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.

A knitting and crochet community, regardless if its separated or together as a unified fiber arts community would be a godsend
I want equivalents for:
- r/Fantasy
- r/tipofmytongue (iirc that name - the one for helping people find shit they've forgotten)
- maybe r/52books (it produces too many simple posts to just go in r/books, not sure if the same would be true here)
- r/vegetarian
Edit: r/fantasy is the biggest one for me. In effect the subreddit is really more for SciFi and Fantasy, both - and other speculative fiction - and they have a yearly speculative fiction bingo card that's really fun to participate in. It's mostly books in practice but is not exclusively about books.
For me, the real magic of Reddit was in hyperspecific niche communities full of hobbyist experts -- or even professionals. Places like r/tolkienfans.
count me in on a tolkienfans replacement!
There was a time when /r/youtubehaiku was one of my most visited subs. It would be great to see more short weird videos that give you a little chuckle.
local geographic area. ought to be easy to create and find users. useful too!
r/Aquariums, r/PlantedTanks, r/Aquascape !
I saw it sort of mentioned, but I think niche shitposting communities like the various okbuddy subs.
/r/chaosmagick
For me it's all the photography-related communities. Photography, Cinematography, Analog, & Astrophotography are the primary ones.
/r/curvy . I mean, uh, /r/gardening. Yeah that one..
Off the top of my head communities like
r/3rprinting r/instantpot r/todayilearned r/therewasanattempt r/space r/changemyview r/unpopularopinion
Videos/mealtimevideos was a big thing for me. They kept me entertained while I ate lunch, lol.
I miss r/actuallesbians, r/MTF, and some obscure gaming communties like r/titanfall, r/Metroid and r/Earthbound.
Oh and the brainrot known as r/okbuddychicanery and r/anarchychess.
I'd really like to see a photography community pop up. Not necessarily a /fujifilm /leica community, but a general photography place for folks to share their snaps, and get advice about techniques and gear.
Hmmm ...

I'm missing a lot of more specialised things, but these are pretty broad I think

Eldritch horror Garfield is essential to any online community.
You're joking but currently a discord I'm in has a cult over a specific Garfield Minus Garfield comic, a cult that got genuinely rowdy when the comic stopped being posted.
All I'm saying, Garfield is probably an elder god
I'm probably only half joking. I love when people just do weird shit for the hell of it, it reminds me of the early internet. People doodling horrific Garfield content is weirdly wholesome and just makes me happy.
I glanced briefly, but couldn't find a topic on it. What's the stance on NSFW (i.e. porn, art, etc.)?
Most instances (servers) don't allow porn because it needs constant content moderation (laws against CP and other nasty stuff). They simply don't want the liability. But it's not forbidden to create a server that allows/hosts pornographic stuff. I bet we will see some porn servers in the near future.
Game related communities (/r/tf2, /r/chess to name a few!)
Edit: Just realised I want some tech-related stuff like /r/homelab, /r/selfhosted, /r/privacy, /r/homeserver and more too
gotta have one for ~~my crack addiction~~ Destiny
