Question What are some Reddit communities you enjoy hanging out in?

I got banned from the men writing women subreddit when someone posted a laughably bad/wrong depiction of what menstruation is like and I commented, "Did Jonathan Yaniv write this? LOL"

None - aside from the TRAs, the literal pedo mods running it, the silencing of women, the depth of depravity of the porn there - once FDS mentioned the culture of ‘toxic positivity’, it’s all I can see on the more mainstream subs.

None. I deleted my reddit account after I got banned from FourthWaveWomen. That's where I used to hang out.But it was my third main sub already. I was on GC (till it was banned), then I was on FDS (till I was banned for disagreeing with them about radical feminism) and now I got booted from FWW. I know that last ban was only to protect the sub because I was espousing GC views, but it's ridiculous they have to act like that to stay in a misogynist place like Reddit.

So, after that I was done. Deleted Reddit and reclaimed my free time.

I visit the subreddits relating to dogs, but i find a lot of them to be snobby, unwelcoming to beginners and very America centric.

Literally hundreds of cat and other misc animal subs, a few crocheting and yarn subs, different tv show subs, STEM subs, weed subs, also subs like AmITheAsshole and AskReddit.

All of Reddit is TRA, and you can't freely participate. I used to try to find "nonpartisan" subs so to speak when r/GC was still around, but since the bans it's literally impossible to avoid anti-woman crap on there no matter where you are. I recommend not using reddit at all. I really don't miss it.

Okay, let’s see. Well, first there’s video game or TV related subreddits which will obviously depend on what you like. Then you get ones like AskEurope, AskAnAmerican, etc. Those are fun. SubredditDrama and HobbyDrama are pretty interesting. AskHistory is good for history questions because it’ll actually get answered unlike the more rigorous AskHistorians. And then there’s OutOfTheLoop, AgedLikeMilk, AgedLikeWine, etc.

Boring subreddits like the one for my city, sports teams I like, electronics repair, appliance repair, and the cooking ones- there's one that has to do with eating good in a budget but I can't remember the name.

Oh also I like talking about albums on the subreddits for various bands.

I mostly just lurk in hobby-related subs. Classic World of Darkness subs, specific gaming subs (Deep Rock Galactic, VTMB, etc), cat/dog/rabbit/snake/etc pictures, weird memes (anarchy chess! Antimemes! Copypastas!), semi-serious geopolitics (anime__titties, polandball, etc), weird architecture that I like (brutalist gang)... You'll occasionally find cringe TRA shit even in the weirdest of subs (saw a libfem "demigirl" jacket in battlejackets recently) but imo as long as you stay off the normie places of reddit it's actually a pretty palatable place.

I used to visit r/cats, one of the knitting subs (was there one called kitting?) and a couple of history subs. I soon lost interest in the history ones because it was all US or French Revolution or ancient history, none of which I wanted to read about, and the cats and knitting ones were either “help my cat is dying” level-depressing or too rules-ridden. I prefer a cats-and-knitting forum elsewhere and I no longer have a Reddit account. Never have found online fora about the periods of history I like.
