Yeah, I was quite disappointed to see that most, if not all, subreddits I follow had already shut down on Reddit. I mean, there's r/learnjapanese, r/fitness, r/iwanttolearn, r/piracy, r/nootropics... I could go on and on. I'm actually considering creating a Lemmy community in place of r/chineselanguage, since I see nothing of the sort has been created yet here. However I'm quite hesitant, since I don't really have the time nor interest in moderating a community, so... maybe I'll just wait for someone else to create it instead?

I'm still waiting for an SBC Gaming/handheld community and more fashion communities.
I would start them myself but ive been super busy recently :(
I'm not mod material but if someone wants to create /c/juggling and /c/throwers I am in for a sub
I'm missing r/Succulents, r/elite Dangerous, r/bisexual and r/watercooling. And r/MTB too. I hope some or all of those come over. Not having r/Succulents is distressing because they are a font of good information on rare plants.
- Complaint about on foot missions
- Newbie stuck with no fuel left
- Ad for an exploration expedition
- More complaints
- Bizarre conspiracy theory about something Thargoid or other
- Even more complaints
- Screenshot of an Asp in front of something
There you go, that should tide you over on the Elite thing at least!

I just created [email protected] as a general-purpose, inclusive cycling community! Feel free to post any MTB-related stuff :)

twobestfriendsplay has begun to spin up, so now all I need is my gacha shit and my TTRPG shit.
Not really, and I have low hopes of that happening, tbh.
Most communities are very low-tech, so users might have a hard time adapting to the environment.
Like for example the default search for communities should be All due to the confusion of search results only popping up with internal instance communities. I worked it out noticing no @ but most newbies will get confused and see jangled messes of community and instance addresses.
Yep, I agree. Joined through an instance run by a friend, so we might be able to tweak it locally, but unless we suggest it as a feature in git and merge it into the main built, I don't see that coming as a default setting.

One has, but there are no posts yet I've created another, created a post and am waiting to see if others move over. I plan on giving up modship ASAP because I'm not built for that. Yet another has and there's a bit of activity.

I think so. Not sure if it's official - as in, done by the mods - but there seems to be a few people over there already! CasualUK over on reddit was my favourite sub, and https://lemmy.world/c/ukcasual seems to be the place to be now on Lemmy.
Not official but we're just trying to carry on the best traditions of the original!
