As someone with CPTSD, OCD and Bipolar + psychosis, definetely mental health subs. Particularly suicidewatch.
Homeowners, lawn care, local area specific communities.
As a Windows sysadmin:
- Sysadmin
- SCCM
- PowerShell
That sub is dead. Last post was two weeks ago with zero comments, and the one before was a whole month ago.
homelab
I always found the sysadmin sub to have an air of bitterness around it. Instead, I focused on the hobbyist tech-subs (such as selfhosted). Grated, their issues have a smaller scope, but still…
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !sysadmin@lemmy.world
Yes, but it’s quite inactive. That community basically died shortly after the Reddit exodus. Check the stickied Patch Tuesday megathread for instance, it hasn’t been updated in two months, which shows that the mods have abandoned the community or don’t care - and given that no users posted there either, it seems like users also stopped caring.
Definitely, the three most are mostly missing.
I’m always surprised nobody claimed it as most of people on Lemmy are probably in tech.
Most Lemmy tech people are skewed towards FOSS, from what I’ve seen. Not that it’s a bad thing mind you.
Linux sysadmins are just a different breed, most of their issues/discussions revolve around the choice of distro or around corporate takeovers/license changes (Terraform, LXD etc), and very rarely about actual issues (because there are rarely any issues that matter or can’t be fixed easily, if you’re doing your job right). Whereas in the Windows world we’re at the mercy of Microsoft, and often have to rely on the community coming for feedback around issues and workarounds (cause MS support is useless), or because Microsoft is bent upon taking away choice, we’ve have to rely upon the community coming up with innovative solutions for various things. So yea, I really do miss seeing those sort of discussions, as they were quite helpful for my job and gave a lot of insight on different things. Even if there were no issues, just reading about different infrastructure setups and configurations at various workplaces was quite enlightening.
I see, thanks for your perspective!
What I meant, is that even if most of the people are biased towards FOSS, on 30k active users, there should be a least a few interesting in taking over that community
Pokemon, League of Legnds and Path of Exile.
I really miss submechanophobia.
You miss being afraid of pineapples under the sea?
People were posting great submerged pineapple material.
The Genshin fandom is much weaker here. I miss the endless *Mains communities with their useful guides, and the remarkable thirst of some of the groups :cough: /r/GenshinGays :cough:
Dude, there’s so much on Lemmy I have been exposed to because I left /r, I’m hoping to get around to your community and be more active then, too. Maybe we could be communicants when I get there.

Like DragonsFuckingCars?
The hatred of cars on Lemmy is beyond ridiculous.
There is a pretty big FuckCars community on Lemmy.

Cars are for unrefined masses. Men of culture prefer trains and piblic trasportation.
Liking cars themselves as a hobby is not incompatible with advocating for better public transit

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

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.
The first one sounds interesting as hell, I will create it a bit later, if nobody already did. If you did (hopefully, not on lemmy.world), please drop me a message with a universal link, I’d gladly help posting some content and even moderating the community.
There is https://sopuli.xyz/c/zombiesurvival but it’s quite inactive
!zombiesurvival@sopuli.xyz <- universal link, works from all instances
What is needed to make the majority of reddit users switch so that they bring all subreddits with them?
Better mod tools, smoother onboarding experience, ability to block instances.
This is being worked on, but as of now, those can be blockers for a lot of people still on Reddit.
I think dogelore recently started up here, let me try and find it
Edit: no that was !dogeposting@lemmy.world
Something like KarmaCourt
okbuddyphd, shittymobilegameads, pizzacrimes, garfieldwithoutgarfield, just all the really stupid obscure ones that give me a chuckle browsing through.
