I'm genuinely so excited to see some of the more focussed communities blossom on this platform as they have on Reddit over the years. Which are your favourites and which do you think could succeed here?

If you want to see a specific community that doesn't exist, then set it up and post some content! If you want the type of places to hang out that you had on Reddit, you need to create it, nurture it, and grow it. There's no guarantee that Lemmy will be the place to land during the Reddit exodus, but it is a place to land, and a damn fine one at that. Putting my money where my mouth is, if you ever want to talk about calculators head on over to !calculators@midwest.social

Any hint to how to?

I don't know what the rules are on lemmy.ml, but some instances let anybody create a new community. There's no guide or doc that I know of, but it's as easy as making a post is. I just looked for a calculator community and couldn't find one, so I made it. If lemmy.ml won't let you make a community, either ask the mods there to approve one, or sign up on an instance that isn't as locked down. You can even make your own instance and still federate with the rest of the Lemmy-sphere.
