I'm surprised nobody mentioned my absolute fav /r/askhistorians
Please PLEASE get this one up and running! That place is a treasure trove of information. So much so, they should have their own website while maintaining a lemmy domain. That info should be disseminated across multiple platforms so it isn't lost.
The mods seem to not like Lemmy specifically but I donβt know what their plan is. It seems like theyβre just gonna be in this restricted mode forever. Makes it easier to leave Reddit though.
Maybe the Ask history mods don't understand how to use it yet? This platform does take a bit of learning, but every update seems like it increases the end user experience
r/AskScience too
Ask Science exists! It's on the lemmy.world instance
/c/askscience@lemmy.world
Excellent, thank you.
And it needs to be well modded.
