r/ukraine I really hope to see something similar here soon.

Don't be afraid to create your own communities!

I'm someone that doesn't have many friends or many people to talk to about life and it's dilemmas. So when I had any sort of problem I often went to advice type subreddits to talk it out. So yes AITA was one. But also AmIBeingTooSensitive, Relationships, OffMyChest, etc. And I'm a mom so parenting subreddits were a good resource. And also subreddits like LoseIt and PetiteFitness were helpful because I struggle with my weight.

But one thing I noticed before all the drama was that the people on reddit got more and more hateful. Instead of trying to help the poster, they'd tried to find more to the story to make them this evil person. And they'd completely fabricate a separate reality and just tear OP a new one based off of assumptions.

So I was already kinda done with Reddit before the drama with 3rd party apps. I knew that it was causing me more problems than help. I had already started telling myself to stay away. It's toxic. So I'm happy to have an excuse to get out.

So hopefully an alternative emerges with nicer people. Or maybe I should just go find friends.

/r/apolloapp

Indie game communities, I just love looking at niche memes you only understand if you have played those games, and don't let me get started on the amazing art people put in there. There are some talented and passionate people out there, I hope eventually some hop over here.

There was a lot of leftist communities on reddit that I hope survive in some form fuckcars, antiwork, fucklawns, breadtube.

All the cat subs. If I was having a shitty day I could always go to reddit and look at other people's cats.

r/todayifuckedup

While most of the stories are fake, I enjoy a subreddit that shows that my fuck-ups aren't so bad, after all.

No time like the present! This place is 10 days old, so get making the places you wish to see :) I intend to get NoSleep an early start, but am far from experienced enough. That's fine though, it's all new for everyone here

r/Fedora and r/ThinkPad. Those are the two I spent the most time in. I will also really miss my guilty pleasure subreddits like r/gaystoriesgonwild, r/Twinks, and r/GayKink. Haha.

I'm going to miss a lot of the hobby subs like r/Unclebens and r/datahoarder but I'm excited to see how they grow here

All the porn and nsfw content. Brings a tear to my eye.

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'm gonna miss /r/buttcoin. It's a great place to watch crypto bros lose everything. How will I know when cz is arrested?

I'm going to miss all the curly hair subs, it's a niche topic but something I feel like I know a lot about. I really wanted a text based of the main sub though, apparently I found r/curlyhaircare is like that. Going to not go on reddit though as much as possible.

I’ll miss all my goofy cat subreddits. They were kind of my go to when I was having a crap mental health day.

my first comment!

i’m going to miss formuladank. i’ll try to start every single sub i’ll miss on here though. my account is only a few minutes old

The gardening subs always made me feel like I could do anything in my tiny garden as long as I put in the work.

There are so many… I used the platform for 8 years and really learned something new whenever I opened the App… I hope a lot of them will find their way over here.

All of the TV series subs and the discussions. It's great after watching an episode to join the discussion with others.

If I’m being honest, I was a big browser of NSFW subreddits and I’m hoping that lemmy will grow and create a space for NSFW communities that are well-moderated and safe.

r/Buttcoin

All the mycology subs, but I'm thinking of rebooting them here. All the synthesizer subs. All the subs with eerie places like r/AbandonedPorn, r/RustyRails etc.

I'm going to miss browsing r/all for a good laugh and interesting stuff. I'm going to miss stumbling upon random subreddits with topics and interests I didn't even know existed like r/Jarrarium, r/DesirePath or r/ThatBathroomMazeDream

/r/anime_titties, which despite the name was a world new aggregator sub that did a great job of not being too euro-centric. The best part that it brought people from many political ideologies and countries, so it was far less of an echo-chamber than most news subs. It still trended left, but it was a good mix.

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.

/r/OnlyFans
https://web.archive.org/web/20230325223700/https://old.reddit.com/r/OnlyFans/

r/cancer It was a nice space to find support of other people going through what I'm going through.

Game specific ones. /r/hyruleengineering and /r/darktide as recent ones.

All the /r/_irl communities. The later seems like one I could probably just start and post in, even if no one else sees them.

• r/Android
• r/androidafterlife
• r/androidapps
• r/antiwork
• r/CrackWatch
• r/DataHoarder
• r/fossdroid
• r/GameDeals
• r/MouseReview
• r/opensource
• r/patientgamers
• r/Piracy
• r/selfhosted
• r/soccer

Nosleep and its assorted subs... I've been reading there since it had roughly 300 subscribers. I really hope the community rebuilds here.

HobbyDrama and similar subs. They're the Fandom_Wank of the Reddit era and I honestly love every bit of it. I'll miss Rimworld, too.

Since i'm just starting to get into home lab and self hosting I'll miss r/homelab, and r/homelabsales

For me, I liked more niche subreddits like r/Paranormal and r/Glitch_in_the_Matrix - along with the local city subs. There's no place like local

I'm really going to miss BestofRedditorUpdates. I could literaly spend hours reading.

It’s just cool to see the variety of refugees here sharing memories of their previous communities in the once glorious homeland made uninhabitable by the authoritarian regime.

I'll miss clicking Top of All Time in all subreddits. In here I have to wait YEARS before I can find the Top of All Time content.

r/sffpc, r/iiiiiiitttttttttttt, and r/techsupportgore mostly
