I completely agree. What’s more, none of my hobbies have a lot of posts. I myself am an occasional poster at best and I’m not interested in being one of at most 4 people posting in those communities. I’m thinking about finding a third party or otherwise foss or just better reddit client and just browsing.
Lastly, it’s fucking impossible to avoid politics on lemmy, american politics especially. Even in communities that I wouldn’t say are explicitly political, people find ways to squirm in some bullshit. I’m tired, boss. Mostly I’m tired of people being ugly to each other.

I agree. While 99% of the Star Trek stuff is humor, and most of the stuff posted here (outside of politics) is as well, I feel you. We’ve done great things covering hockey and F1. It’s just that this kind of platform tends to attract a very specific demographic. If you don’t see communities that fit your interests, I am willing to help you create and foster them.
