One can't have enough on diy and repair/restoration

[-] Cherry@piefed.social 12 points 2 months ago

I’d also like to see more hobby based ones. Agree on the diy/gardening/recycling and non waste.

I hate Reddit but they were always good for outsider tech stuff like the specific game (e.g sims) community or stremio etc when you just need an answer or a bit of support fixing or configuring something.

[-] furrowsofar@beehaw.org 1 points 2 months ago

Lemmy has diy and gardening. I know Beehaw has these for example.

Reddit had great HVAC and Refrigeration subs that I miss. The HVAC com here is basically completely inactive. Honestly there are so few tradies on lemmy, it would be nice to just see all the tradie coms consolidated into one so there is some activity.

I completely agree. I'm not even in the industry but it's a fun hobby topic for me. I even got an EPA 608 universal license for fun.

Not sure these are communities that I would like to see on Lemmy necessarily, but they are stuff that I have no space to discuss here:

  • political organization design
  • fermentation
  • fine dining and cooking
  • videogames design theory and videogames critique

More skincare

[-] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

Specific story related ones. Eg His Dark Materials, Avatar The Last Airbender, Cosmere

[-] Mugmoor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

I actually started a Cosmere community but nobody ever used it

Worldbuilding. There are communities for it but they're not very active.

[-] Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago

There's some specific ones I miss from Reddit. Stuff for sites like Letterboxd, Serializd, and Backloggd. One for cartoons would be nice (I searched, but the only thing I found here was one for comics). Not sure if there's a community here that would be good to ask for recommendations in for like TV shows and videogames.

almost collected the whole set of my diagnoses with autism and bipolar communties... now just need a borderline personality disorder one

[-] Canonical_Warlock@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Pretty sure there is a bpd community.

Edit: There are two but one hasn't been active in more than a year. This one is the most active. https://lemmy.world/c/bpd

I would kill for a lemmy alternative to /r/AskHistorians, but it requires a very dedicated moderation team, and I don't know that the user base here is large enough to support it.

[-] Taalnazi@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Hmm.. I've been active on there, and am familiar with the environment. I should try it out.

Non-Christian centric 'Believers United' kinda community, although I admittedly can't even conceive it in either ethos nor content. Maybe someone smarter than me can make it happen? 🥺

[-] 4shtonButcher@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 months ago

I'd love to see more cycling related stuff. Like xbiking, fixed gear, ...

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 4 points 2 months ago

I think we need less while traffic is low. Like a hobbies group instead of a lot of smart communities that are more specific.

[-] the_abecedarian@piefed.social 4 points 2 months ago

Clothing & style

[-] furrowsofar@beehaw.org 4 points 2 months ago

My experience is financial, tax, medical, and legal where I have to go elsewhere.

[-] FuzzChef@feddit.org 3 points 2 months ago

Lemmy can never have enough dead communities! Also we should have clones on each instance for good measure.

A r/LetGirlsHaveFun and an r/LetBoysBeManipulated 🥺
