I loved my small community subreddits, which is why I'm trying to grow them here. Reddit has shown that it doesn't care about its users, which means that sooner or later those small subs will need to go elsewhere or be trapped on a site that just continues to get worse for its users. If you actually care about the communities you're a part of, and not just about the content they produce for you, then help grow and uphold them here.
I don't have anywhere close to enough time to actually be the person who starts and moderates communities. If enough people start them and start participating in them then I'll start participating again, but "be the change" only works when people have free time to do it. I would love for Lemmy to take off, don't get me wrong, but all I was saying is that it hasn't yet and the claim people try to make here that it's already good enough to replace Reddit is pure cope.
But you do have enough time to assume that your personal opinion on a matter speaks about everyone's else. It doesn't.
Chill out, I never said it did.
