Niche communities aren't taking off as well as I'd like, but I've enjoyed these past few months on my different accounts.
However, I've recently noticed an increase in the kind of behaviors that made me quit Reddit in the first place (more trolls, brigaders, smarter/holier-than-thou types, you name it...) If this trend doesn't pass, or worsens, I'll have to expand my blocklist or just be more active on my accounts made on instances blocking those I see as problematic. That's a good point for Lemmy when you think about it; just having to jump ship instead of abandoning sailing altogether.
