People are so interested in finding alternatives to the systems that we hate, and actually are passionate about supporting those things and developing them into useable and enjoyable platforms.

People are interested in spreading the word about the importance of unions and the climate crisis. Idk if those posts just get squashed on reddit, but I've seen SO much more talk of workers rights and informing others about them.

It just gives me hope about the future for once. Like things are happening that are different, and I know that we can't be silenced here. This is a platform by the people, for the people, and that can't ever be fully taken away.

I agree, but I just wish it was easier to find interesting communities. Sorting by "hot" definitely dredges up more content, but they're all like 0-5 comment posts. Sorting by active shows the same few posts for a few days. I've been trying to sub to communities that seem interesting in "hot" content, but there just doesn't seem to be a lot of content yet? I may just be spoiled by the scale of reddit, but this seems fairly low and feels a little empty.

Am I just missing good communities? Is there somewhere to find them? Or are we still just really "too early" where most content is only getting 5-10 comments?
