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.

    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]

    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!

    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.

    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/history heavily moderated and has actual historical experts answering questions and has a big library of already answered questions.

    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”.

    I’ll miss all my niche gaming subreddits. Path of exile, incremental games, and I even liked keeping an eye on the gacha gaming subreddit. So many more to mention like r/gamedeals, patientgamers, many more individual game subreddits.

    I miss r/quilting and r/sewing. As a crafter, the knowledge I gain from these type of subs is invaluable

    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 miss being able look up any niche thing I was into at the time and find an active community discussing it and making memes.
