I personally can’t wait to see communities like r/hiphopheads, r/internetisbeautiful, r/listentothis, r/battlestations… join lemmy and become as active as they are on reddit. what are some of y’all fav?
I’m surprised nobody mentioned my absolute fav /r/askhistorians
Yes, absolutely!
And it needs to be well modded.
Please PLEASE get this one up and running! That place is a treasure trove of information. So much so, they should have their own website while maintaining a lemmy domain. That info should be disseminated across multiple platforms so it isn’t lost.
I just want to see enough folks from some of the gaming communities move over: (Most of these have small communities already, I just want growth!)
2007scape for the memes
Satisfactory for the incredible creativity
Nomanssky for the same reason ^
Forzahorizon for the weekly challenge discussions and screenshots
FFXIV for the community ‘vibe’
Really any game with a fun online community, these are just a few of the ones I enjoy.
Yeah, Satisfactory for sure and satisfactoryporn for the incredible builds

The music production ones r/ableton r/audioengineering r/mixingandmastering r/maschine
yes add to the list: r/musicmaking, r/headphones, r/audiophiles, r/indieheads, r/WeAreTheMusicMakets, r/drumkits, r/bandcamp, r/vintageobsecura and I’ll be the happiest kid lurking around here
Lenny.film has a headphones community but it’s just starting out.
The anime and manga communities are totally silent on Lemmy. Would be great if we can have some weeb juice flowing here as well.
r/wicked_edge, r/nosurf, r/meditation
WickedEdge already exists on this platform, but it’s not active and doesn’t have the same community. These niche communities will not be the same as those on Reddit since many of the people are normies and don’t care at all about Reddit’s shitty platform. I would open some communities on my own, but I’m not an expert in these fields, like for example in shaving, and I couldn’t be of any help for other people.
Arts (Printmaking, Graffiti, sculpture, calligraphy, typography, design), and all the SFW porn subs.
Also, I’m really amazed that https://lemmy.world/c/sourdough is already quite active.
/r/resume was great, as well /r/cscareeradvice, and really any career centric subs. Being able to bounce career questions off of others is an absolute gold mine of information that only serves to forward the field.
My ultimate guilty pleasure – gossip and snark communities.
For me, sports communities. Game day threads are a blast.
Health-related communities, particularly those for specific medical conditions. Those are the communities that really become a lifeline for people, help them through diagnoses or just difficult times, and can serve as an excellent resource. I was active on r/diabetes_t1 on Reddit and am trying to get a community started here on Lenny.world (!T1diabetes).
Yes! Also kinda related, I liked r/SocialAnxiety and r/Dyslexia. It’s a place where we can go and help/encourage eachother.
Yes these are exactly the kinds of communities I’m hoping will get replicated on Lemmy.
Normalnudes
IntermittentFasting
NoSleep
Written erotica, any of them.
The general “Music” and “Movie” threads because I did discover stuff on them as well as being able to suggest stuff.
But have been satisfied with some of these that are still small but growing - curlyhair, science fiction, cocktails (mine now), fermentation and sourdough. And overall happy to give up the faster moving subs and be here for the beginning time.
r/intp. Also miss the active python and data analysis subs, I know there are python communities here but they seem quiet.
All of them.
FFXIV, Steam Deck, ARAD
I’ve been using ffxiv@possumpat.io but it’s definitely not as active as /r/ffxiv.
Tip of my tongue.
I liked to browse /r/cd_collectors and /r/fragrance
I liked seeing /r/witchesVSpatriarchy on /r/All, but I never really followed them.
Edit: spelling.
