I quit in bfa when my guild stopped raiding, came back for shadowlands, and while having a miserable time in the middle of a LFR I thought to myself “why am I playing this?” Then quit because it was just a checklist of chores I didn’t really enjoy.

Nearly every niche community I’ve joined has essentially died due to not having the critical mass of users to support that community. Hell, even look at the large states like California or Texas: they’re communities with only a few hundred active users and maybe a couple thousand joined. Feels like the lemmy is mostly us politics, star trek, Germans, and memes.
