Loving actually having conversations with people, instead of talking into the void where by the time you see a post it's already so old that commenting is useless

I love the concept of a federated network, it definitely feels way more punk than just being another data set for a corporation

I do wish a few of the more niche subreddits had similar communities here, but I'm trying to do my part by making that content

I don't have anything to add but in the spirit of actually engaging, I see your comment and agree!

Honestly if people just went and created the communities they miss from Reddit people will join up faster.

I think the whole creating a sub and modding it was for a specific type of person on Reddit. Will be interesting to see how easily that will flow over here.
