Yeah every time Reddit pulls some shitty stunt, we get a new influx of angry people demanding algorithms, whining about federation being too complicated and picking fights.
It’s like the bar just closed and everybody’s going to 7-Eleven to be mad about it.
My bar isn’t set too high to beat Reddit.
I’d be perfectly happy if we have small but thriving communities spread throughout the fediverse on a diverse set of niche topics.
We’re in a good place for memes, star trek, and general discussion, niche content still has ways to go.
But to those people that are trying and posting to niche communities, I see you and I appreciate you!
I just want more diversity of communities. That needs more diversity of users, and that needs scale.

We need more activity in local communities too. Even big cities seem lacking in content.
