Gaming, news, tech, general literature. All of these are somewhat thriving, with a steady influx of posts and comments. At the same time, the userbase is sorely lacking for more niche communities. In my case it'd be stuff like poetry, yoga, religion, linguistics, meditation. Or many other communities I'd doubt they'd form a larger userbase here, at least to the degree that it'd foster good discussions. Communities where there are a larger amount of "normal people", that are not tech-aware, and who have no interest in migrating off centralized corporate solutions. That just want a large space to discuss what they're interested in.

This for me at least, makes it hard to completely leave reddit (or even Facebook and their groups!). Do you think the fediverse will ever reach the point where this would become a non-issue?

I created a place for model trains: @modeltrains / [email protected] (on Lemmy, if that link doesn't work you should use the search button by your username to look up https://kbin.social/m/modeltrains).

Congratulations! You get to help found those niche communities in a new place!

Speaking of those large subs. Does anyone have the equivalent of world news, news, and games subreddits here?

I found a technology one, just need to grab those other ones. Links appreciated.
