Popular subreddit alternatives

What are some kbin or Lemmy alternatives to common Reddit subs?

I'll certainly miss r/unexpected, r/guitarlearning, r/damnthatsinteresting, r/historymemes and many more

Hopefully this can turn into a useful thread for everyone looking to replace Reddit with a close enough experience, and maybe even a better one once it gains traction

Here are some I have found:

  • m/TodayILearned
  • m/showerthoughts
  • m/mechanicalkeyboards
  • Memes@lemmy.ml
  • Gaming@beehaw.org
  • Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml
  • Rust Programming@lemmy.ml
  • Technology@beehaw.org

I just started /m/mixingmusic for those who are interested in talking about that stuff. Used to be r/audioengineering on Reddit.

I was a very active user on r/audiodrama, which had about 260K members before I logged off on Sunday night. It'll be interesting to see how many return tomorrow. I expect most.

I started https://kbin.social/m/audiofiction less as a replacement and more of a "let's experiment with this" service. I didn't make a lot of noise about it, but I'm encouraged by the small amount of activity. It's given me the boost of confidence to perhaps spin up a new kbin instance, with lots of magazines for the myriad topics that are a part of the larger "audio fiction" world. That's the theory, anyhow!

Surprisingly didn't see a magazine for it yet so I made https://kbin.social/m/tea for my fellow leaf juice enjoyers. :)

I'm planning on migrating my /r/pudu subreddit of cute & tiny reddish-tan deer to /m/Pudu here.
I'm not participating in the blackout, but am gonna close it for good when stuff calms down for more visibility.

While not big, 196 has a sort of cult following: https://kbin.social/m/196. I spun up https://kbin.social/m/schizophrenicpissdawn if that is your thing.

I don't know if there's a college football sub yet. The sports subs and game/postgame threads are what I'll miss the most of reddit goes away

meatbag,

Why can’t I see comments :(

1Blocker was blocking it on my iPhone, maybe check anything like that?

meatbag,

Forgot I wrote this! Also forgot I had 1Blocker! Switching to Firefox fixed it. Was using safari before. Thanks!

I'm running /m/splatoon, /m/fgc, and /m/mahjong. Not too much there yet but I hope to see more activity!

crossmr,

I'd actually started @SoILearned as an alternative to TodayILearned before noticing someone recreated that one here. There were a number of fact subs like that on Reddit, but it's a good idea to have rules and standards for it otherwise the submissions turn into a bit of a mess.
