Having a culture in the first place would be a good start.

Different instances tend to have their own cultures, you might want to go instance hopping.

With this amount or active users it's not sustainable. I'm interested in broad topics and I try to chase the most active community for the topic, no matter the instance that hosts them.

The only meaningful sign of "community" I managed to identify is the tanky one, where it's palpable a radical difference with the very generic "everywhere else".

Start participating in smaller instances then, if Hexbear can do it, why can't you?

Because I am but a single person, comrade.

Find an instance you like, and be the change you seek.
