  That was over 30 years ago, longer than I’ve been alive. I just want niche communities to subscribe to (Cities: Skylines, model trains, Madison WI) instead of the constant barrage of generic politics, Linux obsession, and low effort memes.

    That was over 30 years ago

      Yeah, it’s happened multiple times that a community has reached critical mass such that normal people start joining and posting a variety of interests, rather than just non-stop posting about their super duper hardened non-fingerprintable hosted LibreWolf instance with VPN to prevent those dirty big tech companies from stealing their data. And general news and politics (Capitalism Bad™).
