One of my most visited lately is for a reality TV show, Vanderpump Rules. Itβs not here, but I suspect the crossover between early adopters here on the fediverse and trashy reality TV shows is very low lol.

Not all of them. I might try setting up a fountain pen community some time soon!

Ah, that wasn't there last I checked! I'm so glad the Fediverse is growing so quickly!
How can I create a community? I am trying to on Lemmy.ml but I keep getting an error βMatch the requested formatβ
twobestfriendsplay has begun to spin up, so now all I need is my gacha shit and my TTRPG shit.
I'm gonna miss furry_irl tbh. I didnt post that much tbh, but I liked that community. Fortunately there is a furry instance here.
I think the subs I am going to miss the most are mostly gaming subreddits, I dint have high hopes they'll move. /r/bindingofisaac will be most missed and /r/196 for the hilarity. I am sort of surprised that the list is so small, I feel like reddit communities have been going down in quality faster than usual lately. I like this place and tildes, if it could grow a bit more so 100+ comment threads could happen daily that would be perfect.
Yeah, I was quite disappointed to see that most, if not all, subreddits I follow had already shut down on Reddit. I mean, there's r/learnjapanese, r/fitness, r/iwanttolearn, r/piracy, r/nootropics... I could go on and on. I'm actually considering creating a Lemmy community in place of r/chineselanguage, since I see nothing of the sort has been created yet here. However I'm quite hesitant, since I don't really have the time nor interest in moderating a community, so... maybe I'll just wait for someone else to create it instead?
I'm missing r/Succulents, r/elite Dangerous, r/bisexual and r/watercooling. And r/MTB too. I hope some or all of those come over. Not having r/Succulents is distressing because they are a font of good information on rare plants.
- Complaint about on foot missions
- Newbie stuck with no fuel left
- Ad for an exploration expedition
- More complaints
- Bizarre conspiracy theory about something Thargoid or other
- Even more complaints
- Screenshot of an Asp in front of something
There you go, that should tide you over on the Elite thing at least!
I just created !bicycles@lemmy.ca as a general-purpose, inclusive cycling community! Feel free to post any MTB-related stuff :)
Not really, and I have low hopes of that happening, tbh.
Most communities are very low-tech, so users might have a hard time adapting to the environment.
Like for example the default search for communities should be All due to the confusion of search results only popping up with internal instance communities. I worked it out noticing no @ but most newbies will get confused and see jangled messes of community and instance addresses.
Yep, I agree. Joined through an instance run by a friend, so we might be able to tweak it locally, but unless we suggest it as a feature in git and merge it into the main built, I don't see that coming as a default setting.
For the most part yes, I would say anything mainstream is generally made its way to lemmy, however some niche subs like r/hamradio r/gmrs and some gaming subreddits like r/fireemblem and r/finalfantasy seem to be missing. Honestly I'm surprised even 90+% of the communities I follow are on here, I'm quite hopeful that it'll continue to get better.
One has, but there are no posts yet I've created another, created a post and am waiting to see if others move over. I plan on giving up modship ASAP because I'm not built for that. Yet another has and there's a bit of activity.
I really want a csharp (C#) one. I know there is one but no one has posted there yet. XD And more game/Indie dev.
And something equivalent to the aww subreddit (does anyone know one?).
Not quite but slowly either finding people who have or else solving that issue myself. MirrorsEdgeAesthetics isn't working no matter what I try, but just about everything elseiI'm slowly getting started with here, at least for the SFW stuff anyway.
