Just a working list - feel free to add to it. I realize that some of these might already exist, and I just missed them. Here's what I've got so far:

  • Book suggestions
  • Obscure Media
  • New England
  • Massachusetts
  • separate communities for every other state too
  • Mildly interesting
  • Antiwork
  • Anti-Amazon
  • buy it for life

At first I read "would not like to see replicated" and I almost got upset, haha.

For me:

  • Fountain pens
  • Communities for different countries/regions or different language-speakers - on Reddit, I often lurked /r/de, /r/Philippines, etc.
  • Mechanical keyboards
  • Woodworking
  • Oddly satisfying
  • Star Trek
  • Battlestations

I definitely second BIFL, Antiwork, and different communities for U.S. states, as I don't often get to connect with other people from Texas on the Fediverse.

Yes to the language-learning one! I really need to have a space to support my goal of learning German. I'm already really missing that resource that I had on Reddit.

r/france was really fun to hang around for language learning reasons! I loved their sense of humour. Their thread about whether the subreddit should blackout (i.e. strike) over what was going on was absolutely hilarious. It went something like:

Mods: Hey r/france we're wondering whether we should strike on... Redditors: Yes.

Here's one sub I found for mechanical keyboards

I'm starting to quite like this whole fediverse thing. I'm linking one community in one instance in another instance, while accessing all that from a third different instance, and it all works seamlessly
