    Reddit had so many users that hyper specialisation was possible.

    There was a subreddit for every tv show. And people are coming here expecting the same. I think we’ll see similar content but a bit less niche.

    For instance instead of a community for every tv show it might be better to just post about any tv show in /c/television

    I used to follow /r/pizza but I’ve seen tons of home made pizza photos in /c/foodporn

    For most niche topics you can probably think of a more general community which will help drive content and critical mass.

      Only way to grow these communities with niche topics is to interact with them yourself. If you want c/pizza to grow, post content and interact in it!

        I only ever posted like 3 times in the last 10 years on Reddit, but I realized that in order to see this community grow I’ll probably have to step up and start posting stuff too like what others have been doing for me.
