Bingo.
All the niche communities exist it's just that nobody comments or posts anything for months on end. I actually think that the existence of many of the same communities on different instances is the main hurdle here. Drawback of the concept of the fediverse I suppose but it does make the experience on Lemmy much poorer in that regard.
If there is no engagement there is no community. It is just a place.
I post regularly in some magazines, yet nobody reply or interact
Same here. It's content about a thing that I want to see. Even if I get little to no engagement, hopefully whoever stumbles upon it will be somewhat entertained.
This is a double edged sword. If we had enough people that the smaller communities filled out the main communities would be overridden with people instead of the small community feel we have now everywhere you go.
I'll take 1 10,000 user community over 10,000 1 user communities.
Redundancy is sometimes redundant.
What's the draw of having such a small community though? And why do you think that main communities would be overriden? Honest questions here I don't quite understand what you are concerned about. I personally think that it's the main problem with the fediverse right now, it's only flavorless general posts and nothing from small niche interest that drew me to reddit in the first place.
