This is the reason. I can get all the Linux discussion I want on Lemmy, but discussions about an Acura RSX? That community does not exist here.
TF2, a very popular game, is barely present here! Let alone niche indies!
Tbf, for me, that's more of a forum territory. I wasn't even using the subreddit for Aprilia motorcycles, but been on Apriliaforum for years
There is zero car talk on Lemmy and it fucking sucks ass.
Well that's just not true....

We talk about how much better the world would be without cars. That qualifies as car talk, right?
There are definitely high-IQ car guys and they are soul of car forums/reddits. But based on my observation of the diagnostic and critical thinking skills of the other 90%, they are probably never going to figure out how to use Lemmy.
And somehow we need both types (maybe for sample size?) in order to have a thriving niche community about anything.
Yeah... I also miss doom-scrolling unixporn and ergomechkeyboards in here.
