Share your favorite lesser-known communities, please! I’m always looking for more to join
I wish I saw more activity there… I guess I should feel proud of myself that I don’t have a good reason to post perhaps?
Edit: also !blender@lemmy.ml and !paleontology@mander.xyz
…and I can’t link communities apparently. But those are the ones
I think TIFU is one of those communities that can only exist when you have a larger userbase. There’s only so many times one individual can post a good fuck up .

Also, can people add a quick blurb about these communities so we know what they’re about?
hiphopheads@sopuli.xyz
For anyone who doesn’t want to be prompted to open the link in a mail client.
Ohhhhhhh, I thought it was a community about hippopotamuses
I’m always happy to pitch that there are dozens of us swifties over at !taylorswift@poptalk.scrubbles.tech
Also for the game Satisfactory come on over to !satisfactory@lemmy.world
There’s a venn diagram I never would have guessed existed.
If shameless self-promotions are okay:
- !source_ports@lemmy.sdf.org - Source ports for retro PC games, that allow them to run on different OSs, and/or with updated “modern” features and quality of life additions
- !laserdisc@lemmy.sdf.org - Anything LaserDisc related. I have a huge collection, and love preservation efforts.
I’m always open to right-hand info link exchanges with other similar communities, as well.
So are you a film junkie or into quirky tech?
I’d be reluctant to claim to be a film connoisseur, but I am a film lover.
I am however very, very into retro tech and media collection, and preservation.
Do you know Techmoan?
He’s gone subscription now, but his old content is still available.
I used to watch this guy’s stuff religiously back in the day. Today, not so much, but I still check out his stuff every once in a while.
Did you find him while you were looking for a dash cam?
No.
I found him randomly on YouTube when he made a video about a very specific Discman model that is too small to house full size CDs, but still plays them just fine. Since then I decided to check out his other stuff, and became a fan.
The community is cozy and supportive tho
Oh! I sub to this on the old Lemmy!

Fedidrama is dead :/
Would like to read some.
Maybe not dead, but certainly not ready yet 😔
I’d love to see more of this, to find new places.
!analog@lemmy.world for film photography
Have you checked out the following few communities?
!communitypromo@lemmy.ca for new communities to promote themselves as they try to get off the ground.
!newcommunities@lemmy.world for more or less the same, just via Lemmy World.
Also an underrated community that I like to use occasionally:
!lemmy411@lemmy.ca to ask about whether specific communities exist/are around that you may not be having much luck finding (say, due to unique naming or nobody on your instance has joined it so it doesn’t appear in search).
Lastly there’s my own little community I threw together awhile ago that I’m not sure how to grow where you can ask around for stuff similar to other stuff you’re into:
!FantasyFootball@lemmy.world can always use more contributors, especially now that its during the offseason!
American Football to be specific. Although, honestly now that its the NFL fantasy offseason, I wouldn’t mind seeing some PL content.
