For example, I used to follow a lot of subreddits for individual YouTube content creators, however, Lemmy doesn’t really have the size or culture to support this currently.
Linux and Star Trek memes. I just don’t see them enough.
Hmm, you might like this one website – I think it was called Lemmy.
Would you like me to say “and my axe”?
Ancient coins. There’s a sub on Lemmy but it’s sadly unpopulated. I miss being able to interface a bit with other collectors, but fuck my ass if I have to go back to Reddit for that.
Not exactly niche but I’d like to see some active gardening and diy communities. The existing ones aren’t very active.
Maybe in springtime. which ones are you subbed to?
Hopefully now discussion blooms then
vinyl records. I miss r/vinyldeals, r/vinyl, and r/vinyljerk.
Funny enough, vinyldeals was one of the biggest pushes for me leaving reddit. Way too much anxiety checking and the exclusive releases just killed my wallet lol

I have a few!
- Vaporwave minidiscs
- Nail polish & nail art
- Skincare
- Fitness over 40
- Greyhounds
I’d settle for vaporwave at all!
Yeah definitely more musical genre related subs would be great. I loved /r/electronica and /r/dubstep before Reddit’s CEO made me wanna hurl and I stopped using their site.
Anything not tech/Linux related. It’s 90% of my feed.
Hobby machining, automotive, scca.
Maybe I need to think about hosting…
We got [email protected]
A hobby machinist community would be great. I’m a few months into the hobby and loving it.
More artsy stuff and more comics, I’ve only seen Loading Artist over here - if he’s the real one.
JRPGs. I live them, but all communities over here are mostly dead - only posting the occasional trailer.
Those were the only subreddits I actually used to frequent, now that I think about it.
Men’s rights, but not like the piss pitt that the Reddit one has, but one that focuses on real men’s issues, like how rampant prison rape is in male prisons, parental alienation, forced military service and such.
And before anyone says that “It is men who mostly commit prison rape”, well duh, that is obvious, but prison should be a rehabilitation tool, not a punitive one, and especially not a for-profit business like it currently is.
And add the fact that prisoners should be under the care of the government, and the fact that so much abuse, sexual and otherwise is ignored and not prevented is nothing but appalling.
How about a “human rights” community that covers all genders.
That is a way better idea, as long as there is no bashing on fence issues such as circumcision and the pink tax(And I don’t mean pink tax in the sense of feminine razors being more expensive while being functionality the same as men’s razors, I mean the absurd markup on feminine hygiene products, and in some places tampons being taxed as luxury items).
Not that I was into it that much, but I did love seeing pics of fungus on reddit once I found that place.
more linguistics
more geography
Where’s the experimental music community at?
Circuit Bending!!! Moreso, just broad “soldering” representation; places for unique soldering projects. Soldering hacks, solder jobs to brag about, beginners tips etc. Would be cool to have niches within the community too for different “soldering genres” like circuit bending
Beginners/basic programming for non-IT. There’s a lot of people that might want to do very simple things with arduino or other mini computers. Python, or even simple Linux tasks, that don’t want to start a whole “Programming lessons A-z” multi-stage class-format learning adventure.
Hmm… I bet the owners of r/roguelikedev could be convinced to run a Lemmy community, seems their style. I think they can be reached via discord. I might look into that, they were a good group, and helpful.
Lockpicking (along with the ranking system) would be great, plus it was the nicest, most friendly sub I’ve ever been in
