I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already.

Despite that, some of my hobby ones still aren't here. NFL exists, but it's the same as nothing so far. Soccer I couldn't find at first, maybe today it already does? Also, no sign of fantasy football.

I also followed a bunch of History subs, but looks like most people in Lemmy only care about science and technology.

Tell us, what is missing for you?

Well I've found a Soccer sub, but that's about it

Ffs just realised just how many subs I've been participating in over there, would be a big loss

None of the No Man's Sky subs have shown indications of moving, which bums me out. I'd much rather get my glyphs, neat screenshots, and wild speculation from a forum rather than Discord.

Game-specific subreddits (i.e., LegendsofRuneterra, PathofChampions, CustomLoR, MagicArena, leagueoflegends, starcraft, Factorio, LastEpoch, ftlgame). [email protected] looks good.

Franchise-specific subreddits like Batman. [email protected] looks good.

Entertainment (i.e., Showerthoughts, oddlysatisfying, interestingasfuck, DesignDesign, EngineeringPorn, OldSchoolCool).

Niche art (i.e., PixelArt, RetroFuturism, cassettefuturism, TheNightFeeling).

I expect the first two categories (where I commented most) to be the slowest to move here.

I'm going to miss the mycology sub, haven't had any luck in finding something similar yet.

I got very lucky, there is a whole instance dedicated to flight simulation and aviation now! lemmyfly.org if anyone is wondering.

My subreddit list on Reddit was quite long, so it'll be a while until I have a comparable list with silly communities.

i'm trying to "migrate" my favorite subs to kbin. i am getting errors... don't know if i've met a limit or if everything is just overloaded rn

edit: after some hours, i'm allowed to make new "magazines" on kbin. god bless

desperately need r/196 over here plspls

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

It would be kinda nice if /aaaaaaacccccccce made it over. I know there's a lgbt on beehaw but it's not quite the same if that makes sense.

FFXIV, most of the writing subs, Another Eden, I don't think FoundryVTT has moved yet, PF2E, there aren't nearly as many cute-animal communities yet, etc.

Not yet, I made a couple for discussions about whiskey and steam remote play (playing steam games on your phone and stuff). I just realized I should post the massive guide I wrote for the latter in the new community!

I scanned quickly through the comments here so I may have missed any mentions, if there were any... But my suggestion is: there should be a master/stickied list of equivalent subreddits. So in the future, people can just google [subreddit name] + lemmy (or kbin or beehaw etc etc).

Preferably the same exact subreddit name. Or are those subreddit names owned by Reddit? Can they come after us?

Some have, some haven't.

Two which haven't are /r/sweden and /r/languagelearning hopefully they'll come soon.

I mostly used /r/Denmark. Now I use the feddit.dk instance, but it isn't officially supported by the /r/Denmark mods.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (4 children)

It has, but it's quite empty yet. There are some posts, but I can seem to be able to reply sometimes. I use the "Jerboa" app and I get a "language not allowed" error. Anyone knows how to fix this?

A user migrated one, I migrated another. Neither have had activity worth mentioning.

There's a handful of others I used heavily that haven't though. I'm missing r/metalmemes in a bad way lol.

I'm hoping for some specific craft communities, but for now it makes sense to huddle together in [email protected]. We do love to show off pics of all our projects though so I expect it won't be too long before it makes sense to start splitting that up.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

I follow a lot of niche hobby and some other communities that haven't come over yet.

A couple have started to shuffle on over but not a lot yet.

I also followed a lot (like a serious amount) of art subs that haven't seemed to come over yet. I basically followed most of the "imaginary[insert niche here]" subs.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (7 children)

I mean I mainly spent my time on the UK based subs and we've got United Kingdom and casualuk equivalents here already which is good. They both need a lot more users though.

Mainly what I'm missing are skateboarding, more specific music subs like metal, punk etc., but those will come in time I'm sure.

Nice to be here by the way, still getting used to how the whole fediverse thing works but it seems pretty cool so far!

Maybe some IT meme subs. I feel like those will be on here soon enough.

I also miss my local subs. I live in a midsized city and it's going to take quite a lot of time for it to migrate. I don't want to start it myself because the community is pretty toxic, but it has helpful information. What I'm saying is, I don't want to be a moderator to that community hah.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

There's [email protected] to get us started at least

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (5 children)

Not really, but it's not overly surprising really.

Most of my favourite subs are pretty nerdy, niche ones, or kinda based on a stupid joke. So the likes of /headphones /iPod /BicyclingCircleJerk may or may not make it over here.

The art sharing subreddits like Imaginary Network, /r/awwnime, /r/patchuu, /r/moescape and similar. I want to start an instance that automatically crossposts from those subreddits to the Fediverse, and users here can also contribute with artwork that fits the community's theme. It'll probably fetch the posts through RSS to avoid the API limits, but who knows if Reddit might shut that down too. So I'll have to wait until this API situation stabilizes.

I just subscribed to my local city of /c/Boston - but there are no posts yet. I just really want a space where I can talk about local current events, news, business openings and closures, infrastructure projects, etc.

I also liked going into other city's subs to see what's going on before travelling. In Reddit, they were always great spaces for restaurant recommendations, helpful tips and tricks, tourist traps to avoid, etc.

One of my main subs was /r/cfb, I don't think it has transitioned yet... Hopefully it'll get up and running before football season starts.
