I buy it if it's something I want to have in my collection long term, or if I might be wanting to play it regularly without them.

There are too many sets and spoiler season never ends. I mainly just follow now in case there are any good singles for updating my cube

Quite a few, actually

• Artisan Keycap collecting, to a lesser degree mechanical keyboards (I usually use them as displays to showcase my artisans)
• Boardgame collecting and playing. I'm a big fan of modern area control games. Also trying to design some. Slowly.
• I curate a magic the gathering commander cube. Hopefully mtgcube gets a community somewhere around here
• Reading, lots of fantasy there.
• EDM shows and festivals, recently. Probably have been going to too many, but I always jump in with both feet

Pretty much. Reddit is too big, and even these big subs going dark is only a drop in the bucket for what reddit is at this point. There's too much traffic on too many small subs, not even talking about all the porn subs still bustling with activity. The only thing people can do is move somewhere else and not get sucked back in.

This might be controversial but I really love Kingdom Death: Monster. It's an amazing work of insanity that no reasonable group would ever publish. Spirit Island gets an honorable mention.
