For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

I cared more about the niche communities than I did about Reddit as a whole. Once those move over here, I'll be just fine.

There's already a few retro game communities but it was nice to have difference branches for different consoles and eras. So many other little things too, like city subs, ones for specific bands, shows, etc.
