This goes out to all the homies that don’t have the time/energy to moderate, and to the ones that do that would like ideas (If there’s been posts about this already then I’m srry)
What I’m missing the most:
-
AmateurRoomPorn, FemaleLivingSpace, MaleLivingSpace and similars. Plenty of ideas on how to decorate my home, suggestions,…
-
OneOrangeBraincell, Flonkers, MurderMittens, ToeFeathers, PouchCatatoes and other ‘niche’ cat subreddits. I can survive with the already existing IllegallySmolCats and Cats, I guess.
-
GifRecipes, ShittyGifRecipes, ShittyFoodPorn. Ones for learning new stuff to cook, others… for learning what NOT to cook thankyouverymuch.
-
HistoryMemes
-
Tattoos
-
Submechanophobia
!shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca is one I saw pop up recently.
!gifrecipes@lemmy.world also.

Very niche, but I would love to see a (bullet) journaling community on here. it was one of my favourite places to go on reddit. Also miss the fantasy community, but as I understand it, there are a lot of new communities in beta related to favourite authors and such.
I’m a refugee from the other site, and I’m a trans guy. I’d love to see an equivalent to r/ftmover30 - it was such a good resource for those of us who are older, dealing with adult problems like jobs, marriages, parenting.
So many internet spaces for trans people skew younger - that’s not a bad thing, it’s just not always super helpful for people transitioning later in life, or who are just simply dealing with different problems that come from being in a different stage of life. It was really nice to have a niche where I could talk about stuff that the young 'uns just can’t relate to.
I’d like to find a good archery community. I think I want to pick it up as a hobby, but don’t know where to start.
Me too, though there’s no shortage of good info on forums (archery talk forums specifically has a “so you want to get started in archery” guide).
The best advice, though, is to find a local club and ask to go on a beginner course using their equipment … different regions have different trends, and there’s usually a reason!
Here are the subreddits I would miss the most:
- Am I the Asshole
- LegalAdvice
- Parenting / Daddit
- thingsmykidsaid
- whatisthisthing
…and all of the local/regional subreddits for cities / metro areas around the world.

-prisonhooch - fermenting things that really shouldnt have been fermented into alcohol. always a good laugh to see some ridiculous ideas.
-canned fish/seafood enthusiasts
-hot sauce and/or spicy condiments
A big one I’ll miss is the Diablo subreddit. It was filled with contentious assholes, but the content was typically good.
Definitely all the question-answer subreddits, like AskScience, AskScienceFiction (though for the love of god please call it AskFiction this time), NoStupidQuestions, TooAfraidToAsk, ChangeMyView (with the Delta bot), AskMeAnything.
AskReddit equivalent already exists: AskKbin@kbin.social.
AskScience
Miss that :(
I could just go there, see a seemingly stupid question and be amazed by the professionality and detail of the comment section. A bit like XKCD - what if? on endless mode.
A populated aquarium/fishkeeping community
r/hockey
r/gainit and r/gtaonline (I don’t play gta anymore, I just stayed for the big community)
I miss fantasy writers and magic building. I would even be willing to moderate them. But I lack any skills to contribute to them. Not to mention I’m worried that most people are not interested in move as writing subreddits struggle to get off ground.
Personally I’m just going to miss the oddly specific meme subreddits like r/breadstapledtotrees and r/suspiciousquotes
I’d like to see something similar to r/bigbangedmemes or r/blackholedmemes, these subs are about editing heavily a meme screenshot/image at the point to turn it into an un-understandable trippy image, at a point where it’s almost a form of art. They are still public on reddit right now so I don’t know if it’s a good idea to create an alternative here already.

Reddit’s Reddit. There’s no reason to worry about what they do or don’t have. If you want to make one, go for it!
