Smaller specific subs like the city close to me. I see that Midwest instance is pretty big which is cool

All of them. Thereβs so much collective knowledge stored in the comments, posts and subreddit menus, and itβs going to disappear. Stupid spez
Definitely whatisthisthing. There was a truly specialized group of finders there who're unlikely to make the move.
Am I The Asshole and all the crafting subs - quilting, sewing, cross stitch
First time posting here, and still figuring it out. Excited about the new possibilities. I was a redditor for ever a decade. Throughout the years I've had several favorite subs, and some I simply followed because of the quality moderation and content like with r/AskHistorians. What I'm going to miss the most, however, is the reddit lore and history. The good, funny, bad, and even ugly. From the Swamps of Dagobah, to the rise and fall of u/Unidan.
It's been a good ride with reddit, but I'm excited to be part of a new start and new culture.
Not gonna lie, but for me, it's gonna be mostly the hobby relaxed ones like
- r/diydrones
- r/fpv
- r/radiocontrol because I don't think many of them are willing to switch to another platform. The tech subs about 3d printing and stuff already exist here and simply need to grow.
For me it's the German ones. I moved to Australia in the late 90s, and they help me keep up with things a tiny bit, so the culture shock isn't too big on my rare outings back home.
Also cats. Cats are nice.
See if the lemmy instance feddit.de can help you scratch that german itch. It's growing and has a range of reemerging communities.
I sure hope people aren't deleting all their old useful guides and troubleshooting posts. Yesterday I was playing Stardew Valley, I had a simple question, so I duckduckgo-ed it and found some promising links on r/StardewValley, but StardewValley was private. Very frustrating. I hope this isn't the norm. So, so far...that. I miss StardewValley. Besides that, I will miss r/bestofredditorupdates
r/AskHistorians - mostly because of the unprecedented quality of moderation r/MaleFashionAdvice - helped me appreciate fashion and nice clothes
r/noncredibledefense 100%. they've reliably proved to be the most reliable right source about the war in ukraine. also extremely funny.
Iβm going to miss the non-technical subreddits I visit. Iβm sure all the ones geared toward techy people will end up migrating, but the othersβ¦ Iβm not sure. And Iβm not interested in running anything myself, itβs more responsibility than I want. The niche ones will be hard to find as well - sometimes I just want pictures of snakes with hats!
- r/thesims
- r/fountainpens
- r/snakeswithhats
- r/shittygifrecipes
- my cityβs subreddit
People are going to hate me for this but I'll miss the furry subreddits like r/furry and r/furryartschool, there's a lot of cute and wholesome art posted there.
Also going to miss r/AromanticAsexual that was a good support community to discuss aspects of being aromantic-asexual and the hardships that come with it.
I'm really hoping that they'll eventually come here to Lemmy.
I'm a bug enthusiast, so insect specific subreddits like r/moth r/weevil r/entomology
Game ones for all my random niche games I like.
But also I have a lot of health problems so going to those specific subs with my specific problem and knowing I'm not crazy felt really liberating. I know there's a new disability thing on here, but collectively being in a community with the people who have my specific problem made me feel less alone.
Idiotsincars... but there are just *so many *idiots out there so I'm sure I'll find a replacement for it.
Shitposting/humour subreddits for niche topics, like r/languagelearningjerk, r/vexillologycirclejerk and r/worldjerking
r/CatsStandingUp
r/creativecoding
r/fucklawns
r/MightyHarvest
r/MLS
r/Typography
r/Vexillology
For my other interests in music and technology, there are lots of other places to find community. These were more special to Reddit.
For most I don't think people care too much about the larger subs, but the more niche ones. Like I'm a huge wrestling fan, so watching r/squaredcircle go is sad given how it was a hub for all of pro wrestling.
Console and individual game ones mostly, also my local subreddit (japanlife). I'm sure I'll learn to live without them eventually, but I'm just so used to that structure that it's going to be hard at first...
The thing I will miss the most though is how RiF allows me to instantly jump to a subreddit just by typing a part of its name, no need to subscribe or anything. This is how I've been browsing for years, so having everything combined together is hard to get used to. I'll manage in time, hopefully.
Shout-out to all the nephews on r/NBA
Going to miss the shitty takes and off-season content
All my hobby subreddits (origami, bouldering, cubers). Not nearly as big as a lot of other subs but they're great
Wherever we live, subs for our local communities will be missed.
Dumb stuff I'm interested in like:
One piece, guitar pedals/lessons, some jerk subs, nfl for football season, and a few of the more popular ones.
First post here!
Reddit was better than pornhub:
/r/paag ( /u/hayleyxyz, /u/due_return_719) /r/realasians /r/tightdresses /r/nsfw /r/nsfw_gif
I was always a fan of the video subs like public freakout and crazy videos, I'm gonna miss those
/r/nobuy, they are a very supportive community.
I'm definitely gonna miss some of the AMAs.
I miss how AMA used to be. But it's been years since I enjoyed one. There's definitely room for a better version of that. It will be hard get the kinds of high profile people that Reddit gets without a bigger user base but it could happen.
