Videos/mealtimevideos was a big thing for me. They kept me entertained while I ate lunch, lol.

Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

MODERATORS
- More vinyl record collector communities. Always loved finding new music and seeing what interesting things people are picking up.
- Communities for specific, niche genres of music. Synthwave, mallcore, house music, jazz, etc.
- Archery! Love seeing the kind of things people are shooting, how people are shooting, getting advice, giving advice and learning new things about the sport.
- Geographically centered communities. I like having communities for my local state and cities to see what's going on in the area. Way more informative than local news.

I saw it sort of mentioned, but I think niche shitposting communities like the various okbuddy subs.
A sub for Bike Mechanic stuff - either submit a photo/issue, or brag about new tools kind of thing
There's [email protected], which is not exactly what you're asking about (and not on beehaw) but might be a good place for that kinda post in the meantime!
I'm a mod over at that sub - I'm glad you found it and thanks for sharing! Perhaps it might be good to do into to mechanics posts for people to learn stuff that they can do on their own if they are commuters.

Soccer and photography are probably the two main ones that come to mind for me. I'm really happy to see the new writing community, and I'm excited to see more specific creative communities come about.
I'd like to see a community specifically dedicated to tabletop RPGs. Don't think I've seen one of those yet.
I’ve subscribed over to the rpg community on lemmy.ml so now Beehaw should be federated over to it for interacting with it.
Tabletop has what i see as 3 main variants which are rather separate communities:
- RPGs
- Boardgames
- Wargames
Each has a gazillion little subdivisions, and there's related interests like miniature painting, terrain building, sculpting and others, but i guess a "tabletop" community would do until we grow more
For boardgames we have [email protected] which is pretty new but already has some fun threads. There is also [email protected] and [email protected] that are not as active yet.

Scuba diving! 🤿
Or just diving / water sports in general (although probably more thought should go into picking the name...). Specifically scuba is probably too niche to make an active community at this point in time, but it feels a little out of place in a more general sports community.
r/scuba was always a fun place to go and see people's cool videos of marine life and underwater selfies, as well as being a good place to ask questions and discuss gear.
For me it's
- /r/selfhosted
- /r/home server
- /r/3dprinting
There is a selfhosted instance on lemmy.ml :)

I really like changing my wallpapers, so something for mobile wallpapers. Also, I really enjoyed r/
whatisthisthing for wacky things people found
askdocs and legaladvice for advise on when to seek professional assistance
askreddit (which I see some posts, along with AMA-type things on c/chats)
YouShouldKnow and LifeProTips
Outoftheloop to ask questions for summaries (e.g., Why is everyone talking about Johnny Depp?)

DIY music making using DAWs (digital audio workstations). My personal preference being Reaper for its flexibility and low cost.

Something akin to /r/CharacterRant with interesting critique and analysis of media. Most of the same rules would apply and as long as people don't get into flame wars it would be a great fit for Beehaw. It would require a good bit of moderation, though.
/r/guitar, for those of use who struggle (and suck) at self-learning this amazing instrument.

Running, advanced running, running shoe geeks. Please?
ooohh yes please! and some cycling subs as well.
I agree, a lot of the PC building communities would be nice to have here
Crafting communities! I love seeing what people make in r/crochet and r/Brochet and they also tend to have really welcoming and kind users :)

Marx-Lenin
FFXIV, stuff like /r/StoriesAboutKevin and /r/TalesFromTechSupport, and /r/xena
r/momforaminute was lovely but might verge a bit too much into mental health support unless guard rails are made for such a community.
r/Aquariums, r/PlantedTanks, r/Aquascape !
