It's not about the platform but it's where most of the people are. There's just not a lot of people here, especially in relation to niche subjects.

There could be if people had / acted in accordance with any kind of principles of self respect. They’re ants in some rich mega douche’s ant farm, donating their time and energy to their captor, but refuse to make the fucking 6-inch journey to a free ant hill beside them.

Almost all of us are here because of the API bullshit. Those who stayed did us a favour, I reckon.

Tbf most of those are usually either lurkers or commenters. The people who post meaningful content are usually rare. But they used to be a lot more common in the early days though, I wonder what happened.
