I'm going to miss AITA. Even if someone makes it a community, it will take a long time to populate.

Subs that deal with medical issues. It was nice being able to go to them for advice or to help others.

Such subs were already niche on Reddit, and given their often embarrassing nature, I don't think we'll see them on lemmy in any comparable form for a while.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Nada. Nothing. I was there for the people, and the people that don't seem like they are just cavemen who figured out how to browse a website left Reddit and reformed every sub I was subscribed to over here already. I don't even have any specific novelty accounts to miss since every single one I knew of hasn't been around for a while as it was already, such as /u/shitty_water_colours.

Boru-best of redditor updates

r/PolandBall. I love the history jokes

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I will miss AITA too but also not really.

I miss how it was before it became popular. I liked using it to gain a different perspective on things and to see what my own personal bias lies.

Now it’s just full of ragebait and trolls. Seems like a lot of the posts are just people trying to gain popularity through tiktok or YouTube.

Another Plebbit refugee here. I liked r/RoleReversal and r/neverchangejapan. Honourable mention: r/piracy =)

To be honest, so many posts from r/AITA came off as fake after a while, I was already beginning to lose interest. People would do anything for upvotes. Maybe this time we can have less liars, but I'm not so naive as to actually hope for that.

I will miss r/baking, r/breadit, r/rabbits, r/old_recipes, r/askhistorians, r/archivists, r/truefilm

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I definitely miss knowledge stuff like r/eli5 r/nostupidquestion r/space r/science r/todayilearned

I browsed reddit a lot learning new stuff everyday while drinking my morning tea. But the thing I miss the most are the comments. So many posts got debunked or verified or explained even more with sources in the comments. Because of course there is a guy or a girl somewhere learning all about one type of drywall installation for 30+ years telling everyone why this wall installation in the gif can only be in 5 mile radius in Norway.

R/earthporn, r/lab rats, r/Superbowl, r/pitbulls

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

[email protected] exist, although it's really new

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

A huge chunk of anime subreddits, some nsfw subs, mealprepsunday and 1500isplenty, suggestmeabook, antimeme, copypasta, coolguides, collapse support, and my city's subreddit (I get to know more about my city, since my residence is far away from the main center of activity). And those small communities for singleplayer rpg mobile games I found interesting. I know they're never going back, most people won't even bother with mobile as a platform for games anyway...

r/sp404. I miss it so much I might just make my own community here. Although, I’m not interested in moderating it cuz I don’t have the time.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Although, I’m not interested in moderating it cuz I don’t have the time.

I hope there is serious organic outreach to disillusioned reddit mods, because they are a/the crucial key to success.

I'm going to miss all the weird niche subreddits I was a part of that will probably never show up here in force because there's just not enough people on Lemmy to begin the formation of such niche subreddits. The amount of users interested in those things on Lemmy will be proportionally smaller compared to the number on Reddit, and so it will make it just that much harder to have flourishing and active communities around those things.

I'm gonna miss /r/stupidpol, mainly because I could never find people I agreed with politically until I found them. I really started to dislike how set in stone the reddit ideology had become. If you differed from the hivemind even a bit you were labelled as "one of them". Like doesn't anyone appreciate the ability to not be told how to feel all the time?

Specific game subs, especially smaller indie games

Local communities. I do not know why, but having people share the same social conditions makes them a warm place, even for gaming communities

COLLAPSE

Call me a doomer if you want, but i think we're gonna be way fucked a lot sooner than expected climate-wise

To be honest a lot of nsfw ones :/

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

A whole bunch of the ones around tabletop games. Mini painting, terrainbuilding, some of the game-specific subreddits that always have loads of userafe content.

If anyone has spotted these communities here in federation space please let me know; I didn't find any so far.

Cyberdeck & cassettefuturism

Jeopardy for daily show breakdowns

Local sports teams

A few gaming ones, but I suspect they're here somewhere too

Most of my favorites have a discord, but that just doesn't feel the same. Very hard to wade through all that chatter

r/KDrama, and it'll be a while until anything similar ever arrives as it relies on recurring posts and a huge community for discussions πŸ₯²

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (4 children)

I'll miss all my niche gaming subreddits. Path of exile, incremental games, and I even liked keeping an eye on the gacha gaming subreddit. So many more to mention like r/gamedeals, patientgamers, many more individual game subreddits.

I might be older than a fair amount of you on the fediverse, but I'm going to miss Daddit. It was a super supportive community. I'm also going to miss nosleep, I really enjoyed a lot of those multi part stories! Other than that, I think I'm just going to miss all the random stupid posts I saved over the years and went back to here and there for a good laugh.

R/fountainpens. Other forums exist, but they aren't (a) as easy to use (b) as welcoming to newbies, yet (c) still full of experts.

I'm guessing lots of hobby subs are like that.

I miss the Apple related subreddits, that community hasn’t really seemed to move over yet.
