I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already.
Despite that, some of my hobby ones still aren’t here. NFL exists, but it’s the same as nothing so far. Soccer I couldn’t find at first, maybe today it already does? Also, no sign of fantasy football.
I also followed a bunch of History subs, but looks like most people in Lemmy only care about science and technology.
Tell us, what is missing for you?
Not really. My most visited subs on reddit (fuck spez) were Rimworld, Zomboid, Hunt Showdown and various hobby/profession subs (graphic design, illustration, itap, photography). I’m fairly confident a UX/UI sub will pop up sooner rather than later considering how techie Lemmy’s userbase seems to be. Iirc there is a gaming related comm on beehaw, but the odds those three games will be talked about is rather slim.
Edit: also, Swoleacceptance. Recently got back to the gym due to mental health. Was a gym rat years ago but life got in the way.
Upvoted for the “fuck spez”
I feel you on the mental health getting in the way of the gym. I’ve recently started getting back into share due to improving my mental health and I’m kicking myself for not going back sooner.
I’m hoping some more niche hobby/profession communities will come over soon. If not I may have to start one and that’s a scary thought.
Start it, it helps with the user migration when potential new sign ups visit lemmy for the first time, someone will probably offer to moderate it on your behalf in the future
I’m not sure I’m feeling the mental health benefits yet (today I did get an endorphin rush however, first time in a while), but I’ve been back for a very short time. Dealing with some injuries and post covid symptoms now, mostly endurance related, as well, which hasn’t been fun but eh, I’ve been worse. At the very least I’ve gone down a few sizes and look okay in most of my wardrobe. Though I will say, I did miss pull day.
Agree on the scary thoughts. I’m not much of a social person and have committment issues, I’d be a terrible mod, lol.
Yeah it took a little while to feel the mental health benefits, basically once I also fixed my sleep schedule. But the hardest part was sticking to it earlier on.
I’ve only been working out again for a couple months and I usually focus on body weight stuff and cardio. I’ve never been big on getting swoll just filled out of that makes sense.
I’ve definitely got some old injuries that like to make things tough but I just remember the physical therapy I had to do for them and add those exercises back into the mix.
