I’m going to miss AITA. Even if someone makes it a community, it will take a long time to populate.
/r/AskHistorians - ruthlessly and efficiently moderated, but every single post a fascinating read. I should msg Zukhov to see if he wants to move ship to /c/AskHistorians.
That would be amazing if the current AskHistorians team moved here. It’s legitimately one of the best run subs.
Effectively migrating entire subs is an excellent strategy
Honestly, I think the more reliable curated information will be what I miss the most. I almost always append a Google search with “Reddit” - because the information and format are so much more reliable than the bot populated garbage sites.
Also, niche porn subs. 🫡
I literally add “reddit” to the end of a search all the time…thought I was the only one
I think we all learned to do that eventually. It’s like losing an encyclopedia
Not a subreddit, exactly, but I’m going to miss /u/poem_for_your_sprog and /u/Schnoodle_Doodle_Do. They made browsing so much better - I loved unexpectedly coming across one of their poems.
I miss u/shittymorph but the legend will live forever even though he retired in 1998 when The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table."[2]
the watercolor one as well, so much great stuff
Really going to miss my local subreddit.
We had a weekly rant thread and it was funny just seeing neighbors talk smack or bitch about silly little things.
I’m going to miss many of them, I’m a real reddit junkie. But I’m leaving tonight and don’t expect to be back.
Most missed: Witches vs. Patriarchy. Can’t seem to find a lemmy equivalent.
Edit: my first comment!
Definitely r/BestOfRedditorUpdates
all of the weird, super-specific cute pages. illegallysmolcats, illegallysmoldogs, airplaneears, attackeyes, puppybellies, oneorangebraincell, stealthbombers, scrunge, peanutwhiskers, toebeans, whatswrongwithyourcat, crabcats, huskytantrums.
I… may have an addiction.
I mostly will miss being able to google something and adding “reddit” to my search to search for public opinion on day to day issues and problems.
r/StupidFood, I need my daily dose of stupid and disgusting food videos :(
I’m gonna miss none of them because they will all come here
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.
There are already six communities with AITA already. The largest is 1.6 years old and has close to 300 members. Just join up and grow it.
I just want to find a place where I can say “Taiwan is number one” and “Putin is a bitch”.
Putin is a big olde bitch.
Fitnesscirclejerk, my favorite assposting forum
I miss r/quilting and r/sewing. As a crafter, the knowledge I gain from these type of subs is invaluable
r/visiblemending 😔 the only kind of mending I know how to do, and I still had so much to learn!
