What’s This Rock and What’s This Fossil. I was actually getting really good at my mineral identifications, I would try guessing the mineral before opening the three to see if I got it right or not. The fossil one because sometimes you got to see some really cool stuff, other time hilariously, bad fossils made with mosasaur teeth. And the occasional flint arrow head or hand axe but we’re not in the scope of the subreddit but still cool anyway.

I've wanted to open a string of video game subs on lemmy but i don't know what instance is best. It would have to be something that is ok with occasional porn and bad words (but not bigotry).

  1. Taskmaster the tv show or other general british panel shows.

  2. An active cricket sub.

r/bjj the Brazilian Jiu-jitsu sub. The community here is pretty dead

[–] hitagi@ani.social 7 points 11 months ago (2 children)

The humorous mental health subs. League of Legends (outside of pro league stuff).

Tip of my tongue, Tip of my joystick and Sid Meier's Civilization. The first two subs have Lemmy communities (!tipofmytongue@lemmy.world and !tipofmyjoystick@lemmy.ml) but, sadly, they lack activity. r/civ is one of the only subreddits i'm still using, because it has lots of unique guides not found anywhere else.

Some mental health subs on here would be nice...

Personally, I'd appreciate more art subs being on here as well!

AmITheAsshole. There's a few but they're all bots that repost Reddit content. No original ones that I've seen so far

r/zombiesurvivaltactics was a nice place for serious conversation about imaginary scenarios.

r/SamHarris was a great place for rational and intellectual discussion overall. People on that sub were significantly more measured and considerate with other people even about stuff they disagreed with than people on reddit in general.

I really miss the community in r/woodstoving

[–] Adi2121@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 months ago

r/NonCredibleDiplomacy and r/weezer. Two subs with insanely specific humor that I loved.

[–] OhmsLawn@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

I'm approaching extraction day, getting a little less than half my teeth pulled. I was lurking on r/dentures for quite a while before I left. It would be nice if that community were around here.

I really miss submechanophobia.

Would have to say the r/imaginaryelections and r/imaginarymaps communities for alternate history. If anyone knows any lemmy/Mastodon communities for that it'd be appreciated!

[–] ComfortablyGlum@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

R/Greebles and r/crabcats!

What is needed to make the majority of reddit users switch so that they bring all subreddits with them?

Roborock or robovac, would be nice to keep up to date on new products and share troubleshooting info with other robovac owners / shoppers, but building that community here isn't a task I'm up to.
