MODERATORS
Remember when r/AMA used to be about things like researchers in fields you aren't familiar with talking about things you haven't heard of before but found interesting. Or someone who had just accomplished something interesting. Then at some point it just turned into a PR mouthpiece for actors and celebs promoting their new whatever.
I used to be on a bunch of forums and communities for niche interests. Then reddit and facebook et al destroyed them, like the wal marts of the internet destroying local communities. I was genuinely friends with many online strangers, like real actual bona fide friends, and suddenly our local digital hangouts were destroyed. End of an era. I'd love for those to pop up again but I wouldn't know where to begin finding them now.
