Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Soccer and photography are probably the two main ones that come to mind for me. I'm really happy to see the new writing community, and I'm excited to see more specific creative communities come about.
r/vegan
And in no way, am I saying I would like to recreate that community, but a vegan friendly space with Beehaw's core values, just sound amazing to me. r/vegancirclejerk was great too, but I had personal issues with the mods.
Ditto but for r/vegetarian, which had a lot of vegan users too. I want to talk about cooking, but not have to wade through posts about meat to do it.
Yeah, I get that for sure. But for me, anytime you mention vegan or vegatarian stuff on reddit, it was met with downvotes and just a lot of rudeness and misinformation. So sure, maybe right now there isn't a niche space carved out here, but I know everyone here will be respectful. I can post a vegan chicken sandwich and nobody is going to be upset about it, cause its like, not really a big deal at all lol. Reddit though, you can't post veg or vegan things outside those places.
Looking for "local" city and state/province communities. A place to talk about local politics, share information on upcoming events/festivals, talk about traffic and weather.
But reality is Lemmy isn't that big yet. So maybe start regional like how midwest.social is doing and divide it up when activity is too much to handle.
/r/curvy . I mean, uh, /r/gardening. Yeah that one..
While probably not needed yet I can see a need in the future for a mini painting/tabletop/ttrpg spin off from the single gaming community if it grows substantially.
Some that I have come to enjoy on "That other site":
Facepalm InstantKarma KDE Linux (although I appreciate there's a community for OS) ObsidianMD StarTrek Buddhism Astronomy Motocycle (and/or MotoUk) Meditation Archery Rollerblading
Off the top of my head communities like
r/3rprinting r/instantpot r/todayilearned r/therewasanattempt r/space r/changemyview r/unpopularopinion
changemyview was fantastic when people were actually open to discussing their view; I witnessed some very thoughtful discussions. Some people would unfortunately hardline their opinion and reply with things like, “Yeah but that doesn’t change my opinion,” and seemed as though they were not actually open to changing their view.

I really like changing my wallpapers, so something for mobile wallpapers. Also, I really enjoyed r/
whatisthisthing for wacky things people found
askdocs and legaladvice for advise on when to seek professional assistance
askreddit (which I see some posts, along with AMA-type things on c/chats)
YouShouldKnow and LifeProTips
Outoftheloop to ask questions for summaries (e.g., Why is everyone talking about Johnny Depp?)
For an askreddit replacement there is an asklemmy community on the lemmy.ml instance !asklemmy@lemmy.ml
Honestly though I hope it doesn't become too much like askreddit. That sub got increasingly repetitive with it's questions (i guess there's only so many questions to ask internet strangers though)

Mystery, true crime, or r/RBI type content would be all it takes to solidify my place here. Many of those communities across the web lean into their toxicity, so I’m crossing my fingers for a sane place to engage in discussion and participate in deep dives.
Even more specifically, subs like r/whatisthisthing or r/toyid are fun for people who enjoy some light sleuthing. Anyone know if there’s a Lemmy equivalent or adjacent to any of these?
I would personally like a fine art related community. Something for critique and discussion of art and art history. It seems like many places I’ve been before turn their nose up at anything abstract or outside the realms of traditional western art.
