Reddit refugees, has your favorite sub migrated already? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already.

Despite that, some of my hobby ones still aren't here. NFL exists, but it's the same as nothing so far. Soccer I couldn't find at first, maybe today it already does? Also, no sign of fantasy football.

I also followed a bunch of History subs, but looks like most people in Lemmy only care about science and technology.

Tell us, what is missing for you?

Yes but there's only 7 subscribers and I'm the only post :(

Then again it's a niche community about a fantasy series, I'm not surprised it doesn't have much going on yet.

Edit- still getting used to this and my search on jerboa isn't pulling anything for wheeloftime

I'm going through my backlog rn, recently picked reading back up after college killed my voracious appetite. Currently working through my very first few WH40K books, after that I'll probably read Dune. I've heard good stuff about WoT, how is it? I've read some fantasy staples but I'd be lying if I said I was a connoisseur. I just know my teachers in school didn't like the author.

WoT fans love the series and can make fun of some of the styling.

WoT detractors have obviously read the series judging by their criticism.

It's kinda addictive. When it's good, it's great. When it's bad, it's tolerable.

You really want to know what happens next....and at least you're not starting it before it has been finished. You didn't want to live through THOSE years.

Overall, I'm a fan. Its a LOT lighter than Dune, which I also like, but for different reasons.
