I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already.
Despite that, some of my hobby ones still aren’t here. NFL exists, but it’s the same as nothing so far. Soccer I couldn’t find at first, maybe today it already does? Also, no sign of fantasy football.
I also followed a bunch of History subs, but looks like most people in Lemmy only care about science and technology.
Tell us, what is missing for you?
Welcome everyone! Just as a PSA, here’s a cross instance community explorer: https://browse.feddit.de/
This is phenomenal, thank you for sharing!
I’m trying to be the change I want to see in the world https://lemmy.ml/c/hydrohomies
I’m missing witchesagainstthe patriarchy, mommit, and quilting. Everything else is here and I’m going to get more familiar this weekend and maybe start some groups
Hi all! I’m a Reddit refugee. This is my first comment here. I think I’m gonna lurk for a while and figure out how this works
I created mine at /c/guitars , I’m not sure if the reddit community at large will join though. I’m hesitant to push it anywhere, it feels like sleazy self promotion. I just wanna talk about my hobbies with other hobbyists, and leave all the corporate greed back at reddit.
[email protected]? neat!
yep, that’s the one :)
awesome!
Subscribed! Please, push it and be sleazy. I know I’ve seen others asking about a fretted community. Are you ok with banjos, bass, uke, etc visiting?
We welcome fretboards of all shapes and sizes
You can’t change comm names right? Cus I propose fretbros as a name.
Lol nice, no I don’t think you can change community names, but I chose what I did to directly mirror the subreddit it was modeled from.
Excellent! Thank you!
Yes but there’s only 7 subscribers and I’m the only post :(
Then again it’s a niche community about a fantasy series, I’m not surprised it doesn’t have much going on yet.

Not really. My most visited subs on reddit (fuck spez) were Rimworld, Zomboid, Hunt Showdown and various hobby/profession subs (graphic design, illustration, itap, photography). I’m fairly confident a UX/UI sub will pop up sooner rather than later considering how techie Lemmy’s userbase seems to be. Iirc there is a gaming related comm on beehaw, but the odds those three games will be talked about is rather slim.
Edit: also, Swoleacceptance. Recently got back to the gym due to mental health. Was a gym rat years ago but life got in the way.
They’re heeeeeeeere…
I’m really pleased by how many are starting anew on Lemmy. I giggled like a little kid when I saw HydroHomies was already up.
So I’m using Jerboa for android. A d I click through to the list and I see, say, atheism on one of the instances, but how to do I add that to Jerboa?
I’ve tried the search function for subscriptions too but it doesn’t come up. Am I missing something in how to sub to subs on other servers?
I have the same question, I saw somewhere to put the URL into the search and wait 10 seconds, but it still doesn’t show up :p
Better if you use the browser and use this format:
Search that (including the exclamation mark)
If you find out, please let us know
Jerboa just doesn’t seem to be very feature filled yet. Atm it’s all we really have and I’m greatful for it, but unfortunately many features are still missing outside of the standard website. Hopefully with the growing popularity things will be improved more and more.
LGBTQ+ support spaces. Lemmy has some, but not enough.
I can’t find any of my outdoor communities such as r/campingandhiking, r/backpacking, r/hikingcanada, r/wildernessbackpacking, r/nationalpark
Come to mander.xyz and make them. ;)
Was going to say, I joined meander.xyz as it seems to have a good mix of tech, science, and environment / nature stuff as well. When I scrolled through it was the instance that most resembled my subreddit list (except for the cats. Is there a cats instance?!)
I haven’t found one but there’s a few cats and aww like subs that have already popped up. Speaking of which, are they called subs here or lemmings or …? 😅
I think they’re called communities here but I LOVE your “lemmings” idea!
Same, looking for those, will try to make some too
Yes, actually. r/programmerhumor and r/anarchychess although on different instances are just like they were over at reddit.
Can you share the links to those? Thank you
Not sure about chess, but [email protected]
It feels like the mods on the subreddits don’t want to switch because that woul mean they might risk not being moderators anymore. Sad to see. Every sub should migrate. The only major thing that makes reddit unique is the awards and customizable avatars which no person over the age of 12 should care about.
Still looking for a r/writingprompts replacement
Even if only to read
Tell us, what is missing for you?
Niche anime communities. So far, it’s just Bocchi the Rock that has a separate community from the Anime community in lemmy.ml. I need my Re:Zero, KonoSuba, Kaguya-Sama, Classroom of the Elite, Call of the Night etc. I hope with more people coming in, it would been the flourishing of an entire anime ecosystem here in Reddit (probably one instance for anime solely?)
