Unfortunately, the more noche your hobbies, the less lemmy is able to replace Reddit. Stuff like news, gaming, politics? Lemmy is great. Do you want a community for an obscure martial art? Then you go to old school forums or Reddit.
It's true I lost out on some of the engagement for a number of my hobbies. I'm less in touch than I was.
Turns out I can manage like that just fine, though, so...
Niche gaming is really rough too. I sim race, there’s maybe a million people worldwide who consistently engage with the hobby. The subreddits were already quiet, and on Lemmy there’s like 4 active users over the last few months.
I’ve found myself on Reddit a lot more recently cause I want to be in the know about what’s happening.
