Welp it's July 1st, and I actually had to move from lemmy.world over to lem.ee because that instance is being verryyy overloaded right now, lol.

I'm very new to Lemmy too and I already adore it. I'm really hoping to see lots of the Linux related subs become more prominent over here.

AmitheAsshole. That place provided so much idle entertainment

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Disagree, I hope all those creative writing and "I did the sex" subs stay over there.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Very true. https://lemmit.online/c/AmItheAsshole seems to be a relatively up and coming one?

Side question, what's the nomenclature for referencing communities/instances? c/[email protected] seems a bit wordy, but the most specific

Edit: actually looks to just be bots posting there for now

[email protected]

Prefixing it with an exclamation mark automatically converts it into a link.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lemmit.online is a bot instance that copies over communities from reddit, all of the posts there are just clones from reddit posts on the corresponding subreddit (without the comments)

Would love to see /r/dota2 move, but the mods there are overwhelmingly against it, and the people are split 50/50. [email protected] is almost exclusively populated by me

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You're doin' good work B)

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I know it's unlikely but ask historians, the moderation required is unreal. More realistic would be bestofredditorupdates for all the mindless drama reading.

Would love if the geopolitics people of anime_titties could move over, a lot of them were supporting the protests and may have considered making the jump. Right now, the only geopolitics community that I have found has 3 subscribers... Also wouldn't mind at some point to have a meta community aggregator like SubredditDrama, HobbyDrama or BestOfRedditorUpdates. It makes for excellent reading material while on the toilet.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

https://lemmy.world/c/anime_titties has just under a thousand subscribers

Redneck engineering

Boring dystopia, lost generation, anti-money memes, class consciousness memes itp.

Surreal memes, void memes, deepfried surreal memes, 5'th world pics itp.

Furry_irl, yiff

I'm honored.

HFY. I just love the idea. The genre I guess? I also would love to see the old content archived. There are some treasures in there, I would hate to get lost.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah...hoping something comes out to archive all(?) of reddit and still be easily searchable/linkable if needed.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

HFY is a must have!

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Damn I miss r/math, also there are r/opendirectories and r/datahoarder

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

IdiotsInCars was always an interesting time

r/badmovies <- home of truly bad cult films (think movies like The Dirtbike Kid, and not just "I just turned 14 and watched Starship Troopers for the first time and don't understand satire or who Paul Verhoeven is," which is what the sub has basically become on reddit over the past 2 years)

r/r9k <- random gay leftist memes

r/animecirclejerk <- Anime is great, but what's even better than anime is hating anime and the people who watch it for being degenerate pedophiles with poor media literacy (which is what most of them are).

r/trees <- weed lol

r/politics <- so that people who are too young to vote can share their political opinions while skimming the headlines and not reading the articles posted.

r/manga <- specifically links to new one shots and updates on when new chapters have posted, with discussions

r/selfhosted <- this one probably already exists in a few different places, I just need to find it.

r/comicbooks <- so people can complain about comic books while never actually reading any of them

r/todayilearned <- so people can spam mundane trivia from wikipedia you already know

r/amitheasshole <- so people who are assholes can try and convince other assholes online that they're not the asshole in their relationship.

r/leopardsatemyface <- for schadenfreude

r/EnoughMuskSpam <- a place for people who hate Elon Musk and other annoying billionaires to gather.

https://sub.rehab/ has a list of a lot of popular subs that have moved to the Fediverse!

r/Writingprompts, I loved many of the short stories people posted there.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Loved all the circlejerk subs that existed for the communities I liked on reddit, often even moreso than the main sub lol

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

DankChristianMemes used to be pretty banger, I'm not sure if Lemmy attracted much of the religious crowd from Reddit though.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

BestofLegalAdvice always had funny commentary on LegalAdvice

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Right now I wish all my game subs would recreate on Lemmy. I used Reddit mostly for entertainment, and getting info on games that I'm currently playing is actually what got me into Reddit for the first time.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

A lot of fandom-specific subs! With the typical main sub/meme sub/nsfw sub trinity, I’ve seen the main subs show up here with minimal activity while the meme and nsfw subs are nowhere to be seen. A lot of the big default subs have come here, but the fandom-based subs just exist as tiny communities with several thousand times less subscribers and nowhere near enough content to regularly show up on my subscribed feed.

[-] karlthemailman 2 points 1 year ago

r/selfhosted Seems like they should be on board with moving to something open, but hasn't happened yet

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago
[-] karlthemailman 1 points 1 year ago

The community exists, but it's not active at all

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I do find that to be true of a lot of communities right now

I miss r/VXJunkies and r/ThePack… I saw a community over here called VX Junkies but it seems more about hacking.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'll miss the breaking mom / broken mom communities

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Book of Norman.

The sub mod got it published and everything. The idea was to write a series of short stories involving the same character. This could easily be done here as well. It's one of the only OC subs that I ever saw. Like the Reddit community managed (without any help from Reddit) to put a book together. I still couldn't find a hardcopy to be delivered, but at least it made me a published author theoretically.

I also miss the makemeavideogame sub, which was only active for a a few months. The idea is great, but extremely difficult to do. It was fun though.

Let's create stuff.. not just links.

[-] PoisonG1fts 1 points 1 year ago

I guess it's kinda cheating but I miss a category of subs: those surrounding specific videogames. You'd get leaks, fan art, theories, gameplay, reviews etc. It was just a convenient hub for so much specific content

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago
  • Eurovision, having a community for people who enjoy the contest as much as I do helps a lot. The Eurovision Discord has listed some Lemmy/Kbin communities so that's good.
  • Some label- and artist-centric music communities, specifically deadmau5/mau5trap and Above & Beyond/Anjunabeats. Gonna find me a pop community like Popheads as well I think.
  • Polandball, gonna miss those the most leaving Reddit. The comics were fun and the balls are cute.
[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'd like to see the smaller fan communities for podcasts populate over here. r/blankies is the one I miss most, but we also need a Futurelings community for Omnibus podcast listeners.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I want to see PoliticalCompassMemes here, but we need user flairs for communities before that can really happen

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If it does, I hope it comes over as the original version of the sub when there was a good balance of people from all over the political spectrum and everyone made fun of themselves. These days it feels like a right wing meme sub for the most part where they just make fun of the left, so it kind of lost what made it unique and fun to engage with.

PrequelMemes would be a big one for me. I know it's one of the bigger ones but it still felt like a solid community.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

There's already some pretty established and active communities over here:

/c/Linux /c/archlinux /c/kde

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

TwoBestFriendsPlay it was such a stream of seemingly random, but somehow cohesive bullshit

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I have already found a lot of the same communities here on Lemmy. I am hoping to find new things that I didn't even know was out there. I would suggest scrolling All and subscribing to things that interest you.
