      This is the reason. I can get all the Linux discussion I want on Lemmy, but discussions about an Acura RSX? That community does not exist here.

          Well that’s just not true…

          !fuckcars@lemmy.world

          We talk about how much better the world would be without cars. That qualifies as car talk, right?

        Yeah… I also miss doom-scrolling unixporn and ergomechkeyboards in here.

        Tbf, for me, that’s more of a forum territory. I wasn’t even using the subreddit for Aprilia motorcycles, but been on Apriliaforum for years

      There are some pretty basic communities that are non existent or dead on Lemmy and I hate it

        You can’t participate through RSS.

          Correct. Less engagement for them, still can get your fix of reading specific things. A read only option to lurk is better than missing everything.

            I suppose, but anything I’d consider a niche community probably has worthwhile discussions, questions, answers, etc. They aren’t read-only.
