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.
I know it’s unlikely but ask historians, the moderation required is unreal. More realistic would be bestofredditorupdates for all the mindless drama reading.
Bestofredditorupdates would be great since they contain all the relevant quotes so you wouldn’t need to click back to Reddit.
Would be nice to have historyporn migrate as well
r/AskHistorians, r/FrugalFemaleFashion, r/linux_gaming, r/oldhagfashion, r/rabm, r/SkincareAddiction, r/WitchesVsPatriarchy
AmitheAsshole. That place provided so much idle entertainment
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/AmItheAsshole@lemmit.online seems a bit wordy, but the most specific
Edit: actually looks to just be bots posting there for now
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)
Prefixing it with an exclamation mark automatically converts it into a link.
Disagree, I hope all those creative writing and “I did the sex” subs stay over there.
Wallstreetbets
Nah
IdiotsInCars was always an interesting time
That was my favorite sub. Probably the only one I’ll actually miss
I miss:
r/abrathatfits - those folks took it to 11 for helping people find the best fitting bras - no matter your shape, size or orientation.
r/makeupaddiction - as someone who constantly feels like they’re putting on greasepaint and not makeup, the sub was great for helping people get their cosmetics game on
r/skincareaddiction. - a great sub for anyone struggling with skin issues
r/haircarescience - another great sub to help people with all their hair struggles
r/loseit, r/cico, r/1200isplenty, and the more discrete offshoots - great for helping me structure dietary goals.
r/hysterectomy, r/diabetes - because support groups matter (and I didn’t find the Hystersisters very supportive when I first went there, years ago).
r/volumeeating, r/eatcheaply and healthfully - lovely food “hacks”
r/criticalrole (I do hope that we regenerate with Lemmy.world as I believe there is a community of Critters there).
r/aquariums - I used to have an aquarium when I was younger. I always wanted one as an adult, but I have to suffice by living vicariously through other enthusiasts.
r/superbowls - because: owls and because it’s fun to watch the American football enthusiasts get “lost" in January.
There are others (I subscribed to almost 250 subreddits), but I can’t remember them off-hand.
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.
Would love to see /r/dota2 move, but the mods there are overwhelmingly against it, and the people are split 50/50. !dota2@lemm.ee is almost exclusively populated by me
You’re doin’ good work B)
r/Writingprompts, I loved many of the short stories people posted there.
Loved all the circlejerk subs that existed for the communities I liked on reddit, often even moreso than the main sub lol
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.
HFY is a must have!
Yeah…hoping something comes out to archive all(?) of reddit and still be easily searchable/linkable if needed.
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.

I loved The Dirt Bike Kid when I was younger lol
It’s a gem of a movie. A wonderful train wreck of a film.

DankChristianMemes used to be pretty banger, I’m not sure if Lemmy attracted much of the religious crowd from Reddit though.
https://sub.rehab/ has a list of a lot of popular subs that have moved to the Fediverse!
That’s a great website. I wonder what the deal is with all the Discord communities. Not only is Discord horrible for forum based discussion, it’s probably next on this list to do a rug pull on its users.
Damn I miss r/math, also there are r/opendirectories and r/datahoarder
