So this Lemmy place is pretty awesome, and I see it growing by the hour! Just like others link external sites for content here, we should really also share Lemmy content to external (e.g. Reddit, Twitter, etc.) to show others where the users are going now.

Redditors will talk about Lemmy and moving communities here, but it is really best shown that the communities are rebuilding here. Thoughts? I’ve started with a few memes and am starting a new community here as well!

    I am kinda missing my favorite communities from Reddit:

    • vinyljerk
    • blackmetalvinyl
    • lolgrindr
    • vinylreleases

    I wish those will receive a counterpart one day or just move here.

      One of the few small communities I’ll be sad to lose is HyruleEngineering. Can’t believe Reddit decided to shit the bed right when I found it.

      What I’m missing are the fintech/trading subs that were pretty active. Not just meme-tier junkfood like wallstreetbets, but actual strategy/implementation stuff like ThetaGang and AlgoTrading.

      The thing is, I haven’t found that stuff on Mastodon either. AFAICT the Fediverse at large leaning hard leftist/progressive means there’s a cultural bias against finance-adjacent topics. Bolstering this, I’ve encountered on various Discord servers that traders tend to be pretty largely right-wing, which has consistently put me in direct conflict with them.

      You can be the change you want to see in the world. if you search the communities and can’t find the one you’re looking for, make it.
