I’m going to miss AITA. Even if someone makes it a community, it will take a long time to populate.

Honestly, I think the more reliable curated information will be what I miss the most. I almost always append a Google search with “Reddit” - because the information and format are so much more reliable than the bot populated garbage sites.
Also, niche porn subs. 🫡
/r/AskHistorians - ruthlessly and efficiently moderated, but every single post a fascinating read. I should msg Zukhov to see if he wants to move ship to /c/AskHistorians.
Really going to miss my local subreddit.
We had a weekly rant thread and it was funny just seeing neighbors talk smack or bitch about silly little things.
I’m really worried for those who use third party apps and depend on r/stopdrinking. That community single-handedly helped me get sober.
I fear that someone who is on the brink of breaking sobriety and wants to reach out on r/stopdrinking, not being able to access it from the app they normally use would be just enough of a hurdle for them to give in and start drinking again.
Makes me really sad to think about since it can be a dark place and the people there are so genuinely caring.
I mostly will miss being able to google something and adding “reddit” to my search to search for public opinion on day to day issues and problems.
r/AskHistorians. I don’t think a sub like that can just be remade out of nowhere
all of the weird, super-specific cute pages. illegallysmolcats, illegallysmoldogs, airplaneears, attackeyes, puppybellies, oneorangebraincell, stealthbombers, scrunge, peanutwhiskers, toebeans, whatswrongwithyourcat, crabcats, huskytantrums.
I… may have an addiction.
Not a subreddit, exactly, but I’m going to miss /u/poem_for_your_sprog and /u/Schnoodle_Doodle_Do. They made browsing so much better - I loved unexpectedly coming across one of their poems.
I’m going to miss many of them, I’m a real reddit junkie. But I’m leaving tonight and don’t expect to be back.
Most missed: Witches vs. Patriarchy. Can’t seem to find a lemmy equivalent.
Edit: my first comment!
I’ll miss clicking Top of All Time in all subreddits. In here I have to wait YEARS before I can find the Top of All Time content.
r/cancer It was a nice space to find support of other people going through what I’m going through.
I have created a community here (its called cancer just like the subreddit), all we need is more people. You are not alone
I tried to find your community and it didn’t come up in my search. Not sure if I’m doing something wrong or if there is something wrong with the community
Aw, shit, sorry to hear you’re going through that hell. Lost my left nut at 19 to that bastard. Obligatory fuck cancer. Rooting for you! Here’s hoping a similar community crops up here soon.
/r/history heavily moderated and has actual historical experts answering questions and has a big library of already answered questions.
r/talesfromtechsupport
r/TalesfromtheFrontDesk, r/TalesFromYourServer, and r/TalesFromRetail. The camaraderie and support among these people, the abuse they endure, and how big their hearts are despite how tough their jobs are… I really enjoyed those. I hope they land somewhere here.
Would add r/TalesFromTechSupport. I don’t work in any of these fields, but still enjoyed reading all the stories there.
Shitposting/humour subreddits for niche topics, like r/languagelearningjerk, r/vexillologycirclejerk and r/worldjerking
