I'm not sure there are as Reddit already has subreddit for almost anything imaginable, but I can say that due to how Fediverse operates, I'm seeing more specialized communities that is probably represented just as a tag in a subreddit.

For example my country has one subreddit, with some sister subreddit for photography, food, some big cities, etc, but all these sisters are really low in both content and subscribers. People would rather post to the main subreddit and add [PICS] tag rather than post in photography subreddit, for example. While in Lemmy someone made an entire instance for my country, so we could create more communities and they all are going to be displayed in Local.
