aquarium/fishkeeping community
I miss fantasy writers and magic building. I would even be willing to moderate them. But I lack any skills to contribute to them. Not to mention I’m worried that most people are not interested in move as writing subreddits struggle to get off ground.
I would so be game for that, am leaving for a trip, will be back at the end of the month, but after that, I’d love to help set it up.
