Not just number but quality. It was all memes at the start, now actual conversation is happening in more than just a few posts.
Good point! I’m hoping for some of the more niche communities to start becoming more active. Things are trending in the right direction though.
I’m dying with the lack of baseball communication. The biggest Baseball and Atlanta Braves communities are pretty much dead and I really miss talking ball.
Sports is definitely hard to have take off in these sorts of spaces, since sports are generally talked about much more amongst regular/casual users, than the more tech-savvy crowd who are willing to try these things out.
It's the same on the biggest ActivityPub platform (Mastodon) - the really popular regular subjects such as sports and cars just don't have a presence there.
