Asklemmy

Someone did make goblincore, but it’s still pretty empty and I’m not creative enough to meaningfully contribute.

I loved looking through all the happily amateur mossy green nature pics, tiny ecoscapes & terrariums, all the mushrooms, frogs, and foresty crafts & creations from people much more talented than myself.

The issue isn’t that the rooms don’t exist in this house, but more that the smaller niche ones are still just a couple shy people early to the party, waiting for the extroverts to show up lol

Also Select a Set was a very cool little music themed sub that I enjoyed participating in.

/scrungycats!

I’m still looking for a true crime / unresolved mysteries community.

...still waiting for whenthe community to get the ball rolling on Lemmy

Comicbooks.

I miss my guilty pleasure /r/NonCredibleDefense

Math communities for homework/excercises help.

Fighting games. I wasn't too surprised not to find communities for specific fighting games (other than Guilty Gear which I don't like) but no general community either?

A non-pornographic femboy and/or femboy discussion community (a pornographic one exists.) I'm still deciding whether I want to go back to Reddit or not and the thing that almost prompted me to go back right then and there was wanting to ask a question about fitting into women's clothes. This I think might be too niche to be useful on anything other than a big site.

prorevenge stories.

Glad that there is already [email protected] , but there isn't that much content yet.

But at least it exist 😁

I didn't see any communities about manga, though I know there is one about anime.

I used to browse /psychedelicrock , /krautrock and /nearprog fairly often as a source for new music and I haven't found anything to replace them yet.

Specific musician ones. At the moment there's a bunch of Jeff Rosenstock teases happening and right now is when I'd be going to that subreddit to see others discussing them. But it's gone and at the moment there's no replacement.

I also miss the specific opening weekend discussions on r/movies. I think there is a movies community somewhere but I've not seen it pop up on my "active" feed.

L4L (or, R4R). It went private on Reddit and is still dark. Probably not enough users on Lemmy for it to be viable here yet though.

/r/askscience /r/askmen and the ones for the TV shows I watch.

ramimemes and okbuddychicanary are two i miss

It’s the off-season right now, but I’m hoping a successor to /r/icecoast gets established by October or November. (East coast skiing and snowboarding.)

A community about fountain pens and calligraphy, I loved watching that stuff

The various personal finance related subs. There are some communities with similar names, but the depth of experience is lacking.

r/writingprompts

/r/fountainpens

I'll see myself out.

I do not miss the circle jerk subs. I admit some were funny, but most were just mean-spirited and ended up becoming worse than whatever it was they set out to make fun of. For example, the books circle jerk sub was full of snobs who snarked at people in the books sub for...gasp... liking popular books.

There's just something inherently pathetic in using a platform to make fun of others on the same platform. It's like going to a dance party solely to stand on the side and make fun of the way people dance.

I hope that sort of thing doesn't catch on here. But the "asshole filter" could creep in if lemmy reaches a high user population.

I want even more animals! Rat, rabbit, mouse, everything!

I'm missing pretty much all the "League of Legends Mains" communities, especially ADCMains and SamiraMains. They were one of my absolute go-to subreddits and the only reason I haven't fully deleted my account yet.

Other then that it's mostly niche things, especially very niche wholesome fem-oriented NSFW subs
