For example, I used to follow a lot of subreddits for individual YouTube content creators, however, Lemmy doesn’t really have the size or culture to support this currently.
Programming languages. (Not programming in general, but specifically language design.)
I have a few!
- Vaporwave minidiscs
- Nail polish & nail art
- Skincare
- Fitness over 40
- Greyhounds
!skincareaddiction@sh.itjust.works
I post there regularly, but it could use some more activity
Vaporwave minidiscs
I love minidiscs!! I found my Sharp MD the other week and I wanna start collecting MDs.
I was thinking of collecting MD players too, Defo want one of the later NetMD players.
Hobby machining, automotive, scca.
Maybe I need to think about hosting…
We got !machinist@sh.itjust.works
I do miss justrolledintotheshop.
Yesss. I need my mechanic shitposting back I love those boys
(Original) drawings, paints, sketches made by the OP. Talk about paint, inks, papers, …work in progress stuff, problems & solutions.
Yes I loved /r/draw /r/digitalpainting and some others.
Software Defined Radio, Ham Radio, RF Electronics, amateur satellites and Meshtastic.
The only community I am (more than) fully satisfied here is Linux.
Oh, but also communities like askdentists, psoriasis, etc. Those were pretty helpful on Reddit.
I wish there was somewhere to talk about Counter-Strike, particularly the e-sports scene.
Ironically, I want somewhere to talk about Counter-Strike excluding the e-sports scene. There is nowhere to learn smokes, share maps, or even find a team.
Blender artists
scale models.
Logic puzzles, esp. variety Sudoku.
The only reason I check Reddit with any regularity anymore is for content local to where I live. There’s a few communities on the fediverse for my area, but with only minimal, sporadic activity.
I would love to see more activity around fostering animals, particularly cats. I started !FosterAnimals, and have participated over at !fosterkittens, but it seems there’s not many of us so far.
Not exactly a hobby. But lost media/lost wave.
Aviation/Flying. r/flying had been a pretty much daily stop for me prior to leaving reddit as it was one of they only good places to talks with other pilots. I’d love to have a place to chat with other pilots and/or homebuilt aircraft folks rather than a dozen or so barely maintained forum sites.
lemmyfly.org seems to have disappeared, or gone blank, for some reason.

Random educational posts, like stuff that is actually useful. Like physics lessons.
!science@mander.xyz and !science@lemmy.world ?
!physics@mander.xyz and other mander.xyz communities might be interesting
It doesn’t speak about the foundational basics. It mostly is a stream of complicated research articles. You can’t really learn anything that way.
Cacti/succulents and wine (the fermented grape juice one, not the linux one). There are cactus and succulent communities in Lemmy, but they’re not very active, and wine obes are completely dead…
if anyone links me to one ill post stuff
Which one? For cacti there’s !cactus@sh.itjust.works, for succulents we have !succulents@midwest.social, and I couldn’t find any wine ones with more like 10 posts.
