For me, there isn't a specific sub I would like to bring over per se. It's more the people.

My point is, I used to be able to go into a thread starting with "what's your favourite bread" and the top comments would be discussing which submarine could stay under water the longest, because thats just the way the discussion evolved.

Now, all I get is "this thread is locked" or some boring answer thats in no way related to the titles question in the first place (lawyers/bakers/delivery men/women of X, whats the X time your job involved X? "I'm not X, but etc")

I hope Saidit would bring a fresh breath of air in that department, but only time will tell.

Think our problem is that there still aren't enough people. What are the unique advantages of a small community?

I don't know if it's "unique" but for me, its the predictability. With a small dedicated community, you sort of know that the people that are there, are truly interested in the subject and not just there to shitpost.

On the other hand, with a larger community, the chance to learn something new grows exponentially, but you also run the risk of adding certain peoples opinion/shitposting, that you were trying to avoid in the first place.

Agree. Large communities means that, statistically, there will end up being decent content - even if there's relatively more shitposting.

allot of my subs would require more people in order to have content but.

hunting- self explanatory

camping- personal pics of camping relatedness

campinggear- showing gear and questions of gear

vedc- (vehicle every day carry) stuff that you should have in case of emergencies

publicfreakouts- self explanatory(videos only)

mexican or latino- self explanatory

justrolledintotheshop- vehicle atrocity pics that mechanics face everyday

wewantplates- pics of abysmal serving dishes rather than using a normal plate, bowl, cup, or utensils.

holdmy beer, cosmo, pacifier, ect.- videos/gifs of people inebriated thinking it's a great idea end up horribly.

badcopnodonut/goodcopgetdonut- cops doing bad and great things.

amibeingdetained- "right to travel" types being detained.

In the future, I will create more anime, motorsport, and cyberpunk-related subsaidits.

Next is cyberpunk.

I would like to see more evidence based nutrition and anything related to pursueing something with evidence. I don't see a lo of subreddits dedicated to proving topics/discussions with real evidence

I'll see what else....
