Beehaw Support

I did not see a community about disability, chronic illness, long-covid, accessibility, health issues, public health, and the fight against ableism. Is there one or did I just miss it? If there is none I think it would be good to have a community that allows talking about those issues specifically.

Self improvement based communities. Not something like /r/getmotivated where it's inspirational quotes and news that's actually depressing, but things like fitness communities (/r/EOOD for an example of a chill community, /r/xxfitness for a larger community) would be nice.

Would really like to see (broadly phrased) "disability, caregiver & elder support." I'm a brand new Reddit refugee, still wrapping my head around Beehaw, Lemmy, federation.

On Reddit, I have been active on a cluster of subs which have been of great significance in my coping ability. My partner of 26 years has been dx'd with Alzheimers. It's been a wild ride.

I don't think anyone over there is even aware of the go-dark campaign, or the impending July 1 Apocalypse. We're all more focused on the IRL issues, and not the platform where we discuss these issues. At least, I don't see any mention on the subs themselves.

If and when things get rough on Reddit, there will be a number of folks wondering wtf, and feeling very frustrated if this lifeline disappears for reasons they cannot fathom. Perhaps we could invite mods to port over or start afresh on Behaw, and to invite subscribers (some of whom are not tecchy in the least) to follow. I can supply a list of reddits I'd like to see join.

Thank you for considering.

I forgot to add that I'd love to see something for libraries/librarians, etc.

What about Explain Like I'm Five? That was a pretty cool sub, so it should be a pretty cool community on Lemmy and beehaw.org.

A place to look at online garbage fires and laugh

I think it's a very clever idea of you to force a small number of generic communities and then specialise later as the user base grows. Because by doing this, you are preventing the small and precious user base from fragmenting into many small, mostly dead communities. Funneling all users into a select few to ensure activity is more important for healthy growth imho.

porn. specifically hentai please. mayhaps with a smidgen of monstergirl flavouring? (:

Folks, you can see if the sub you want exists across the Lemmyverse here: https://browse.feddit.de/

or/and here https://lemmy.ca/c/communitypromo

I really enjoyed many of Reddit's image subreddits: ImaginaryCityscapes, ImaginaryVillages, and so on. Also many of the "____porn" ones: waterporn, cloudporn, earthporn (although we might want an alternative to the "porn" in the sub titles.

Id love more niche game subjects i cant find any community anywhere about visual novels for example (or personally just now related to a game called katawa shoujo)

OK, going by the subreddits i frequent the most and that i don't see (or missed like a blind bat) checking on browse.feddit.de :

• Everything wargaming-adyacent: From /r/wargaming, to subreddits about specific games like Infinity, 40K, Malifaux and others, to the crafting ones like minipainting and terrainbuilding, to even memes about all this
• Naturism: On Reddit there's two main ones, one dedicated to it on USA and another international, various minor ones, and again one dedicated to memes about it
• Is there an equivalent to /r/sysadmin?
• Subs for various minor geeky interests: Anime, cyberpunk, subs for specific shows, games, comics or movies, zombies, etc.
• Communities for major geographic regions/countries/cities maybe?
• Are you interested in opening the Pandora's Box that is NSFW? I suspect Reddit intends to purge them from the site sooner or later despite bringing in A LOT of traffic, so maybe they'd set up shop on Fedi too?

Horror would be great
