I really want there to be a community for Dropout as I love their content but I haven't found a good space to talk with others about them that doesn't involve some corporation harvesting my data.

Pathfinder_Kingmaker. I spent ages talking about builds and strategies on that reddit sub. I still miss guiding new players into the games. The BG3 community is the closest I've found but it doesn't scratch quite the same itch due to 5e's simplicity.

Pathfinder does have a few active communities but they are all for the tabletop. The one for the game on Lemmy.world is dead as a doornail.

Enlisted (the video game). I enjoyed the discussions on the subreddit. It's already got a small community, so it's no surprise that it's nonexistent on Lemmy.

JapanLife and JapanFinance. Tons of knowledge for people living in Japan where language, the legal system, etc. all are much easier to navigate with the help of people who have been here. They never really got off the ground in the fediverse and are the only reason I still go to reddit.

A 90dayfiance community. Also a local community that posted more than once a week.

i wish a lemmy community existed like r/wordington with unhinged content. And more communities dedicated to games, which are active like a Terraria community for instance.

An active Pikmin community

one for 1001albumsgenerator

An active box office community. I don’t really watch movies but I enjoy the data and the discussions about why movies are performing that way. @[email protected] tried to singlehandedly keep it afloat for some time, but it didn’t work unfortunately.

I imagine it’s like sports statistics but with a lower barrier of entry, and sometimes you watch a film franchise you enjoyed die in real time.

InfoWarriorRides / SchizophreniaRides, for pictures of cars with batshit crazy messages on them.

100YearsAgo could be mirrored here via bot and not miss much.

Other subs were great for their discussion more than than linked content - Civvie11, GunnerkriggCourt, DresdenCodak, QContent. Not so much DumbingOfAge because it devolved into a hatedom sub. I guess most of that should be lumped into comic and game-video communities. I could "be the change" and start posting speedruns willy-nilly.

LinkIsCute is here but pretty dead.

Polandball, holy shit!
