Honestly its just my local city subreddit, and the community for my favorite 2nd tier sports team. It has barely enough users even on reddit though, so it probably won't survive with a smaller overall user base.

Most of these are on Reddit, but there may be a few that I thought could be specific, but not as niche as some of the ones on reddit. (like no community just for one game)

Van conversion/van life

Birding

Camping and hiking

AmITheAsshole

Each state in the US

Longevity

Kindlescribe/e-ink

RestlessLeg (or a chronic condition community)

Woodworking (bigger builds)

Carving (smaller builds, not furniture or big stuff)

Nutrition

NextFuckingLevel

JRPG

Turn-Based RPGs

Action/Adventure Games

r/Arduino!

I miss the retro gaming and computing subreddits, and I miss the circlejerk subs, they're comedy gold.

/r/FreeGameFindings

Conlangs!

There are several groups on reddit that I have enjoyed, and am going to really miss unless I find some fediverse versions. It's the agony columns, all the ones where people ask for advice. Like r/AITA, and r/RomanticAdvice. There are so many of them.

What are some similar ones in this platform?

Big city communities. Like Milwaukee (could fit into Midwest social)

malelivingspace, blacksmithing, fishing, hunting, calligraphy, archery, wma, preppersales

Why is there no /c/TIL ?

r/kamenrider, r/supersentai or any of the tokusatsu subs for that matter

r/anarchychess. Where else would I get seventeen unoriginal en passant jokes a day?

I’ve setup an instance focused on some niche topics and hobbies, there’s not much there yet but here they are if anyone wants to check them out:

FFXIV → https://possumpat.io/c/ffxiv

Bugs → https://possumpat.io/c/bugmenagerie

Esports → https://possumpat.io/c/esports

Gundam → https://possumpat.io/c/gundam

Star Trek → https://possumpat.io/c/startrek

Xenoblade → https://possumpat.io/c/xenoblade

I want to see r/conlangs migrating.

It's the only subreddit that I'm still contributing in good faith with. The community is beehaw levels of nice, and the mods are surprisingly competent and decent people, not trashy like the r/linguistics ones.

The only issue with r/conlangs is that it's in Reddit. But if they were to migrate, frankly? I'd be glad to help them out. Perhaps even donate to whatever instance they create.

r/NixOS

humansbeingbros is my wholesome dose, so to me that'd be essential.

Oh and also cozyplaces. It's quite fun and interesting to see how people make their living environment quite so cozy and enjoyable.

r/LittleBigAdventure, r/OpenMW, r/RimWorld, r/Thrive, r/adhdmeme, and r/WarAndPeas (whose user has a mastodon account too).

I really hope /r/xbiking makes its way here! I'm addicted to seeing their creations.

Where's all the game developer communities?

r/vinyl, r/audiophile, r/dankchristianmemes, r/steamdeck, r/neovim, r/bash, r/awk, r/ambientmusic

I would like r/autism

marijuanaenthusiasts, DankVotingReformMemes, designdesign, GlamourBeards, HeavySeas, ididthejobboss, itsslag, mechanical_gifs, Justrolledintotheshop, NeutralPolitics, Unextexted, StraightsBeingOK, StreetArtPorn, Zoomies, wowthissubexists, streetwear, specializedtools, britishproblems, so many!

/r/sweden /r/languagelearning /r/svenska /r/girlgamers and /r/witchesvspatriarchy

I hope that the main Xenoblade subreddit can have a faction over here. There's lots of interesting comments there.

r/ipod The iPod modding community is alive and well and I love it.

I would like to see:

r/NoSleep r/skincareaddiction r/math r/cpp r/python r/gonewildaudio

/r/pencils It's not weird I like pencils!

• Wow, wownoob, and other game specific subreddits.
