What is a sub/community that you wish existed actively on Lemmy?

What is a sub/community that you wish existed (actively) on Lemmy?
Maybe there are others like you and we can actually get it running, or maybe to already exists but you just don't know!
I wouldn't mind some of the Random Acts to come over and be more active. Even though I never used it, I always thought the idea of the Random Acts of Pizza was a grand idea for those who are in need.
/r/liberalgunowners was a favorite. Everyone was so nice and accepting. We'd answer the same noob questions all day, no problem. None of "MuH 2A!" crap, nobody bloodthirsty. Anyway, I could go on, but it was nice while it lasted.
That seems like a really important community to have here
A community for the car I own, no matter what it is. (With thousands of active members, of course.)
Maybe not. Lemmy is very anti-car, it wouldn't take off here and would get massively downvoted.
I'm aware of that; doesn't mean that I can't still wish for it
There's [email protected], but it's been dead for a while. I kinda miss reading those stories about assholes getting what they asked for.
Another that was fun reading occasionally was scambait, where people would fuck with scammers to waste as much of their time as possible. I don't know if there's anything like that on Lemmy.
I'm very new so I haven't explored much yet, but I wish there were more subcomminities of the communities, like for example on Reddit there's subreddits for metal, but also subreddits for specific artists within that.
Or how there's all the gaming communities but not many sub communities for specific games outside of maybe some of the larger games/game series.
I guess just more niche or deeper within a specific topic communities I'd say. But there may just not be enough people to go super specific with communities yet. Or I haven't found them yet.
More women-oriented communities would be great. Skincare, makeup, women's fitness, female health, nail polish, aging. I'd love that.
Agree! I'd love to see more discussion around female health, not necessarily constructive but just bants about the 'gross' stuff, memes and complaints and stuff. The issue is that I'm a comment contributor more than a poster, as much as I try. So as much as I'd like to Be The Change, it really has to come from a lot of us posting and interacting.
A nail one would be great. Maybe we can make one.
All of the individual games I play and not just the general "gaming" subs. Plenty of video game enthusiasts on Lemmy; not enough to geek out over specific games. Or at least... Not the ones I play.
I also think it will be a long time before those can get up and running. There is much disdain towards video game companies on lemmy, and there is much right for it to exist. It does however make any community outside of the retrogaming hard to grow without the arguing.
This is a great reason to grow those places here, though. My biggest issue with game specific communities is the fact that the game companies try to control them. Most subreddits are moderated by the game companies, and official discords are a lost cause. We really need a neutral, public place to be to talk about games where we are allowed to actually be critical of them
Same. I miss r/OldWorldBlues and other strategy game communities. Most likely there aren't enough people who are interested in that mod, so maybe I'll bug the Fallout comm for that lol.
What games do you play?
I want lostmedia and unsolvermysteries communities to exist and be more active.
Ah I'd love for unresolvedmysteries to exist in an active form!
unfortunately the things I would most like are things I don't currently participate in that I greedly would love to be in the loop about. so pathfinder, star trek online, and champions online.
There is a whole instance for star trek!
Startrek.website. I don't think they have a community for the game though. Maybe ask one of their mods to create it? /u/[email protected]e.
Edit: how does one tag a user?
im aware. star trek online is an mmo.
To tag a user: @[email protected]
Some clients will start searching for users as soon as they you type the @ sign, at least Voyager does on iOS.
There appears to be nothing here yet that can rival https://old.reddit.com/r/advice.
We don't have enough Linux discussion
Did you forget the /s?
Writing Promts was cool
and the camouflage community (I may be very biased lol)
Writing Prompts was cool
Well, you're in luck!
They just started reopening the community, so hopefully more people will participate.
Awesome thank you!
The one on .world just shifted to literature.cafe.
The .world one was set up by an occasional contributor to the subreddit.
Comic_Crits and ctpsd creatives. Somewhere to post personal comic art to share and receive feedback.
SpeedofLobster! A good lobster always cracked me up.
Actually active formuladank community
I really should visit [email protected] more actively, most of the time the posts in there dont even show up on my feeds I think
Oh, man, if we could find someone on lemmy with the time, energy, and mad skills to do the same kind of race recaps that u/Alphamaxnova1 used to do I would be so happy.
Talesfromyourserver!
What did it used to be
[email protected] exists and would need someone to start oosting content there I guess
Reddit had a few really good and active lifting communities. There were interesting program reviews, sometimes everyone would run super squats together and report on the various effects of drinking a gallon of whole milk per day on the digestive tract. And I could help others join in and start lifting themselves into their best selves, since not many people in my real life circle are interested
Maybe at [email protected] ? I see there is some activity in there
You could try creating a lifting community on Lemmy, no? Who knows, maybe it would pick up?
