r/Piracy on Reddit is more of a meme subreddit. I've never seen any actual discussion or valuable information as I do on this community. Why is that?

Number of users and popularity. Plus not being able to seriously discuss it on reddit due to them potentially banning the sub.

I'm excited for Lemmy and other federated communities, because it allows places to stay smaller while still sharing posts and comments. That should help stop the effect of a single community getting super high traffic. Plus there is no karma/score so there's less incentive to spam low effort posts.
