Theres only so much one man can do to prop up a community. Reddit is still where you have to go for anything even remotely niche, since Reddit is thousands of times the size of the Fediverse. For example, if you wanted to get an alternative to the Dota 2 subreddit, you’d need a community maybe a 10th the size of Reddit’s Dota 2 community - equivalent to 5% of the Fediverse posting on a weekly basis. Right now, its roughly 0.0004% of the Fediverse, for reference.