I really miss bpt sometimes. Can't stand to be on actual twitter, but reddit wasn't so awful a medium to discuss highlights when I was still on the platform.
Drones
Codes (about ciphers)
Regarfing drones, both [email protected] and [email protected] seem to be somewhat active
Regarding codes/cyphers, I wonder whether something like that exists and simply has an unintuitive community name.. because that topic definitely fits fedi well
I feel like those topics should be prime for lemmy. Most people on Lemmy seem to be quite technical and well educated/smart. Programming.Dev would be a good home for those topics, no?
A general simracing community that's not hosted on .ml
I grew and modded the K League (Korean football) sub previously, and I've wondered about starting one Lemmy. I would like one to be here so that I can can keep up with what's happening easily, but I also kinda like not having a feeling of responsibility to post stuff regularly.
If I did start one, does anyone know if there's any technical problems with creating and modding a comm on an instance different from your home instance?
You could maybe start by posting stuff about korean football into a more general community, like [email protected]
Yeah, I know there's the football one, and I used to post a bit on the .world one, but it's a niche topic even within football, so I know I won't get much interaction from it.
You can only start communities on your home instance as far as I'm aware. However, you can mod remote communities. It just requires some hoops to go through. What you need to do is create an alt on your desired instance, create the community there, then make your main account a mod on it.
Last I heard there's still some problems with it and I'm guessing they won't be resolved soon, like how does moderation work if the reportee is on an instance that's defederated with yours but not the community instance?
Your options are either to create an alt to mod (or just move to the other instance) or to start the community on your home instance.

I never actually participated in discussions on there, but r/soccer is still my go-to source for keeping up to date with football news. That's probably the one I feel the most.
I was on r/soccer a lot as well, and considering its size I don't know why the football communities are relatively small. Also, the .world one is effectively locked for some reason.
The main community was moved from .world to [email protected] in an effort to decentralise and spread communities out instead of consolidating on .world. It's somewhat active as smaller communities go on Lemmy, but nothing like the news hub you could use r/soccer for.
[email protected] seems to be the currently active football/soccer community on lemmy. Additionally there are club-specific communities hosted on fanaticus.social
It exists, but there is almost nobody writing. I also haven't seen any other writing communities. I'm not interested in writing, usually, but I always enjoy reading what others have wrote.
HFY is basically the only reason I get on Reddit nowadays.
Sometimes I struggle with writing prompts for AI and I don't understand why it is not doing what I want. I wish there was a active community for helping with that.
For example I wanted it to go through this post https://piefed.jeena.net/post/125521 and list all the movies mentioned and augment them with the release date, director and genre. But it already fails at just finding the movies mentioned. I thought this is a perfect thing to do for AI which I can do easily manually but it just takes time, but nope.
There is [email protected]
Yeah that is a perfect use for AI. Here’s what I came up with:
Using this list of classic movies, can you create a table which also includes each movie’s release date, director and genre? (Insert list of movies)
Here is a table that includes each movie's release date, director, and genre:
Movie Title Release Date Director Genre M 1931 Fritz Lang Thriller, Crime, Mystery Gone with the Wind 1939 Victor Fleming, George Cukor, Sam Wood Drama, Romance, War The Godfather 1972 Francis Ford Coppola Crime, Drama Taxi Driver 1976 Martin Scorsese Crime, Drama, Thriller Murder on the Orient Express 1974 Sidney Lumet Crime, Drama, Mystery One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest 1975 Milos Forman Drama Rear Window 1954 Alfred Hitchcock Mystery, Thriller, Crime Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb 1964 Stanley Kubrick Comedy, War, Satire Chinatown 1974 Roman Polanski Mystery, Thriller, Drama Le Grande Bouffe 1973 Marco Ferreri Comedy, Drama L'Avventura 1960 Michelangelo Antonioni Drama, Mystery, Romance Tengoku to jigoku (High and Low) 1963 Akira Kurosawa Crime, Drama, Thriller This table lists the movie titles alongside their release dates, directors, and genres. Let me know if you'd like more details or adjustments!
See, yours didn't list all the movies either, just the ones from the post but not the comments. I tried to copy and paste the whole conversation but that also didn't really work. One time I thought it did it because it came up with over 100 movies but then when I checked it just invented movies instead of listing the ones which were in the conversation.
