Definitely whatisthisthing. There was a truly specialized group of finders there who're unlikely to make the move.

Emulation-related subreddits, for one.

I'm going to miss all the curly hair subs, it's a niche topic but something I feel like I know a lot about. I really wanted a text based of the main sub though, apparently I found r/curlyhaircare is like that. Going to not go on reddit though as much as possible.

Indie game communities, I just love looking at niche memes you only understand if you have played those games, and don't let me get started on the amazing art people put in there. There are some talented and passionate people out there, I hope eventually some hop over here.

r/spacedicks

Bikini bottom Twitter, games, steamdeck, dank memes.

These were my go to on Reddit.

r/Ilguns I need that to keep up with the gun law changes in illinois and the myriad of court cases going on.

And the r/ukraine and r/ukraine conflict was where i was getting news of the war.

I found a few ukraine news here, but it will take time to get it really going.

I miss r/neography. It was full of interesting conscripts by so many talented people. The hardest part about leaving Reddit was the loss of these niche communities that can’t be easily replaced over here. I also miss my country’s subreddit, it was nice place with interesting people and entertaining posts. I tried to make a replacement on Kbin but it’s just 8 people and I’m the only one posting. But this is only the beginning, the fediverse will only grow from here and we’ll start seeing these smaller communities appear.

r/knots

A huge chunk of anime subreddits, some nsfw subs, mealprepsunday and 1500isplenty, suggestmeabook, antimeme, copypasta, coolguides, collapse support, and my city's subreddit (I get to know more about my city, since my residence is far away from the main center of activity). And those small communities for singleplayer rpg mobile games I found interesting. I know they're never going back, most people won't even bother with mobile as a platform for games anyway...

r/crochet and r/lotrmems the most!

I'm gonna miss r/Art that's for sure! I loved how ppl gave different techniques a twist. It gave me hope! Most websites circlejerk around portraits and anime. Also r/depression. I use to reply post when I think I could say something helpful. Today someone committed to hospital and I'm afraid she won't be able to reach us back, ask for help, ask for someone to listen her. There's lots of niche hobbies too. I recently joined 3 and I was thrilled with these communities: r/falloutnewvegas and their witty crossovers, r/Tau40K had some cool painters and, oh boy, r/MechanicalKeyboards.

Polandball (the mods have said they don't support the protest)

Also tales from tech support

I'm going to miss a lot of the hobby subs like r/Unclebens and r/datahoarder but I'm excited to see how they grow here

The countless specific cat subreddits. The Gundam and gunpla communities. These can pop back up over here but it will take time for things to feel the same.

all the kink subreddits. not the ones that were just fap material cuz you can find that anywhere, but it was great seeing people talk earnestly about what makes kinks click for them and what it is they love about them

The very specific animal subreddits like blurrypicturesofdogs or catsinwaterpackages. Always fun to find new ones or suddenly see something pop up from one of them again.
