What is a sub/community that you wish existed (actively) on Lemmy?
Maybe there are others like you and we can actually get it running, or maybe to already exists but you just don’t know!
Without a doubt, it’s Queens of League. It’s an unhinged, thirsty gay mob shitposting about League of Legends.
Communities for news, papers, and general conversation around humanities and social sciences. Communities for underground music (e.g., goth music).
Parent/Trying for pregnancy/pregnancy.
I found the pregnancy conversations on Reddit (while I was on Reddit is fun) to be much less toxic than on those discussion forums on pregnancy apps.
Model railroading. Even on Reddit those subs weren’t super active, but they at least existed.
Magic the Gathering. There’s actually 3 here already, but somehow none of them really scratch the itch to just talk about deckbuilding. And again, the 3 that are here are fairly quiet. Just doesn’t seem to be the critical mass needed.
DankChristianMemes. Was just fantastic. Perhaps the best ‘neutral’ ground I ever saw for Christians & Atheists to laugh at themselves & each other.
R/raisedbynarcissist for sure.
The small niche communities are the ones I’ll probably never see again, like /r/reverseanimalrescue /r/TheNightFeeling /r/darknetplan
Dad for a minute and internet parents! They were my favourite
modernquilts / modernquilting, I used to look in that R and ppl shared progress pictures and finished modern quilts. Was a great source of inspiration. #modernquilts on fedi/pixelfed is quite empty unfortunately
I miss national and regional meme communities such as 2visegrad4u. Cultural and historical context makes the memes flow much better.
I wouldn’t mind some of the Random Acts to come over and be more active. Even though I never used it, I always thought the idea of the Random Acts of Pizza was a grand idea for those who are in need.
Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game
There’s !maliciouscompliance@lemmy.world, but it’s been dead for a while. I kinda miss reading those stories about assholes getting what they asked for.
Another that was fun reading occasionally was scambait, where people would fuck with scammers to waste as much of their time as possible. I don’t know if there’s anything like that on Lemmy.
More women-oriented communities would be great. Skincare, makeup, women’s fitness, female health, nail polish, aging. I’d love that.
Yes! Or fiber/needle arts! Im struggling to quit reddit because theres like 6 crochet posts over here T_T
Agree! I’d love to see more discussion around female health, not necessarily constructive but just bants about the ‘gross’ stuff, memes and complaints and stuff. The issue is that I’m a comment contributor more than a poster, as much as I try. So as much as I’d like to Be The Change, it really has to come from a lot of us posting and interacting.
A nail one would be great. Maybe we can make one.
I want lostmedia and unsolvermysteries communities to exist and be more active.
Ah I’d love for unresolvedmysteries to exist in an active form!
I’m very new so I haven’t explored much yet, but I wish there were more subcomminities of the communities, like for example on Reddit there’s subreddits for metal, but also subreddits for specific artists within that.
Or how there’s all the gaming communities but not many sub communities for specific games outside of maybe some of the larger games/game series.
I guess just more niche or deeper within a specific topic communities I’d say. But there may just not be enough people to go super specific with communities yet. Or I haven’t found them yet.
