I’m genuinely so excited to see some of the more focussed communities blossom on this platform as they have on Reddit over the years. Which are your favourites and which do you think could succeed here?

Some music subs I like to peruse like r/Headphones, HeadphoneAdvice, BudgetAudiophile, Vinyl etc. If anyone has some alts to suggest, let me know!
Yep +1 for subs like /r/vinyl, /r/audiophile and /r/budgetaudiophile
If you want to see a specific community that doesn’t exist, then set it up and post some content! If you want the type of places to hang out that you had on Reddit, you need to create it, nurture it, and grow it. There’s no guarantee that Lemmy will be the place to land during the Reddit exodus, but it is a place to land, and a damn fine one at that. Putting my money where my mouth is, if you ever want to talk about calculators head on over to !calculators@midwest.social
I created and mod two subs on reddit, and I’d love to see them make their way over here, but I’ve had a child since creating those subs, and I just don’t think I have the time to do it anymore, sadly. Both subs seem on-board with the blackout on the 12th though, so maybe some of their members will find their way here. Maybe I’ll even point them here with a sticky on the 12th…
Definitely do a sticky! I’d be doing that for sure if I had your mod powers 😊
There are some subs that I’d rather see dead, and some that are just amazing, just based on their moderation and communities. r/fantasy is a shining beacon of light in an otherwise dark world, and with it a lot of the sister communities like WoT, Stormlight_archive and similar. They all have a positive feel, including and fair with just enough moderation without becoming heavy handed.
So in a sense it’s not so much the content, but rather the community itself that I’d love to see persisting beyond reddit.
games, mechanicalkeyboards, fountainpens, boardgames, music, indiemusic, audio, audiophile, headphones, …
so many!
edit: photography (how’d I forget that one?)
I’d like to see more fluffy friends! /r/rabbit, /r/furby
more animal pic subs
r/PCMasterRace r/GameDeals r/Fitness r/BuildAPC
Subs that have good guides and community info
r/piano r/Ukraine r/linux r/linuxphones r/philosophy r/geopolitics
Linux already exists, there’s !linux@lemmy.ml
Linux is pretty well represented so far versus most other topics
At the very least Linux and Linux phones are a thing here, I’d love to see them take off though
Imo those would be a lot easier than other subs anyway, considering Linux users tend to prefer open source solutions as a general rule
I’m going by the hobbyist subreddits, but I think mechanical keyboards, headphones, cars, and pens might be popular here, I’m not too sure if all of these communities currently exist on Lemmy
I support anything creative, unfortunately I’m not seeing a lot of that yet. I build models, dioramas, scratch build buildings, etc.
I was tempted to start a general making community where all disciplines of making are supported, but as far as I can see on the app that isn’t an option.
Cat communities are definitely a rabbit hole that is fun to go down on Reddit. Sport ones like r/NBA and r/Formula1 are some of my most used subreddits.
Here are the ones I’d most like to see:
- AskScience
- AskWomenOver30
- auntienetwork
- CozyPlaces
- crowbro
- EarthPorn
- FinancialIndependence
- fitness30plus
- GenX
- greyhounds and longboyes
- Guitar, JustinGuitar, LearnGuitar, and guitarporn
- hyenas
- menopause
- oldhagfashion
- personalfinance
- PetiteFashionAdvice
- Philadelphia
- rance
- retrofuturism
- RStudio
- ShitAmericansSay
- SimpleLiving
- space
- tattoos
- TeenMomOGandTeenMom2 because I love my stupid guilty pleasure trash TV lol
- TheGirlSurvivalGuide
- xxfitness
- And every single animal subreddit
Happy to report that r/menopause has moved to c/menopause@lemmy.world
I’d be keen for RStudio!
Yes, definitely personalfinance!
Both are a bit new and I still need moderators given the larger scale, but c/EarthPorn is now here, as is c/personalfinance
I know we’re talking about moving away from Reddit but I don’t see this on your list and it sounds like it might be a match for your interests --have you taken a look at /r/badwomensanatomy?
I’m on fucker with bad sense of humor (and transbian tendencies) so I frequent these on Reddit (and thus would be nice to have them here) r/196 r/traaa r/GaySoundsShitposts r/AnarchyChess r/actuallesbians
Throw in some anarchist communities as a bonus.
I would like to see r/simracing/
