    I miss women centric subs, especially thes ones with a mix of posts that foster discussion, memes, and support such as witchesvspatriarchy

    Best of redditor updates because I want my stories lol

    Specific subs for shows because I like reading episode discussions, often someone catches something I missed that gives more context or they catch clues and foreshadowing. Theories too. Or just seeing if anyone else had same thoughts I did! I think it will be a long time before lemmy is big enough to be close to that, and will probably only be newer shows.

    Also just the sheer volume of content produced every day. I’ll hold strong though and not give reddit any traffic. Reddit was fantastic as a lurker, posting most anywhere large felt like whispering into a void. Lemmy is great for actually participating, I think it will be a long time yet until it’s as fun for lurking.

      Same here - I hope more female-oriented communities get going. WitchesVsPatriarchy, TrollXChromosomes, and all the chaos of the Netflix Cinematic Universe reality shows were a blast on Reddit.

      I have found !witchymemes@lemmy.world so far!

        Thank you that is a great start! I have quite a few saved memes to start contributing as well. It doesn’t seem quite the same so I hope we have something else soon. I would be a terrible mod and still confused by most of this fediverse thing otherwise I would make what I want to see.

      You aren’t the first to mention the women-central communities. I did start !heronebag@wayfarershaven.eu but I’m not sure what else to start and even if I’m the right person to mod it - it would probably need a team. Any ideas or suggestions? What kind of community would you like to visit?
