Just curious. I miss mainly language stuff, some video game communities (like RoN, KCD) and some local communities like for Arabs or Saudis (tbf those were always cesspits but I miss talking to other Arabs on Lemmy)
I’ll try to be the change I want to see. How about you?

Investment or stock communities.
Personally I’m boring and just invest in broad market indices, but I still enjoyed the discussions.
There is a Saudi community on Lemmy as it just popped up in my feed.
All arab related communities are modded by the same person, panarab and he’s a PTB, so… (Also an asshole in general so i’d steer clear)
I think of running a saudi/arab community here on lemmy but i think it may be too tiring, especially since i’m one of the more westernized arabs (despite not living in the west lol)
and he’s a PTB
He’s a public test build?
Power tripping bastard, !yepowertrippingbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com :)
Crazyfuckingvideos (especially since I was one of the first posters there), Reeftank, Bookcirclejerk, Playboicarti, Gardening, Photography
Yeah, they’re just not nearly as big.
Indeed, there’s only so much activity you can expect from 47k monthly active users
r/collapse
Full of the most pessimistic possible interpretation of climate change events and news possible.
It’s here too, but quite dead.
It’s here too, but quite dead.
One might even say that it… collapsed.
Lol
I miss there being a lot more Swedes around in the Swedish community. There’s >100k+ on Reddit, !sweden@lemmy.world has far less active users and a large chunk of the posts are from me.
I feel like it’s quite common for smaller countries to be honest. What is the stance of the subreddit mods about promoting it? I’ve had bad experiences in the past about trying to promote Lemmy on geodefault subs.
every single sub for media/franchises i’m a fan of and 3d software
There was a sub i think called r/daily3d that offered a daily prompt for users to create in 3d modeling software like blender. It became inactive years ago when the moderator who offered the prompts stepped down and set up a bot to come up with it instead. It was never huge, usually 10 entries a day at its peak, but that was a fun sub to check in on every so often. Some users were really good, and before the bot took over, the mod offered prompts that encouraged user interpretation and creativity.
I miss tankporn, there aren’t enough images of vehicles that can kill me in my Lemmy feed.
Tbf, most I use especially since I started ignoring news and politics… Chinese, Buddhism, art, yoga, poetry etc. Local city subreddit. Everything “humanities” is sparsely populated here even though I try my best to get the ball rolling. I still use reddit for some of this.
Thank you for your posts on !imaginary@reddthat.com !
We have !fedigrow@lemm.ee to discuss community growing and posting
One for my model of car. One for native plants in my area
Are !nativeplantgardening@mander.xyz or !nativeplantgardening@sh.itjust.works too broad?
Native plants doesn’t mean much if it just means native to the US. Theres a lot of weird stuff in CA, TX, and other regions found nowhere else, and a lot fewer plants that are found across regions. Ideally we’d have the users to have discussion about specifically CA-native plants but I’m not that passionate or knowledgeable enough to lead that effort.
The second one should probably closed
r/UFOs, r/hugenaturaltits, r/liberalgunowners
r/liberalgunowners
It’s not the same but maybe you might find !armedqweers@lemmy.blahaj.zone to your liking.
There are some great communities of obsessive hobbyists here like !Selfhosted@lemmy.world, and if you throw a brick in any direction you’ll hit two Linux nerds, but reddit has /r/sysadmin and other infosec groups that have large numbers of industry professionals - and no amount of enthusiasm can substitute for real-world experience. I miss the conversation from people who spend time writing system security plans, reading NIST documentation for guidance, thinking about remote management for networks that support thousands of end users, and who have to actually deal with the cybersecurity incidents that get reported in the news.
ebike/ebikes. energy. endlesswar, internationalrelations, aww.
And recently !ebike@lemm.ee
There’s my list the communities I miss and it’s not even a full list. Majority of them don’t exist on the threadiverse but there are some that do but the problem there is that pretty much everything is dead/stale.
Few dozen communities here.

Are you sure? It would probably work
I would be willing to do it if the community was on the instance with disabled downvotes otherwise nah.
Reddthat seems like the better fit. I didn’t knew this instance had downvotes disabled, cool. It’s not something that would fit on blahaj imo because it’s just shitposting unrelated to LGBT stuff.
That said I’m waiting for post scheduling feature before I commit to posting lots of stuff because the lemmy schedule site feels very unpleasant to use to me and I want something native. The lemmy v1 is still few months off so it will be a while. I’m also unsure if creating a new community would make sense because it’s a very niche and old meme so I would be the only one that posts things there from time to time. Someone would need to be willing to mod that as well and it wouldn’t be me. I don’t think it’s worth the trouble to set things up anew tbh. :x
Fair!
r/animation
I didn’t ask for recommendations. I just shared what I miss and lemmy in no way will replace them for me due to low traffic like I mentioned at the top of my comment. I know those communities exist. I’m working on indexing communities for !lemmydirectory@lemmy.dbzer0.com after all although it’s behind the scenes so the current form isn’t representative of what I know of.
Fair. I was pointing them out for people reading this.
Ah, would make sense. I will edit the comment later to include the communities you mentioned directly there then.
Couldn’t Lemmy create a ‘Replicate Reddit’ bot that copies new posts from specific communities on Reddit and recreates them under similar communities on Lemmy?
deleted by creator
Issues people have with this is
- the OP will never see comments
- it replicates everything, including the rage baiting stuff
Most posts are also at 0 comments with 0 upvotes, because what’s the point of interacting with a post for no reason?
lemmit.online does that already actually, if you’re interested in it
Noob question perhaps, but why is there a separate instance that does this instead of communities doing this one on one? For example, Lemmy/c/nba could auto-replicate new posts from Reddit/r/nba, no?
Most instances wouldn’t want a reddit bot using up their resources, so it would be best for them to have their own separate instance.
The issues remain.
Most of the posts on Reddit nowadays are low quality and/or rage baiting. Most of the users don’t want those replicated.
And if the questions are replicated, the person asking the question will never see the comments.
