The Lost Lands subreddit community has shifted gears this year, pushing back against recurring “who should I see?” posts flooding the forum ahead of the festival. One user sparked discussion by calling out the redundancy of these questions and spotlighting a detailed, user-created genre guide that categorizes every artist on the lineup.
Commenters widely agreed, encouraging fellow festival-goers to dive into the full lineup and listen before seeking crowdsourced opinions. The once-neglected pinned posts, especially the genre guides, are now gaining recognition as essential tools. Some users joked about the addictive hunt for Reddit karma tied to repetitive posts, but the consensus is clear:
Lost Lands fans want to explore the music themselves and make informed choices.
This trend could redefine how communities like Lost Lands engage with lineups — less “Help me pick!” and more “Here’s what I found,” making pinned resources the new festival research hub. For the DIY-minded, this shift is a win, transforming the subreddit into a smarter, more self-sufficient fanbase ahead of the 2025 festival.
