Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Just a working list - feel free to add to it. I realize that some of these might already exist, and I just missed them. Here's what I've got so far:

  • Book suggestions
  • Obscure Media
  • New England
  • Massachusetts
  • separate communities for every other state too
  • Mildly interesting
  • Antiwork
  • Anti-Amazon
  • buy it for life

I feel like there's a lack of communities dedicated to specific games. Sure, I can see communities for Pokemon and Zelda right now, albeit on lemmy.ml

But somehow, we don't have any major Minecraft communities? I liked the subreddits for modded Minecraft and Hermitcraft. Apart from that, the Terraria sub had its moments as well.

There's !moddedminecraft@sopuli.xyz. It's not massive, but it's a start!

I'll miss all the "spooky" communities, they are what brought me to Reddit in the first place way (way, way...) back in the day. Nosleep, creepy, aliens, thetruthishere, etc. There's lots of them, of varying quality these days but I regularly enjoyed the discussions and theorizing over the years.

Shout out to unresolved mysteries, that was a long term favorite of mine. At its best it was a respectful and helpful community of true crime researchers working to bring attention to cases. I am truly fascinated in evaluations of cases of misadventure, as well.

I might miss the movie discussions most, though. I love nothing more than picking apart an interesting story and getting under the obvious themes. I would regularly go directly to the official movie discussion threads after watching something I enjoyed, then search posts about it as well. I hope to find others here with the same interest because I'm sure that is something that can continue in the fediverse.

I imagine that communities like that will be created here before long!

  • UX research (there is an empty 2yo uxdesign sub..)
  • Artisan videos
  • Is it bullshit
  • UK personal finance
  • /r/menslib, specifically because the mod had really thoughtful takes
  • OCPD (a bit different from OCD subs)

I was going to say buildapcsales, but it appears that someone created it in the last 24 hours.

I miss r/Coffee and r/TaylorSwift. Maybe I'll start them and moderate.

  • Motorcycles

  • AMD
  • Bad_Cop_No_Donut
  • ConcealedCarry
  • CZFirearms/Guns
  • PublicFreakout
  • CrazyFuckingVideos
  • WatchPeopleDie (yeah, I know, it's morbid. But having a NSFL Instance with communities for banned sub content would be great for lurking)

Both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world have moto communities.

[–] HiT3k@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is awesome, thank you.

[–] Mac@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

You're welcome. See you over there!

I have started an antiwork magazine, feel free to join! https://fedia.io/m/antiwork

[–] elleyena_rose@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

I'm still learning about the Fediverse (and probably need to search through the lemmy directory), but here are things I want to find:

  • Witchcraft/Occult
  • Hellenism
  • Embroidery/Cross Stitch
  • Coffee
  • Long Hair Community (I know they were more of a forum website, and they are still somewhat active, but having multiple places I can go would be nice).

r/Kitchenconfidential, r/CulinaryPlating, and r/dishwashers.

I miss my work peeps.

bodyweightfitness - it was a great community, but I don't know if it is a great fit here. The community was really supportive of people working on their form for movements and offered great critique without being mean, so that would fit, but it is very fitness focussed and I don't know if that is a good fit.

keto/carnivore/zerocarb/ketoscience - this was a set of communities all centered around the dissemination of information on very low carb eating, low enough to ensure ketosis rather than glucosis for energy. It is interesting to look at the resources they had and what sorts of problems you could solve by searching, but without that long term backlog of other people's problems it would be hard to start up again. Maybe also a single community rather than 4 or more, but I don't know.
