I'd really like Entertainment to have subcommunities for Movies, TV, and Streaming.
Beehaw Support
Support and meta community for Beehaw. Ask your questions about the community, technical issues, and other such things here.
A brief FAQ for lurkers and new users can be found here.
Our September 2024 financial update is here.
For a refresher on our philosophy, see also What is Beehaw?, The spirit of the rules, and Beehaw is a Community
This community's icon was made by Aaron Schneider, under the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.
Comics, maybe? Like webcomics and comic strips.
Or U.S. comics ala Marvel & DC, etc - maybe just mix those in with anime/manga for now? Or mix them in with webcomics?
a witchcraft community would be amazing!! i haven’t yet found a good one across the federated internet and i have found the communities across various witchcraft niches are all very kind. ❤️
I really enjoyed the NoLawns group, and didn't see it suggested. Also, Travel was a great group to share pictures and travel tips, as well as ask questions.
I've seen a few suggestions of witchy stuff, paganism, or witches vs patriarchy. So maybe just a "New Age" community that deals with paganism, wiccan, astrology, crystals, etc.
Doesn't have to be called that exactly, but I think it would be better to group that rather than a plethora of smaller communities with less traffic?
Japan/Japanese culture without anime/manga clutter would be nice.

NFL/Fantasy Football! That's what will draw me back to reddit right now
Something like /r/Earthporn?
Lets choose a better name though, lol. I always cringe at the "-porn" subreddits.
LeopardsAteMyFace Atheism Anti-work
c/videos
Something for amateur music producers to share work in, get feedback, kudos, whatevs.
There were some communities on Reddit that I quickly gave up on because they were either dead, or full of jerks.
Migraines. Reddit's community was highly active, supportive, and informative. Perhaps too narrow, but an estimated 15% of people are affected which makes the target audience fairly broad. Never saw toxicity in that community so it would probably be an easy one to moderate. No current migraine community on the fediverse.

- Witchcraft and/or Paganism - Absolutely needs representation. Maybe to make it more general and allow for other religions as well it could be called "Spirituality"?
- Keto
- Stitchcraft/Needlecraft as a subboard of Creative.
Thank you for considering suggestions!
hahah world religions gonna love being lumped in with wichcraft
What about Digital Art as subcommunity for Creative like Writing?
For painting of all things, 3d and so on
I would like this too, I think it would be nice to have some art communities that are just for artists to help each other improve skills and some for showing off finished art to everybody. Unless I just haven't found it, I haven't seen a whole lot of art on Lemmy yet.
I'd like to see beer and cocktail focused communities. Sharing reviews, recipes etc. Maybe just a general drinking culture sub for now until we get big enough to support multiple communities.
On that note maybe a marijuana community for those of us where it's legal who might want to discuss growing, different strains, etc.
Also climate news/activism.
Given beehaw’s focus on building safe spaces and supportive communities, a community for people in addiction recovery might be a good addition.
Some of those subs in Reddit were / are pretty big, have helped a lot of people, and have saved a lot of lives.
Adding on a bit more. There is a particular need for safe secular recovery spaces. Spaces that will welcome people of all faiths and none.

Permaculture - might just go in Nature and Gardening, but does have a lot of unique related content.

The one I couldn't find mentioned here would be /c/digitalminimalism. Here we could share tips and experiences on reducing screen time, using dumbphones, exploring minimal apps, and all things related to simplifying our digital lives.
I'd love one for Crafting, but understand if you feel this is too under "creative" to qualify.
I feel like the creative umbrella covers so much that isn't necessarily what people are making and I'd love to see everyone's personal crafts: knitting, crochet, embroidery, cross stitch, 3D origami, sewing projects in one place.
Here's one I just ran into - If I make a community on another instance and want to share it here, how to I make sure the link takes people to that community? I've run into this, but another user pointed out that nothing shows until the users instance already knows about the community (link example: https://beehaw.org/c/support, and comparison example: https://reddthat.com/c/songcovers). The first link should send people here, while the second probably results in a 404 for most people atm.
