Reddit refugees, has your favorite sub migrated already?

3 years ago by Romulus Roy to c/asklemmy

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?

Not really. It's incredibly frustrating and I've def lost some faith in humanity.

I thought /r/selfhosted would be ready to jump but everyone is like "but there's no users on lemmy" and "you'll split the community" and "we're going to go dark for two days - that will teach them!"

Consequently there's been no support for any single refuge.

Additionally people have set up several communities here with similar names in the past but now mods aren't responding so it's all a bit of a mess.

Idk which ones you've tried but I know there's !selfhosted@lemmy.world

As far as the "no single refuge" thing, I think that just comes with time as people decide "imma post in this one". Just pick one and go for it tbh.

If you search from your own instance, I think it only shows the subscribers from your own instance. So browsing from lemmy.ml there might be one subscriber but on lemmy.world there would be 77.

Actually I just noticed that when you search for say, "selfhosted" you'll only be shown results that people have already accessed from the instance you're on. So when you search for a community, if none are shown that doesn't mean none exist, just that no one on your instance have accessed them yet ?

Give it time, things are accelerating really quickly!

And for what it's worth, people who have turned their back on Reddit and are now here, probably aren't contributing much or at all to discussions on Reddit... So it'll seem to skew more to voices that aren't switching or haven't yet.

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 suspect that if Reddit got that bad, centralised alternatives such as the Hive would mop up a lot of the userbase. Yes they might not come over to Lemmy, but they could be enticed if Lemmy gets a bit of a split up of beginner/advanced levels of control.

Not really. My most visited subs on reddit (fuck spez) were Rimworld, Zomboid, Hunt Showdown and various hobby/profession subs (graphic design, illustration, itap, photography). I'm fairly confident a UX/UI sub will pop up sooner rather than later considering how techie Lemmy's userbase seems to be. Iirc there is a gaming related comm on beehaw, but the odds those three games will be talked about is rather slim.

Edit: also, Swoleacceptance. Recently got back to the gym due to mental health. Was a gym rat years ago but life got in the way.

I'd like to have a logo edit / sbubby sub.

Also, some niche ones that aren't there yet (AFAIK):

buildapc : PC building help

SavageGarden / carnivorousplants: subs aimed towards tending bug-eating plants

hardwaregore / firmwaregore / softwaregore / technope : subs based around faulty hardware and firmware, sometimes destroyed hardware, or badly designed software

cablefail : pictures of bad cable management and the chaos of cabling in general

itsaunixsystem : sub based on overly fake or wrong tech in the media

PBSOD : faulty kiosks and such displaying error messages in the open

spicypillows / spicybricks : sub based on the pictures of swollen batteries of any kind, with the "bricks" being UPS batteries

dankpods / battrees : Australian youtuber who yells at several portable music gadgets and headphones, the battrees one being pictures of off-brand batteries, mostly PKCell batteries, but can also be several others as well.

techsupportmacgyver : instances of crazy fixes that ended up working

termux : sub for the Termux project

ITRage (likely a replacement for iiiiiiitttttttttttt) : information technology-related rage posts

headphones : not sure if there's a sub there for headphones and IEM related stuff so I guess there could be one.

justrolledintotheshop : automotive repair shop employee's findings when working on vehicles

Another, much more niche music, streaming and TV-related:

kpop : for Korean music news and updates, discussion (with objective viewpoint)

kdrama : news and updates about Korean drama series, reviews, discussion

kdramarecommends : recommendations for Korean drama series

trigger (or maybe studiotrigger) : discussion and updates on anime made by Studio Trigger

webtoons : webtoon series discussion

animemusic : sharing music featured in anime series

This all I could get from the top of my head currently.

Most of my intrests are there and have some activity. Mainly the computerstuff and all. But others exist but aren't active. Take for example kpop, japanese music, horses, the elder scrolls. I wouldn't mind a community for western style RPGs as those are nearly the only games I play, with a few exeptions. General gaming ones seem too general for me, too little I care about.

I am trying to post here, but also don't want to spam a community with only my posts and make it looks like some kind of echo chamber. Feels like a delicate balance on the (nearly) inactive ones.

Nope, not yet, unfortunately. The majority of them either hasn't migrated here yet, or has a low amount of subscribers. Hopefully, more of them starts migrating here soon.

The ones I frequently browse that I doubt will migrate here are probably r/characterai, r/choiceofgames, and r/hostedgames.

I haven't seen r/gamedeals and r/livestreamfail here yet, but their amount of subscribers is pretty high compared to the other subreddit I've listed, so I think they'll probably migrate here soon.

But at least the country I live in has made a community here already. The amount of subscribers is still pretty low, but some people in there have been making a few posts and comments recently, so hopefully it gets more active soon.

If you're on a Lemmy instance then the best way to add it is to paste the full URL into search while logged in.

I hope /c/sweden (if it gets created) gets its own instance for Swedish-speaking communities instead of being stuck on a big instance. Until then, I'm staying on the Danish instance lmao.

r/LanguageLearning though, please leave that on Reddit... the only good thing to come out of there is r/languagelearningcirclejerk. Why would anyone join a general community for language learning instead of a community for the specific language they're learning, if not to speak English all the time and brag about how much of an epic polyglot they are?!

The art sharing subreddits like Imaginary Network, /r/awwnime, /r/patchuu, /r/moescape and similar. I want to start an instance that automatically crossposts from those subreddits to the Fediverse, and users here can also contribute with artwork that fits the community's theme. It'll probably fetch the posts through RSS to avoid the API limits, but who knows if Reddit might shut that down too. So I'll have to wait until this API situation stabilizes.

Looks like you're on Kbin?

In general you don't need to set up your own instance to create a Community /c/France, you can just create it on any existing instance that allows Community creation by users. I notice you're on beehaw who have decided to limit Community creation to Admins for now.

That said, many regional non-english speaking communities have made their own instances (feddit.de, feddit.dk, feddit.ir), maybe it has something to do with limiting language used?

I think you need to use the web client if it's the first time your instance accesses a community hosted on another instance. In which case, just go to the search bar and enter !bicycles@lemmy.ca, it should show up (you might have to click "next" once or twice in the search results)

I really like the poker subreddit. It's a really strange place, there's always some kind of shit post, tons of sarcasm.. people are dicks to eachother. And yet it can be a very helpful resource when the facade drops and people become genuinely helpful. Also lots of great clips from world poker events. I'm not sure Lemmy is the place for this tbh, there are many other established poker forums.

I think the subs I am going to miss the most are mostly gaming subreddits, I dint have high hopes they'll move. /r/bindingofisaac will be most missed and /r/196 for the hilarity. I am sort of surprised that the list is so small, I feel like reddit communities have been going down in quality faster than usual lately. I like this place and tildes, if it could grow a bit more so 100+ comment threads could happen daily that would be perfect.

I could go on and on. I'm actually considering creating a Lemmy community in place of r/chineselanguage, since I see nothing of the sort has been created yet here.
