What is a niche interest or hobby you'd personally like to see represented more on Lemmy
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.
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.
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).
There are very active communities on Reddit for magical/sacred plants and even some for selling/trading them. I mostly collect San Pedro cacti among a few others and would love an active community like that here.
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…
There is not much Lemmy communities for discussion specific/centered around specific entertainment media (video games, anime & manga, web videos, etc)
Back when I’m still on Reddit, I’m used to lurking around a lot of these kind of communities on that site. Community centered around video game franchise like The Legend of Zelda and Sonic the Hedgehog, content creators like Linus Tech Tips and Hololive, and even some niche topics like Windows 10 LTSC and Otonokizaka
Those kinds of subreddits simply doesn’t have any equivalent in Lemmy, and even if it did, it is far far more inactive compared to its Reddit counterpart. To me that is one of the biggest problem with Lemmy right now and kinda could be a reason why there is still many user who sticked into Reddit and does not 100% migrated to Lemmy.
I’m pretty sure the hololive community is active here.
It’s also a pretty self fulfilling prophecy but I get what you’re saying. Hopefully the new scaling sort gets more popular as instances upgrade to 0.19. I’ve seen so many more smaller communities since I’ve started browsing by that.
Even league of legends, a huge game worldwide, barely has a community here.
Yeah I do aware that there is a Lemmy alternative to the Hololive subreddit, but the amount of active users and content available there is still aren’t enough to consider it a viable replacement for its Reddit counterpart

Agreed completely. I still have to go back to Reddit regularly becuase its the only place for discussion for a lot of my interests. For example, War Thunder, despite being a massive game, only gets a post or two a month here (all recent ones by me) and zero activity beyond that. I can’t even go to the forum, because they ban anyone who criticizes the game or says anything they disagree with. That leaves me with just Reddit, so I’m stuck going back regularly.

Have tried posting about an alternative forum on Reddit, that allows third party apps? I’ve done that after messaging the mods in some communities, some of them were quite receptive
Fondling my balls, I feel like not enough people are willing to give it a try. It’s free, it feels good, and it’ll relieve stress, I don’t know why I’m in jail for offering a gift like this to the world.
I’ll give it a try. I lost my hands in a meat mincing accident when I was a baby. I have two high capacity hydraulic robotic clamps as replacements so I am quite interested to see if your method will relieve my ptsd
Hmm, thanks anyway but tbh I was thinking more of cars as-a-hobby than car-related news. I love looking at people’s projects, hearing wrenching and and driving stories, etc.
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
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.
