For example, I used to follow a lot of subreddits for individual YouTube content creators, however, Lemmy doesn’t really have the size or culture to support this currently.
Linux and Star Trek memes. I just don’t see them enough.
Hmm, you might like this one website – I think it was called Lemmy.
Would you like me to say “and my axe”?
Ancient coins. There’s a sub on Lemmy but it’s sadly unpopulated. I miss being able to interface a bit with other collectors, but fuck my ass if I have to go back to Reddit for that.
Not exactly niche but I’d like to see some active gardening and diy communities. The existing ones aren’t very active.
Maybe in springtime. which ones are you subbed to?
Hopefully now discussion blooms then
vinyl records. I miss r/vinyldeals, r/vinyl, and r/vinyljerk.
Funny enough, vinyldeals was one of the biggest pushes for me leaving reddit. Way too much anxiety checking and the exclusive releases just killed my wallet lol

Got any recommendations on a decently price-sensitive record player? We were gifted a cheap Crosby but I don’t really want to risk our nicer records on it.
+1 on the LP60X the other guy recommended. It’s a great entry table that will last a long time
Thank you!

I 2nd the 60 model. Pair it with some half way decent speakers and it’s pretty good.
Thank you!
Anything not tech/Linux related. It’s 90% of my feed.
Hobby machining, automotive, scca.
Maybe I need to think about hosting…
We got !machinist@sh.itjust.works
A hobby machinist community would be great. I’m a few months into the hobby and loving it.
Men’s rights, but not like the piss pitt that the Reddit one has, but one that focuses on real men’s issues, like how rampant prison rape is in male prisons, parental alienation, forced military service and such.
And before anyone says that “It is men who mostly commit prison rape”, well duh, that is obvious, but prison should be a rehabilitation tool, not a punitive one, and especially not a for-profit business like it currently is.
And add the fact that prisoners should be under the care of the government, and the fact that so much abuse, sexual and otherwise is ignored and not prevented is nothing but appalling.
How about a “human rights” community that covers all genders.
That is a way better idea, as long as there is no bashing on fence issues such as circumcision and the pink tax(And I don’t mean pink tax in the sense of feminine razors being more expensive while being functionality the same as men’s razors, I mean the absurd markup on feminine hygiene products, and in some places tampons being taxed as luxury items).
more linguistics
more geography
The only reason I check Reddit with any regularity anymore is for content local to where I live. There’s a few communities on the fediverse for my area, but with only minimal, sporadic activity.
I would love to see more activity around fostering animals, particularly cats. I started !fosteranimals and have participated over at !fosterkittens, but it seems there’s not many of us so far.
Edit: No clue why I can only get 1 of the 2 links to work correctly, but FosterAnimals is on kbin.social, and FosterKittens is on lemmy.world.
Not that I was into it that much, but I did love seeing pics of fungus on reddit once I found that place.
SuperbOwl I’d going along nicely. The fungus one would probably do well with a dedicated kickstart.
Where’s the experimental music community at?
Beginners/basic programming for non-IT. There’s a lot of people that might want to do very simple things with arduino or other mini computers. Python, or even simple Linux tasks, that don’t want to start a whole “Programming lessons A-z” multi-stage class-format learning adventure.
I wish we had a super active watch exchange like reddit.
I wish there was somewhere to talk about Counter-Strike, particularly the e-sports scene.
Ironically, I want somewhere to talk about Counter-Strike excluding the e-sports scene. There is nowhere to learn smokes, share maps, or even find a team.
Random educational posts, like stuff that is actually useful. Like physics lessons.
