MODERATORS
Weird ones like the ones about the letter wars, eg r/theLetterH
And generally communities about movies and tv shows, eg dedicated series subreddits
Hobbydrama It was kinda interesting hearing about the inner workings and happenings in hobby's you never even heard about.
I have a lot of niche interests I would love to see made, like OSR ttrpgs, 3DS hacks, iPads, emulation, cargo bikes, and Note taking.
Would love to see r/hobbydrama, r/nosleep, and r/popculturechat
Iโve been mindlessly scrolling through r/M43 which is basically a sub to share and discuss Micro Four Thirds photography. Iโd love for a community like that to show up here!

Not trying to start any political debates. These are just some of the subreddits that I would like to see as communities here on Lemmy. Feel free to comment if some of these exist and I'll update my comment.
Ah, just realized that almost none of these are actually niche. Whoops.

Just the really small ones i was subscribed to, Tasker will probably be my most missed one, hard to find another forum specifically for one app!

/R/credibledefense I love the deep dives into defense procurement. Really hoping to find a community like that. I would make my own but I have no idea how to start and I don't have the background needed to be a good moderator (Or whatever the lemmy equivalent would be) in that kind of topic.

I spend way too much time on r/coffee. A lot of people think we are pretentious snobs (which can be true sometimes) but we're just stuck in the neverending pursuit of the "perfect cup."
Also r/linguistics and r/mathematics are fun to read, especially when new papers are published and there's a discussion going on
/r/internet_funeral. Probably my favorite sub on reddit.
LOINUX!
r/grandorder Probably my most used subreddit. Also r/hololive and r/nijisanji
not a niche, but not on lemmy -> r/Pizza !!!
r/BarefootRunning
r/cheesemaking
r/freebsd
r/zfs
Cycling communities, specifically the non-judgemental welcoming r/xbiking.

r/zillowgonewild, r/mcmansionhell, r/lastfm, and r/humansarespaceorcs have always been fun places for me. History-centric and hyperlocal neighborhood-level subs, too.
I also like most of the circlejerk subs. Maybe straightforward communities here will be less self-serious, thus making [blank]jerk counterparts unnecessary.
