r/liveaudio r/mixingandmastering r/bitwig r/ableton r/ethereum

all of the Linux subreddits I browse + r/selfhosted, r/homelab, r/datahoarder.

all of these seem like easy fits for the fediverse.

Oh shit, am I a niche communities redditor already feeling anxious about losing all my anonymous internet peeps.

r/vxjunkies - Although that sub is most fun when randos stumble onto it and get confused. Which might not work as well in Federation world.

r/worldbuilding, r/loremasters

r/TolkeinFans. Discussing the legendarium on a scholarly level.

r/nsfwworldbuilding (which is a great place for thoughtful, mature, intellectual conversations about really creative ideas like quantum pregnancy and all male Orc societies ... and THEN pictures of nude bee women leaking honey from their boobs).

r/magicthecirclejerking, r/linuxcirclejerk, r/whowouldcirclejerk - these subs are my go to "I need to laugh" subs.

r/AskHistorians. What can replace this awesomeness... like ever?

r/ShermanPosting. Make this angry leftist feel like a burning patriot.

r/LateStageCapitalism. I need my angry leftist anticap memes.

r/StableDiffusion

r/Swahili? It's a beautiful language.

r/ImaginaryDerelicts... Here is a hauntingly beautiful rabbit hole for you to fall down.

r/PrintSF... it's literally how I find new books to rea...listen to. I consume audiobooks at a terrifying rate.

r/Podcasts because see above.

r/Qubes. I like my linux like I like my lovers, paranoid and with DID.

r/HomeNetworking

r/AskNetSec and r/OpSec

r/FifthWorldProblems and it's multiverse of affiliates, including r/MadMudMen and r/EnglightenedBirdMen

r/Daddit. I posted my "Here we are at a playground for the first time" pictures 12 years ago... I was looking forward to reposting those alongside the graduation pictures in 4 years.

r/WitchesVsPatriarchy. Yes, I'm a cishet white man, fuck the patriarchy and fuck toxic masculinity.

r/ChaoticGood. This sub makes me happy.

Is there seriously no r/WhoWoulWin equivalent? That boggles me.

We also REALLY need something like r/findareddit, if there isn't such a thing yet.

Non ironically, r/fossdroid would easily find a way into the fediverse

[-] Satiric_Weasel@beehaw.org 14 points 1 year ago

This seems way too unlikely to happen, but r/askhistorians. It's an exceptionally well moderated (if a bit overzealous) community that allows for both the average person to ask seemingly impossible, very specific questions as well as academics to express their knowledge and passion for those very same super specific topics they find fascinating; but have difficulty finding an audience to listen to them in their day to day lives.

r/buttcoin, every time I feel bad about myself I like reading about crypto fails to remind myself that I could have made even worse decisions.
r/noncredibledefense, makes the horror of the war not far from me a bit more bearable

[-] WandererLagomorph799@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Actually a few, but to list some

~~r/PublicDomain~~

r/MirrorsEdgeAesthetics

~~r/MovieSuggestions~~

~~r/LostMedia~~

~~rMediumReadings~~

~~r/RockinTheClassics~~

~~r/REgames ~~

r/CarHacking could also be good

Maybe~~ r/iwatchedanoldmovie ~~ Some game specifics sub's like r/MetalGearSolid, r/MetalSlug and r/HalfLife, r/moddergearsolid is a particularly obscure one.

Most of the console modding subs like r/360hacks, r/WiiUHacks which is going dark, r/PS3Homebrew and so on.

From my own feed that's about it, with the exception of some piracy ones like rCemuPiracy r/LinuxCrackSupport and r/SteamDeckPirates, among others. And a couple in particular that push a bit closer to the work unsafe side, so those wouldn't be here.

A couple of my hobbies that I've seen barely getting started here... photography and mycology. There's a lot to explore in both without getting wrapped up in religion or politics.

[-] alex@agora.nop.chat 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

https://mander.xyz/c/mycology

mander.xyz is an instance with a bunch of science based communities, and they have a mycology one.

r/HobbyDrama or a more hobby oriented history community. Also r/AskHistorians or similar, although that one will take more effort and setting up than simply making the community. I personally use Reddit to see a couple memes and then read both of the subs I mentioned. I like seeing people who are passionate about a thing talk about the history of that thing.

r/ultralight, r/myog and r/wildernessbackpacking

Please can we have a "BuyNothing" or "Freecycle" Comunity? One for each city/region/area would be better but If needed we could have just one where post titles contain the location (SacramentoCA) before anything else. Then sorting / Searching would weed out the unwanted due to distance items.

[-] abraxas@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

A couple, I think. WoTshow is one I really liked. And exatheist is a tiny sub where a bunch of people who were once atheists of all different religions talk religious philosophy.

It'd be great to have an actual place that isn't just Christians screaming that LGTBQ+ people are of the devil and need to burn, and at the same time not have edgelord atheists decrying that they have figured out everything and are smarter than everyone else

[-] abraxas@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Bingo. That's what r/exatheist is for me. Both extremes usually get talked down by the mods who tend to be fairly even-keel. Slightly undermoderated (both sides get away with just enough to not feel like anyone is getting stifled... as long as they don't go full-insult)

The other sub I like (but only lurk) is radicalchristian. I'm not Christian, but I love the way they look at the world and their religion.

I've seen a few people mention fighting games on here (e.g. Street Fighter). I'd be interested in that. The number of gameplay clips people would be sharing make me think it ought to be its own instance, though.

Also:

  • pens, fountain pens
  • mechanical keyboards
  • watches

Some communities have been created for those, but don't seem to have gained much popularity.

There are several groups on reddit that I have enjoyed, and am going to really miss unless I find some fediverse versions. It's the agony columns, all the ones where people ask for advice. Like r/AITA, and r/RomanticAdvice. There are so many of them.

What are some similar ones in this platform?

[-] cecirdr@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago

Most of these are on Reddit, but there may be a few that I thought could be specific, but not as niche as some of the ones on reddit. (like no community just for one game)

Van conversion/van life

Birding

Camping and hiking

AmITheAsshole

Each state in the US

Longevity

Kindlescribe/e-ink

RestlessLeg (or a chronic condition community)

Woodworking (bigger builds)

Carving (smaller builds, not furniture or big stuff)

Nutrition

NextFuckingLevel

JRPG

Turn-Based RPGs

Action/Adventure Games
