Is there anything you’d like to talk about or share but haven’t found a place to do so? What communities (or “subreddits” for all Reddit refugees) would you like to see?

This could be a resource for anyone wanting to start a community and find out what people are looking for, and a place to request a community you just haven’t found yet.

My local subreddit, but it will sadly never happen, because the overwhelming majority of users there simply don’t care about whatever spez or reddit is doing - they didn’t even do the 48h blackout, just complete apathy. Oh well, I’ll miss it, but not enough to actually go back there, so it’s all good.

Well, time for you to create it and hope that a new generation of lemmy users will eventually find their place.

That’s not happening either - I would not be a moderator or leader of any community even if it was a paid position :) It’s fine though - I can definitely live without it, I’ll just need a bit of time to get over the addiction fully - I am surprised at how much I like this place, so it’s actually going much smoother than I expected.

None really, got all my crafts here already and my other account has all kinds of gamedev communities to follow. Now that Star Trek is here and a couple of people have set up Eurovision communities, not to mention UKCasual is here, I’m pretty sorted!

Just need more people to join in with the ones that exist, now.

Do you have any gamedev communities to recommend?

Sure! !gamedev@lemmy.blahaj.zone (Lemmy link) / (Kbin link) has become the most active general gamedev one although there are others, if you visit this one you’ll see there’s a pinned thread with links to all kinds of related communities you might like. Engine specific ones as well as other general gamedev ones and so on.

[Kinda random yapping] Hopefully some day the link stuff gets sorted >.<; Here on kbin the “local link” points at c/gamedev@lemmy.blahaj.zone, but kbin uses m/ instead of c/ so it doesn’t work. Switching to m/ is doable enough but it’ll be nice for that (and general inter-instance fussness) to be no longer necessary :-\

I tended to use Reddit for smaller niche communities, many of which I do not see here yet. For example Eldin Ring, Ghost of Tsushima, Hot Sauce, Gifrecipes, Rings of Power, PTCGL. It will be nice when these can be created and have enough people to make it interesting but it’s not there yet.

In this case it should be called l4l or k4k, depending whether they’re on Lemmy or Kbin.

I keep looking out for the lonely lemming subs but nothing yet. They probably need a particular population size (and mix) before they start working. Same for the random acts subs.

HobbyDrama. I wouldn’t have anything to contribute so I haven’t started it myself, but I really enjoyed reading the in depth writings about niche hobby blowouts.
