I know Kbin will grow in time but I miss how huge Reddit was.

That intimacy was still available on Reddit, but you needed to dig into the niche subs to find it. Commenting on large subs was definitely a cup of water in the ocean feeling.

Oh absolutely--that's really the only reason I was able to stay on reddit. I do miss some of those smaller communities, but have resorted to actual forums now (if applicable), or just going without.

Niche sub is just another way of saying echo chamber. Reddit was shit, every part of it

Right. Those damn knitters and their echo chamber of knitting tricks.

I dare you go say an unpopular opinion in a knitting sub, lets see how good it goes for you

Post something that is clearly crochet

And wow, those doctrinaire twits on /r/fountainpens were to hard to bear. So I like Hongdian pens. Sue me!

Try telling them knitting sucks and they should be crocheting.
