Yeah, I’m 1000% community focused. In “niche” hobbies, you might have a few local people who participate. On Reddit/online communities, you have thousands. Their experiences are varied and provide insight not local to you. It’s just a way better way to have that community.

It also did a fairly decent job of providing news and updates. It had it’s shortcomings, but it was decent at aggregating and the community was fairly knowledgeable and able to give corroborating or opposing info as needed, which then would be corroborated or opposed. You were able to “go down the rabbit hole” in a linear, easy to follow fashion.
