    It lacks the massive audience to bear non-nerd communities. The formula1 subs are not a patch on reddit, nor are the outdoorsy, camping and flashlight communities.

      Also more specific communities, even for the geeky stuff. For example gaming communities are decently active, but not much for specific games.

              I followed the bellow gamesnon reddit (excluding those that already have some communities on Lemmy (some reasonably active, some less so) or are almost dead games):

              Albion Online (community exists but empty).

              Ashes of Creation

              Book of Travels (this is super niche though)

              Kingdom Come: Deliverance (community exists but empty)

              New World

              Wayfinder

              V Rising (community exists but empty)

              This is actually a shorter list than expected, but have similar issue with other hobbies as well. Might hve missed some too.

      I think the f1 communities here are fine, they post all the big news and every comment thread doesn’t devolve into childish fanboyism!
