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.
I digged down in what coins (they overlapped usually IIRC) had the highest probability of have being manipulated by jesus or the supposed apostles. Wasn’t that expensive if my memory is right to get a bunch with a high probability.
In that case you’ll be looking at Judean Prutahs or Leptons (the fabled “widow’s mite”), and denarii of Tiberius which are known as “tribute pennies”. Most of them are quite affordable if not incredibly impressive.
Hey thanks!
They have gone expensive as hell though :-D

Software Defined Radio, Ham Radio, RF Electronics, amateur satellites and Meshtastic.
The only community I am (more than) fully satisfied with here is Linux.
Oh, but also communities like askdentists, psoriasis, etc. Those were pretty helpful on Reddit.
Radio and RF Electronics would be 100% on-topic over at my community: https://lemmy.world/c/ece
Or I guess for you: !ece@lemmy.world
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !ece@lemmy.world
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
lmao fair enough. I am also spending less overall on records since I switched to lemmy.
Got any recommendations on a decently price-sensitive record player? We were gifted a cheap Crosby but I don’t really want to risk our nicer records on it.
AT-LP60 (bargain model) or AT-LP120 (decent midrange)
I 2nd the 60 model. Pair it with some half way decent speakers and it’s pretty good.
Thank you!
+1 on the LP60X the other guy recommended. It’s a great entry table that will last a long time
Thank you!
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
Hobby machining, automotive, scca.
Maybe I need to think about hosting…
I do miss justrolledintotheshop.
Yesss. I need my mechanic shitposting back I love those boys
A hobby machinist community would be great. I’m a few months into the hobby and loving it.
We got !machinist@sh.itjust.works
I have a few!
- Vaporwave minidiscs
- Nail polish & nail art
- Skincare
- Fitness over 40
- Greyhounds
!skincareaddiction@sh.itjust.works
I post there regularly, but it could use some more activity
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.
Vaporwave minidiscs
I love minidiscs!! I found my Sharp MD the other week and I wanna start collecting MDs.
I was thinking of collecting MD players too, Defo want one of the later NetMD players.
The only reason I check Reddit with any regularity anymore is for content local to where I live. There’s a few communities on the fediverse for my area, but with only minimal, sporadic activity.
I would love to see more activity around fostering animals, particularly cats. I started !fosteranimals and have participated over at !fosterkittens, but it seems there’s not many of us so far.
Edit: No clue why I can only get 1 of the 2 links to work correctly, but FosterAnimals is on kbin.social, and FosterKittens is on lemmy.world.

I wish there was somewhere to talk about Counter-Strike, particularly the e-sports scene.
Ironically, I want somewhere to talk about Counter-Strike excluding the e-sports scene. There is nowhere to learn smokes, share maps, or even find a team.
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.
Loading Artist and ExoComics are both legit here
Not that I was into it that much, but I did love seeing pics of fungus on reddit once I found that place.
SuperbOwl I’d going along nicely. The fungus one would probably do well with a dedicated kickstart.
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
(Original) drawings, paints, sketches made by the OP. Talk about paint, inks, papers, …work in progress stuff, problems & solutions.
Yes I loved /r/draw /r/digitalpainting and some others.
Cacti/succulents and wine (the fermented grape juice one, not the linux one). There are cactus and succulent communities in Lemmy, but they’re not very active, and wine ones are completely dead…
if anyone links me to one ill post stuff
Which one? For cacti there’s !cactus@sh.itjust.works, for succulents we have !succulents@midwest.social, and I couldn’t find any wine ones with more like 10 posts.
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.
