https://www.home-barista.com/ Is pretty good for coffee related topics, specifically espresso. It's a lot more technical than /r/espresso

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Meal.. Music?
Only one I frequent is a NSFW forum. Not sure if I should name it
I'd like to know, DM me.
Well now you have to

miata.net!
Planted Tank is great for planted aquariums, and Fish Lore has an active general fishkeeping forum.
Vortex is a Volkswagen forum but has tons of conversation around other brands, too.
The official LOTRO forums are the only official game forums I've found that aren't super toxic. Great community.
Really, I think old-school forums are best for specific niche interests.
Fish lore was great until i got banned for offering to help. No discussion or chance to appeal. Its run by a bunch of abusive idiots if you ask me. The forum and users are great though.
+1 for vwvortex!
I do like Whirlpool, an Australian forum primarily centred on technology. It's still active despite the general decline of forums, has a lot of useful info to turn up in searches, and I appreciate how it has remained clean and fast without the visual clutter and wasted data of modern web design.
Therpf.com forums if you are serious about making costumes and replica props.
Tomshardware forums are still pretty decent for tech help.
LS1tech.com if you are working on an LS engine. Everything you could possibly want to know.
Thereβs actually quite a few Internet forums out there that cater to crowds that may be a little averse to technology and adopting things like discord or using Reddit. Car repair, Automotive, DIY construction and home repair, surprisingly quite a few tech forums like XDA developers or Tomβs, machinists, prop-making, Making in generalβ¦. Sometimes theyβre not very active unfortunately, but they do have a searchable wealth of knowledge.
Something Awful
I've been tempted to join that site, but it seems to have too many rules.
Still worth it to lurk, they manage the fine line on being edgy without also being annoying.

Itβs for maintaining and restoring classic Lincoln continentals. Lots of knowledge both in the content and in the members. You donβt find much outside of the forum.
The Cartographer's Guild. Although I have never actually posted there. I just stop by when I'm trying to draw a better map for my D&D games
Board Game Geek is cool, and Metal Archives is useful when I want to check that an interesting black metal band is not, in fact, a pack of nazis
rpg.net is pretty good, but I don't post there anymore. I may have eaten a large ban in a stupid argument about accessibility. I still don't think being able to unilaterally change the rules of the game in your favor in a multiplayer game falls under accessibility, but apparently some people do!
