TipOfMyJoystick
I loved helping people find games they couldn't remember the names of.
Oh like tip of my tongue right ? That's a cool community I like that
A lot of the communities I miss from Reddit exist here already, but they are mostly dead. Daddit; parenting; communities for my favorite sports teams; the community for my current city….
The news, general discussion, and memes are all here. But the really niche stuff that I used to enjoy discussing with strangers are all gone.
I ended up thinking !parenting@lemmy.world is dead because people are indeed parenting
True. I guess I enjoy giving/getting advice. Parenting is hard and, as they say, “it takes a village”!
Yup I feel ur frustration I want more non political things
!leagueoflegends@lemmy.world - a few of us are there, trying.
i kinda miss some of the chaos of the subs with rabid, unpredictable and paranoid users... like wallstreet bets.. not so much to participate but for entertainment itself
Start one here, it literally can't go tits up.
Just noticed there is !wallstreetbets@lemmy.world
'Saved you a click'. There is a community here, but it seems abandoned.
Obligatory be the change you want to see. I post regularly to a few communities that don't get many posts trying to keep them alive
Oh shit is there an abandoned one? I thought about it because I do miss SYAC. But if I do it, it'll mean I have to start clicking on clickbait headlines...
Have you thought about taking over ? What's the community about
SavedYouAClick is a subreddit where users post news articles that have clickbait headlines, but will edit the title to include what the clickbait actually is, to "save you a click" by getting the gist of the headline without needing to read the article. Usually reserved for articles that either have an egregiously misleading headline, or are multi-page articles designed to maximize ad impressions on the reader. So post titles may be something like "New law may impact Chicago drivers soon | No new law, 'left on red' is still illegal".
AITA/AmITheAsshole
Really interesting to get varying approaches but often consensus on most relationship issues, even if they are fictional
I miss that one a lot
Like I said before tho, I don't see why we can't just Prefix/preface the titles of AskLemmy questions with the acronym until it gets more established here.
AITH: for suggesting to use subreddit and community prefixes for AskLemmy questions?
Like that kinda
AITA if I recommended that a friend use Windows for their computer?
Yes and no. Some people need to be spied on for all our sake(s)
Yes
Precisely
I miss the old Reddit femdomcommunity. I also just miss a lot of women oriented communities
Yea I feel that
Like I love it here, but women focused communities are so important I run one irl
All of them.
There were/are some really good Asian and Asian-American communities on Reddit that didn't follow typical discourse. IYKYK.
Some of those groups are replicated on Lemmy, but are completely empty of content.
Until recently, TikTok was filling that role for me, but it seems it is starting to get more "appropriate" for American audiences as I think they are finally playing the game. Lots of "Jesus" and "white guy with microphone" popping up on my feed there now. The same thing happened to Youtube about 15 years ago so there's nothing new under the sun.
Video and microblogging also. Forums aren't the norm or in demand social media
I'm kinda dying without an active Fallout community. I'm currently extremely addicted to 76 and I'm banned from Reddit. I miss having conversations about it and trading on r/market76 😭
Fuck it make another reddit account dude, but do not argue/debate/give opinions on anything you can't if you want to keep an account there.
Do that, and don't post on there either. It makes you a target. But if you try again and are very very deliberately careful you'll be ok
Only thing that sucks about that is you have to make peace with the fact that you can't really be that social and have 'fun' on reddit anymore.
It sucks I know. But unfortunately reddit is still a useful tool. So it makes sense keeping an account there that you use for searching and are careful.
Make that community on our instance hilariouschaos.com my suggestion from there ? Bring those conversations and content from reddit by copying it and pasting it into the fallout community (if you decide to do it on our instance that is)
I'm one of the admins on HC and we don't care if you post stuff from reddit into a community you made. Obviously don't plagiarize, but basically just share it on HC in your community. I mean why not ? What could it hurt ?
I encourage you to try it and see what you get out of it. Think of it like an experiment and if doesn't work that's fine no big deal.
Seriously think about it man.
Hope you join us ! Heart ❤️ chin up !
Best of redditor updates was addictive. They filter out all the drama that is unfinished and leave you with more complete stories.
Other than that I miss that even lesser hobbies had active communities. You could ruin your life by clicking on the wrong thing and suddenly become so interested in carpet tufting that you buy a ton of gear. For the rest of your life you are taking photos of random carpets and discussing them.
I miss the What If subs.
Not on reddit or facebook anymore, kinda miss the Over 40 Skateboard and Snowboard communities.
