as a reddit refugee i mostly use lemmy, but sometimes i go back by a lack of alternative to some subreddit, which one you feel there is a need ?

    I’ll say it for everyone (and myself), NSFW communities. Reddit is still effectively king for that, at least for now.

      There is a fair few out there, one main issue is that you can’t even get a list of nsfw communities without being logged in on the instances they’re created in.

      IIRC the only instance that patches that check out and is remotely discoverable because of it is lemmynsfw. Whatever communities other instances have are basically hidden to all but the select few who know about them / have an account there and goes to look them up.

      I may be in the minority here, but I don’t miss the sexual NSFW content from reddit at all. I was getting tired of seeing OF accounts posting semi-flirtatious things in completely unrelated subs in order to garner attention.

      It was totally new to me that people use Reddit for porn. Actually, I only realised that because they were complaining about the supposed lack of these communities on Lemmy. So, you aren’t really speaking for everyone…
