Personally i’m looking forward to seeing twobestfriendsplay, arkhamasylum, whowouldwin, and respectthreads, on here.
Waiting on r/linuxmasterrace tbh
A lot of these aren’t exactly “niche”, but afaik none of them exist on lemmy yet
Edit: for some reason, a bunch of these that actually do exist weren’t showing up in search unless I specifically searched for “!community@instance”. I’ve gone back through and added links to them here.

Holy Hell!
New community just dropped
I made femboy_irl today - !femboy_irl@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz
Currently it only has 3 ppl subscribed to it but hopefully it’ll grow :)
Thanks for the shoutout!
Unfortunately the people behind r/visualnovels seem to not have even noticed the most recent reddit drama as of yet…hopefully they migrate over soon.
brilliant list!
Hey, I also noticed the lack of a madoka magica community, so I created !madokamagica@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz
Big anime titties, medium anime titties, banned in Australia anime titties, and monster girls.
This seems way too unlikely to happen, but r/askhistorians. It’s an exceptionally well moderated (if a bit overzealous) community that allows for both the average person to ask seemingly impossible, very specific questions as well as academics to express their knowledge and passion for those very same super specific topics they find fascinating; but have difficulty finding an audience to listen to them in their day to day lives.
I’m really hoping for some quality archaeology/anthropology/history content as well, I started !humans@terefere.eu for a kind of catch-all community (and yes, that’s the best name I could come up with)
r/woodworking would be nice.
r/outside. That place is such a needed mental break.
Oh boy , it will be fun when 2westerneuropean4you gets here
r/liveaudio r/mixingandmastering r/bitwig r/ableton r/ethereum
all of the Linux subreddits I browse + r/selfhosted, r/homelab, r/datahoarder.
all of these seem like easy fits for the fediverse.
There are already similar communities for the last three ones:
Not that they are the only ones, but the ones I’ve seen.
Try out lemmy.studio
You may need to setup a community or two though.
Oh shit, am I a niche communities redditor already feeling anxious about losing all my anonymous internet peeps.
r/vxjunkies - Although that sub is most fun when randos stumble onto it and get confused. Which might not work as well in Federation world.
r/worldbuilding, r/loremasters
r/TolkeinFans. Discussing the legendarium on a scholarly level.
r/nsfwworldbuilding (which is a great place for thoughtful, mature, intellectual conversations about really creative ideas like quantum pregnancy and all male Orc societies … and THEN pictures of nude bee women leaking honey from their boobs).
r/magicthecirclejerking, r/linuxcirclejerk, r/whowouldcirclejerk - these subs are my go to “I need to laugh” subs.
r/AskHistorians. What can replace this awesomeness… like ever?
r/ShermanPosting. Make this angry leftist feel like a burning patriot.
r/LateStageCapitalism. I need my angry leftist anticap memes.
r/StableDiffusion
r/Swahili? It’s a beautiful language.
r/ImaginaryDerelicts… Here is a hauntingly beautiful rabbit hole for you to fall down.
r/PrintSF… it’s literally how I find new books to rea…listen to. I consume audiobooks at a terrifying rate.
r/Podcasts because see above.
r/Qubes. I like my linux like I like my lovers, paranoid and with DID.
r/HomeNetworking
r/AskNetSec and r/OpSec
r/FifthWorldProblems and it’s multiverse of affiliates, including r/MadMudMen and r/EnglightenedBirdMen
r/Daddit. I posted my “Here we are at a playground for the first time” pictures 12 years ago… I was looking forward to reposting those alongside the graduation pictures in 4 years.
r/WitchesVsPatriarchy. Yes, I’m a cishet white man, fuck the patriarchy and fuck toxic masculinity.
r/ChaoticGood. This sub makes me happy.
Is there seriously no r/WhoWoulWin equivalent? That boggles me.
We also REALLY need something like r/findareddit, if there isn’t such a thing yet.
Have found NonCredibleDefense.
There are a few pages available that list communities and instances. These are good:
- midwest.social/c/communities
- browse.feddit.de
r/worldbuilding
we have that here https://lemmy.ml/c/worldbuilding@lemmy.ml you can search communities using this link https://lemmy.ml/communities
now the only problem bring people to using lemmy
Since I posted this I’ve found that and some of the others. But man… I’m gonna miss VX Junkies.
i will miss noncredibledefence, stellaris and buttcoin too if reddit drop free api for third-party apps. and i also dont think people on that sub care about reddit drama currently
Finding out about new podcasts is something I’ll really miss about Reddit. I feel like that’s not even that niche/small, surely one will pop up soon!
some of the more or less interesting ones i came across…
r/InternetIsBeautiful r/AlpineLinux r/CoOpGaming r/antiXLinux r/devuan r/gamedeals r/privacyhardware r/opensourcegames r/FreeGaming r/fossdroid r/linux4noobs r/commandline r/channelsofyoutube r/DeepIntoYouTube r/ChannelWatch r/EatCheapAndHealthy r/Foodforthought r/initFreedom r/irc r/KeepOurNetFree r/linux_devices r/suckless r/techsupport r/unknownvideos r/usenet r/youtubeclassics r/suggestmeabook r/thinkpad r/DistroTube r/odysee r/lbry r/peertube r/FOSSPhotography r/DepthHub r/TrueFilm r/socialscience r/AskSocialScience r/UpliftingNews r/LinuxPhones r/startpages r/terminal_porn r/nodrm r/Antifeatures r/FreeAudio r/listentothis (separated by genre)
I’ve found some of them:
Would love to see about starting up something like r/gamedeals once I get the hang of this place. I’m always on the lookout anyways.
r/buttcoin, every time I feel bad about myself I like reading about crypto fails to remind myself that I could have made even worse decisions.
r/noncredibledefense, makes the horror of the war not far from me a bit more bearable

