I'd rather be in a cafe than a cafeteria.

Me too, but just because the platform is a cafeteria doesn't mean individual communities can't be a cafe. With a large userbase comes the growth of niche communities, which is currrently what I miss most from Reddit.

yeah, i really miss my local sub from my city. it was a nicer way to share and learn about stuff happening around me than just the local paper. i also wonder how the duplicates between instances will pan out. the fragmentation of pretty small communities isn’t great imo.

i am happy to be here with all you losers tho. thanks for having me.
