Pretty much none of the communities that I used to browse on Reddit are active here, so I wouldn't mind more people here.
I agree. Some communities are missing. But I fear to see the toxicity of reddit replicated here. I wish we can avoid this.
I agree, but in my experience the focused communities that I liked to browse on Reddit were almost never toxic. The difference may be that I deliberately went to the specific communities that I was interested in; I generally never just browsed Popular, where I'm sure the bulk of the toxicity was.
Unfortunately the communities that I'm interested in have next to no activity here, so I would definitely like to see more users.
