What’s the draw of having such a small community though? And why do you think that main communities would be overriden? Honest questions here I don’t quite understand what you are concerned about. I personally think that it’s the main problem with the fediverse right now, it’s only flavorless general posts and nothing from small niche interest that drew me to reddit in the first place.
Bingo.
All the niche communities exist it’s just that nobody comments or posts anything for months on end. I actually think that the existence of many of the same communities on different instances is the main hurdle here. Drawback of the concept of the fediverse I suppose but it does make the experience on Lemmy much poorer in that regard.
Hey that’s actually the best answer. The best people to tell you what will fit the weather is the actual people living in said weather. While there is some overlap in some cases there is literally no-one more qualified than them to answer this question. Like I have plenty of experience with the Canadian winters but I really have no idea what a German can expect in Berlin.
I cannot stress this enough. They are owned by Hasbro. Last year was a massive win for both Dnd and Magic the Gathering yet they still layed off thousands of the people that made this possible. Even Sven Wincke of Larian who developed Baldur’s Gate 3 said he couldn’t even properly thank the DnD people he worked with because they were gone short after release. BG3 is probably the best game of the decade if not more and MTG is more popular than ever yet the people making them still get fired. Meanwhile, Hasbro and WOTC CEO’s personally made millions in salary and bonuses.
So no, you are not supporting workers and artists by buying their products. You are proving them right.
