For me, it's a few things.

  1. A way to burn time that doesn't feel like a digital sugar rush.

  2. Support, camaraderie, and kindness, primarily from /r/stopdrinking.

  3. Niche stuff, like ideas for local hiking and backpacking trips, propaganda posters, and kayaking info.

Getting new ideas for some hobby's, like 3d printing, photography etc. Also helping people that are new to those when they have issues. Also memes and funny catvideos.

All of these, pretty much like the pre-2015 Reddit.

Discussions for newly released movies is a big thing that I'll still likely go to Reddit for until it is fully established here. I prefer to read what others thought about them through sites like Reddit rather than normal reviews since i always read them after having seing the film and look to see if anyone else had different interpretations or revelations i didn't do i can get more out of the film retrospectively.

Hoping a few people into yugioh make the jump. They had their faults, but the yugioh subs were a good place to talk about the game and get news.

I've set up a community on here - please feel free to stop by and check it out!

For me it was always about information. I like learning new things and having access to current events, facts, documentaries, feedback, insights as well as learning resources. Im completely lost here. I subscribed to communities, but I have no idea what else Im missing from other instances.

The simplicity of the comments is why Reddit has been king. The separation lines between comments are too old school blog on here and I really don't it. The waterfall style of Reddit comments is an infinitely better mechanic

Tv episode/movie discussion threads, sports game discussion threads, fitness subs where I could search for basically any question on

[โ€“] madmonki@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

World news, national and local news, Linux and Linux gaming related information, memes.

I absolutely loved being interested in a new hobby, game, or activity, and searching for that activities subreddit and reading the stickies and top posts of all time. It's like viewing an entire community from a window and you pick up on things like their internal humor and group-personality traits. You also can learn so much on how to approach or even respect said activity as a novice. So much free, enthusiastic information!