I desperately will need a new OutoftheLoop lol. A new DIWHY as long as it also doesn’t get filled with ragebait…
Oh man, I remember back when there was no ragebait on DIWhy. What a glorious time that was. It was like RedneckEngineering meets ATBGE
I was actually thinking of opening up a upvotedbecauseofboobs and hornyjail 😂. Shouldn’t take too much moderation, it’s NSFW by default 😂.
Good news on one of your requests! There seems to already be a piracy community here.
Yeah, I think I found it, LOL 😂. I can’t seem to find a search option on Jerboa, but I logged in through the browser, you can search in there.
It’s the 3 stacked lines icon on the bottom bar, beside the Home icon. It seems like that if you input part of the community name, it’ll find it, but it doesn’t seems to find communities by topic or anything like that.
That is… competely unintuitive 🤨… like why not just have a spyglass icon there, why the hamburger thing 🤨… maybe it’s a bug 🤷.
Yeah, it searches only by community name, not by topic, but hey, reddit works the same way (almost) and I didn’t really mind that.
What bugs me is the URL handling, it keeps redirecting me to a browser, then I have to copy the instance-community link and copy it back here for the search 😒.

Agreed hahaha.

The search redirects me within the app, but links for communities in comments seem to open in the browser. Seems that that are still some bugs here and there in the app.

Yeah, that’s what I meant.
I’m still finding my way around, too. But so far I’m liking it. Love your instance name lmao
I use the same on reddit, figured if people transfered here, might as well keep the same uname, lol 😂.
2nd all the edm, edm production subs and add r/synthesizers. Lemmy needs more blippy bloops
Actually a few, but to list some
r/PublicDomainr/MirrorsEdgeAesthetics
r/MovieSuggestionsr/LostMediarMediumReadingsr/RockinTheClassicsr/CarHacking could also be good
Maybe~~ r/iwatchedanoldmovie ~~ Some game specifics sub’s like r/MetalGearSolid, r/MetalSlug and r/HalfLife, r/moddergearsolid is a particularly obscure one.
Most of the console modding subs like r/360hacks, r/WiiUHacks which is going dark, r/PS3Homebrew and so on.
From my own feed that’s about it, with the exception of some piracy ones like rCemuPiracy r/LinuxCrackSupport and r/SteamDeckPirates, among others. And a couple in particular that push a bit closer to the work unsafe side, so those wouldn’t be here.
r/AmITheAsshole and r/BestofRedditorUpdates. I love the drama.
