Your favorite movie, series, or anything else really that you can’t find a community here (or maybe it just doesn’t exist)

I’m not seeing enough Linux content, are there any Linux communities on Lemmy?
Nope, sorry about your luck. Nothing on anime or Star Trek, either.
On reddit, there’s a subreddit called r/lrcast, which is the dedicated subreddit for the Limited Resources podcast. The primary purpose of the subreddit, however, is not to discuss the podcast, but to discuss the “limited” format of Magic: the Gathering, which constitutes draft and sealed. It’s a very difficult, very expensive format of Magic to play and is a niche subsection of an already fairly niche hobby.
I’ve got one! Obscure textile crafts.
There are knitting/crochet communities of course, but all the super niche ones like ply-split braiding or smocking are too rare to warrant a whole community to themselves. On reddit there was a defunct sub called bistitchual, both for all obscure fibercrafts and for combinations of unrelated fibercrafts in one work. I wish we had it here.
Seeing as this thread is still active, instead of continuing to reply to people throughout, gonna go ahead and put this out here.
If you’re not finding an active community for something (safe for work, that is) or any community whatsoever for your interest, you’re welcome to post about the topics that interest you in [email protected] till you find enough likeminded people to get a separate community going. This was always allowed tbh, but I’ve tried to make it more explicit and clear that it’s cool.
Religion. I love talking to people about what they believe and why, and other philosophical discussions, but the two communities I created for those types of discussions have been dead since the Reddit exodus.
I would like an opera community.
the singing or the browser?
Singing!
A Tolkien based active community would be great. Reddit had/has a few that were fairly active. There are communities here but really not active at all.
Also wish the NBA community was more active - quite frankly surprised it’s not.
Portland, OR
Or what?
Portland, Oregon
Rocket League, and lots of other games, seem to have stayed on Reddit.
AskHistory or something similar.
A history subreddit would be nice to see. It genuinely brings joy to my face to learn some interesting facts about the middle-ages. And overwhelming amount of Lemmy users need reminding of what happened in Cambodia in the late 70s.
Hopefully not as a bunch of really good question posts full of mod-deleted answers.
Hopefully, that aspect was awful.
Research paper reading groups.
Do you know of any other sites that have this? Sounds awesome
Is this like a book club but for research papers?
yup!
Sounds like a good way to gain higher level reading literacy
Like in general or regarding specific topics?
Initially in general, but if there was enough interest breaking into specific topics would be nice to
What’s your domain?
Math, electronics, algorithms, and chemistry are interesting to me
As a bonus behavioral economics
Algorithms sound interesting to me from a research paper perspective. Im a little intimated by the others.
You’re welcome to post about papers and discuss them over in [email protected] to try to get this going for more specific communities!
Judo !
I miss r/livesound. It was a fantastic resource and a very active community.
A lab work group, like that one on Reddit. I cannot remember the name and I sure as hell will not go to that damned site, but it was basically full of graduate students and technicians that shared stories from their labs.
The labrats subreddit was kinda fun. I’m a chemist, but the chemistry subreddit was overwhelmed by people asking for homework advice, showing off bad caffeine tattoos, and getting upset when they couldn’t talk about drugs or explosives.
