I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already.

Despite that, some of my hobby ones still aren't here. NFL exists, but it's the same as nothing so far. Soccer I couldn't find at first, maybe today it already does? Also, no sign of fantasy football.

I also followed a bunch of History subs, but looks like most people in Lemmy only care about science and technology.

Tell us, what is missing for you?

For r/soccer there’s !soccer@lemmy.ml although I’m hoping !football@lemmy.ml takes off instead.

It doesn’t look like there’s enough sports related content so something like !sports@beehaw.org might have more engagement.

r/diwhy was always one of my favorites :,) also miss r/Phoenix and r/Tempe for getting to find things to do near me. Maybe once that last wave off reddit hits some more Arizonans will catch the drift

It has, but it's quite empty yet. There are some posts, but I can seem to be able to reply sometimes. I use the "Jerboa" app and I get a "language not allowed" error. Anyone knows how to fix this?

Maybe some IT meme subs. I feel like those will be on here soon enough.

I also miss my local subs. I live in a midsized city and it's going to take quite a lot of time for it to migrate. I don't want to start it myself because the community is pretty toxic, but it has helpful information. What I'm saying is, I don't want to be a moderator to that community hah.

There's !programmerhumor@lemmy.ml to get us started at least

[–] doctorzeromd@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not yet, I made a couple for discussions about whiskey and steam remote play (playing steam games on your phone and stuff). I just realized I should post the massive guide I wrote for the latter in the new community!

I wish there was something like AskHistorians but I highly doubt I'll ever find something that good without a solid moderation team and very strict rules. Feels like it will either be Reddit (and fuck that to be honest) or nothing.

I still can go through rabbit holes on Wikipedia at least so there's that.

[–] thiccdiccnicc@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

I didn't think about how sad it will be to lose askhistorians 😞

[–] raresbears@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Even with solid moderation I feel like it'd be harder than for other subs just because you really need to have a decent population of people who really know what they're talking about for it to work

NFL exists, but it’s the same as nothing so far

Be the change!

Lemmy.ca has a hockey sub now.

I got very lucky, there is a whole instance dedicated to flight simulation and aviation now! lemmyfly.org if anyone is wondering.

My subreddit list on Reddit was quite long, so it'll be a while until I have a comparable list with silly communities.

I'm not mod material but if someone wants to create /c/juggling and /c/throwers I am in for a sub

[–] kristina@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 2 years ago

hexbear has... kinda migrated, lol. maybe one day they will join the feds πŸ€”

[–] p05@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Not fully. Some are but nothing that I've found like consolerrepair of any of the console hack community's. The main thing I liked from those was the resources you could find from the wikis or from old post.

Not quite but slowly either finding people who have or else solving that issue myself. MirrorsEdgeAesthetics isn't working no matter what I try, but just about everything elseiI'm slowly getting started with here, at least for the SFW stuff anyway.

r/pathofexile. I hope it gets going before the next league starts

[–] AceLucario@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (4 children)

I tried making a Shin Megami Tensei community because there wasn't one but I'm the only one in it still.

My beloved Manchester City (Football / Soccer team)are playing in the UEFA Champions league final tonight, I understand the mods may be a bit preoccupied yet hope the sub makes it over here. Right now though, I doubt there will be any moves yet for atleast a few days.
