For me it’s been communities like /r/buildapc, /r/buildapcforme, /r/buildapcsales, /r/gamedeals, and /r/consoledeals have been useful throughout the years.

    Might not be the most popular option but a shitposting sub along the lines of 196/197/19684 is the major one for me. Would also love to see a 3dprinting community, but I kinda think something along the lines of technical hobbies/niches are a best case scenario for new services joining the fediverse.

      Ooh that is the kind of content that would really make me feel at home. We need a corner for stupid humor.

          True, but places like 19684 have a certain flavor of humor. It’s like absurdism had a baby with r/dank_memes while occasionally huffing brake cleaner. 😂

          Beehaw isn’t ready for it yet as we need to get bigger, but eventually I could see it thriving here.

            Haha yeah, that seems a pretty accurate gist of it. You’re right though, think its just a thing that will come with time and the number of folk start to necessitate subdividing things a little.
