I was searching for a sub about Japanese Metal, couldn't find one and made it myself. Maybe, some day, the community will grow enough to hand it over to someone with mod experience, but right now, I don't have anything to moderate anyway, which is cool. Metalheads are civilized anyway ;)

I've made [email protected] for those who want it. We just need more posts!

Forza Horizon video game had a nice community on Reddit, I'd love to have it here

I guess we gotta be the change we want to see. . .

Hope someone can mod a bodyweightfitness community here

I want a sub thats never really existed in any substantial form. There really dont seem to be any solid communities for cartoons that has any decent foot traffic. I still have /co/ bookmarked cuz its the only place on the internet i've seen that will discuss just about any kinda cartoons that are not anime.. Granted that site is full of a bunch of awful people so I dont really engage, but its nice to see an active place where people care about non-anime animated content and I always wanted a sub for it. I actually tried to make one my self but there obviously wasnt enough intrest in it, not really sure how one would grow a sub and didnt really want to put in the work in my self anyway

All the niche home media film label communities like r/Criterion, r/BoutiqueBluRay, r/ArrowVideo, etc.!

Also r/SupermanAndLois

yeah 😭

I want to make a support group for a health condition I have, but idek how moderation works here...

The subs that I mostly miss are OSCP, navyblazer, and the_pack. I recall seeing that all of these were archived on some site that I don't recall at the moment. I'm sure someone will find a way to import all of that data here sooner or later.

I miss r/singing.

I've only made one community on my instance !hhkb which is a super niche group that I was a part of on reddit.

For now, I decided to make it myself. If anything to start gathering the useful resources I learned back on reddit. If anyone later on wants to take over ill happily give them the entire thing cause I dont wanna mod.

yeah absolutely

I wanted one for Art but didn't want to be in charge so my husband started it.

I also want to start one for the disease I have but again - don't really want to be in charge of it.

Maybe I think it's going to be more work than it will be?

I made one, https://lemmy.world/c/crtgaming, because I missed it on reddit and was worried that enough people had the same reservation. I’m hoping that by making it, other people will post there if they hadn’t otherwise been willing to start their own sub.

I’m not interested in moderating, but I’m also hoping that smaller communities like this are simple to mod.

I wouldn't mind starting up something like dankchristianmemes bur don't want to keep the hateful types from trying to colonize it

Sorta, Got a bunch of the more niche communities I was in made, with only two exceptions. I believe in being the change I want made, but I"m hardly experienced as a moderator so it's a new adjustment. They're also existing communities so some mods usually have issues with that, though I'm always open to give mod status when relevant.

I'm a huge sci-fi fan and love the idea of a sci-fi server with communities for books, tv shows, etc to rehouse places like r/scifi, r/TheExpanse and r/SiloSeries. But as dev as I am I don't fancy running a server and being a super mod.

Hoping a small business sub pops up soon. I learn so much from that one on reddit

I agree. You can always just go for it though, and atleast grab a place holder. Then advertise and hand of the topic to a better qualified team. That's what I did for a lot official gaming discords I set up, but didn't really want to continue moderating.
