For me, it's a few things.

  1. A way to burn time that doesn't feel like a digital sugar rush.

  2. Support, camaraderie, and kindness, primarily from /r/stopdrinking.

  3. Niche stuff, like ideas for local hiking and backpacking trips, propaganda posters, and kayaking info.

To find people with shared interest, to find niches.

And the community of the random thread r/chile

that( has been imported here into feddit.cl)

And the autism subs tbh.

Things to look at when im bored. I am wondering I should post things that I see on reddit and like back to lemmy or if lemmy content should be lemmy content.

The various subs that can help you get your life in order, in the way you chose. personalfinance and/or financialindependence, whatever diet sub to help you learn how to eat better and get recipes that fit the diet, exercise subs like weightlifting or some others. Things like that can have a huge impact not just from the community encouragement, but the knowledge that they include in the sidebar, etc.

The simplicity of the comments is why Reddit has been king. The separation lines between comments are too old school blog on here and I really don't it. The waterfall style of Reddit comments is an infinitely better mechanic

Hoping a few people into yugioh make the jump. They had their faults, but the yugioh subs were a good place to talk about the game and get news.

I've set up a community on here - please feel free to stop by and check it out!

Discussions for newly released movies is a big thing that I'll still likely go to Reddit for until it is fully established here. I prefer to read what others thought about them through sites like Reddit rather than normal reviews since i always read them after having seing the film and look to see if anyone else had different interpretations or revelations i didn't do i can get more out of the film retrospectively.

I’m a bit bummed no one from r/fcbayern has made it to the fediverse yet… I need my wild transfer speculations fix!

World news, national and local news, Linux and Linux gaming related information, memes.

I absolutely loved being interested in a new hobby, game, or activity, and searching for that activities subreddit and reading the stickies and top posts of all time. It's like viewing an entire community from a window and you pick up on things like their internal humor and group-personality traits. You also can learn so much on how to approach or even respect said activity as a novice. So much free, enthusiastic information!

Getting new ideas for some hobby's, like 3d printing, photography etc. Also helping people that are new to those when they have issues. Also memes and funny catvideos.

For me it was always about information. I like learning new things and having access to current events, facts, documentaries, feedback, insights as well as learning resources. Im completely lost here. I subscribed to communities, but I have no idea what else Im missing from other instances.

[-] deva@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Tv episode/movie discussion threads, sports game discussion threads, fitness subs where I could search for basically any question on
