It's a lot easier to find conversations here. Vibes like reddit of 5-10 years ago. When communities get too big, the most popular gets pretty boring for people with niche tastes.

All communities get this way when they grow enough in size. There are only so many unique opinions to express on a subject, and a finite amount of interest someone will have to keep reading a thread. It essentially becomes a race to see who can express the idea first, and we have an easier time winning a race with fewer competitors.
