I'm genuinely so excited to see some of the more focussed communities blossom on this platform as they have on Reddit over the years. Which are your favourites and which do you think could succeed here?

I would like to see r/simracing/

If you want to see a specific community that doesn't exist, then set it up and post some content! If you want the type of places to hang out that you had on Reddit, you need to create it, nurture it, and grow it. There's no guarantee that Lemmy will be the place to land during the Reddit exodus, but it is a place to land, and a damn fine one at that. Putting my money where my mouth is, if you ever want to talk about calculators head on over to !calculators@midwest.social

All the niche communities. I've been here for a couple months now but boy is that what we need.

[–] leanleft@lemmy.ml 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

niche communities are [both] hard AND easy.
some niche communites have a hard time staying active on ordinary reddit. (so therefore what does that mean for lemmy's sucess rate)
on the otherhand:
reddit nich communites are such a horrific failure , in many cases, that literally one active poster would make lemmy versions massively superior to shitty mainstream reddit.

Have you tried reaching out to them to talk to them about Lemmy?

D&D/TTRPG subs like r/DMAcademy, r/3d6, r/Pathfinder2e, r/dndnext, r/dndbehindthescreen, r/dnd, r/dndmaps, etc.

Subs related to specific games I enjoy like r/Stellaris, r/Rimworld, r/crusaderkings, r/citiesskylines, r/slaythespire

Subs where design and cool information that interests me can be shared like r/vexillology, r/history, r/mapporn, r/dataisbeautiful, r/etymology, r/todayilearned, etc.

Neurodivergence spaces like r/Aspergers, r/AutisticWithADHD, and r/autism

Subs built around a certain kind of joke or humour like r/sbubby, r/expanddong, r/Polandball, r/highqualitygifs, etc.
