Captain_PiecesWhat niche reddit community do you want to see find a place on the fediverse?
Forgot about Hydrohomies too
A couple, I think. WoTshow is one I really liked. And exatheist is a tiny sub where a bunch of people who were once atheists of all different religions talk religious philosophy.
ScrubblesIt'd be great to have an actual place that isn't just Christians screaming that LGTBQ+ people are of the devil and need to burn, and at the same time not have edgelord atheists decrying that they have figured out everything and are smarter than everyone else
Bingo. That's what r/exatheist is for me. Both extremes usually get talked down by the mods who tend to be fairly even-keel.
The other sub I like (but only lurk) is radicalchristian. I'm not Christian, but I love the way they look at the world and their religion.
In that regard, /r/radicalchristianity would be a good one, as they’re lefty Christians (you know, like Jesus himself!)
Yes! WotShow and LOTR_on_Prime
I tried so hard with LOTR. Especially because I saw how much hate WoT got (despite WoT now being my favorite show, and 6 or 7 rewatches in) and I wanted to give it its fair shake. It didn't work for me, and I'll probably be late to the game for S2, but I don't think all the hate for either was justified.
Since nobody else had (in my network) I added [email protected] and [email protected]. If I don't see a community I want, I plan to try to add one. I'd like to drive enough activity in lemmy that I don't mind losing reddit.
Just joined :)

EponymousBoshConlangs!
CheshireSnakeQuite niche, but communities for specific games (Path of Exile, Last Epoch, Grim Dawn) as well as audiophile subs (audiophile, budget audiophile).
Not much of an audiophile myself, but communities based around specific hardware are great when looking to make a purchase
I need my guitar pedal homies
Me too! :(
Is two of us enough to create it?
If you make one, I'll subscribe!
I found a Path of Exile one: https://kbin.social/m/PoE
it's empty at the moment, and the microblog's collecting #poe hashtags as in Edgar Allen... but at least it's there:)
Weird ones like the ones about the letter wars, eg r/theLetterH
And generally communities about movies and tv shows, eg dedicated series subreddits
r/shortcuts is a favorite of mine
Chairsunderwater
Waiting on r/linuxmasterrace tbh
If any sub can truly 100% move over it'd be one of the Linux subs, maybe then they'll stop posting memes about how they're posting memes on a closed source platform
Agreed. The irony is strong there lol
Linux gaming already has 3k subs
Fair point, that's probably most of the subreddit already cries in low market share
Maybe they’ll also find a different joke than “arch btw.”
I'm hoping that some of the writing and image sharing subreddits make their way on here. Specifically: r/AbandonedPorn/, r/AccidentalRenaissance/, r/ImaginarySliceOfLife/, and r/LetsNotMeet/
morrowindThe whole imaginary network is gorgeous. I wonder if we could convince them to work here as well.
I will really miss the imaginary network (slice of life, garden, interiors, etc).
Also hoping for r/tbfp. Easily my favorite sub
What's that? I can't see it on RIF.
He means r/twobestfriendsplay it's a sub for a YouTube channel that doesn't make videos anymore but keeps going as a chill anime/gaming culture sub.
Ahh found it. Thanks!

Tuvan41Well good news for you. tuckedinkitties
A couple of my hobbies that I've seen barely getting started here... photography and mycology. There's a lot to explore in both without getting wrapped up in religion or politics.
JetpackJacksonr/oneorangebraincell, r/standardissuecat, r/GuiltyGear, r/CuratedTumblr
Hrimfaxir/zillowgonewild, r/mcmansionhell, r/lastfm, and r/humansarespaceorcs have always been fun places for me. History-centric and hyperlocal neighborhood-level subs, too.
I also like most of the circlejerk subs. Maybe straightforward communities here will be less self-serious, thus making [blank]jerk counterparts unnecessary.
I've seen a few people mention fighting games on here (e.g. Street Fighter). I'd be interested in that. The number of gameplay clips people would be sharing make me think it ought to be its own instance, though.
Also:
- pens, fountain pens
- mechanical keyboards
- watches
Some communities have been created for those, but don't seem to have gained much popularity.
artillectI've created https://kbin.social/m/mechanicalkeyboards, but there's nothing there yet
How would you access this from Lemmy? Does there need to be explicit federation?
I'm on lemmy.one, and I've tried https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected], but it doesn't seem to do anything but give me a 404
NinaI'm trying to get it on lemmy.ml and doing the same kind of link as you and I'm also getting a 404. It doesn't seem to be updating like yours is, but I will check back I guess. Did you do anything different while waiting for it to work?
I think I went to the search function and searched for [email protected]
Some time after that, the link started to work.
That's worked for me before on something else on a different lemmy instance, but it doesn't seem to be working for me this time. I wonder if it's because it's kbin? Not sure.
Hmm, I tried from lemmy.ml as well, as you're on that instance, and it doesn't seem to work from there. Some federation issue due to load maybe?
Possibly. I won't bug them too much right now, I'm sure there's a lot to handle.
missingnoI've set up [email protected]
It's probably not practical to have subs for individual games just yet though.
r/noncredibledefense. We need some excellent spaces to shitpost about the MIC, and a space where we can collectively laugh at the 2nd army of the world getting it's ass kicked by the poorest nation in Europe
admin/r/internet_funeral. Probably my favorite sub on reddit.
I spend way too much time on r/coffee. A lot of people think we are pretentious snobs (which can be true sometimes) but we're just stuck in the neverending pursuit of the "perfect cup."
Also r/linguistics and r/mathematics are fun to read, especially when new papers are published and there's a discussion going on
jeenaThose country ones, I'm in r/sweden and r/korea
ShrekHonestly its just my local city subreddit, and the community for my favorite 2nd tier sports team. It has barely enough users even on reddit though, so it probably won't survive with a smaller overall user base.
i_love_FFTr/powerwashingporn, it was my first Reddit experience, which really showed me that this website had a specialized community for everything. That fact is what got me hooked...
waspentalivePlease 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.
Bleu [they/them]r/simpsonsshitposting
Same! I wonder if it'd make sense to just share shitposts from the sub and bortposting here (with proper credit)
PurahI would love to see one for working out or gym memes
yeah i haven't seen much fitness stuff on here. i'd miss r/gainit
Star trek and startrekmemes
