There's an Aztec city building game called Tlatoani. It's in early access, but has enough meat on the bone that it's one of my goto games.

Out of curiosity I checked Steam DB for active player numbers. I have discovered at any given point I am 10% to 25% of the given player base BY MYSELF. I am 1 of 4 people playing this game right now in the world. With the prevalence of the internet I always assume whatever weird bullshit you're into there's at least a thousand people talking about it; making memes outsiders could never comprehend. It's actually novel to fly under the radar for once.

What do you do that doesn't have a community associated with it?

If I was an Apple user it would be the Orion browser. There's just no downsides to it other than it being only available for Mac and Iphones.

Everything else i have to add disclaimers when talking about them. For example, I use Brave as my daily driver and I've had an easier time getting other people to switch to Brave than any other browser becuase having an awesome adbocker integrated into the browser itself is just that good. However, Brave is run by crypto bros, so it comes packaged with a crypto wallet and some AI bloatware. Thankfully there's a setting to turn the integrated crypto ads off, but the fact that those things are there at all is a BIG red flag. But it's an easier sell to normies because it's built on Chromium and works with the Google ecosystem in a way that Firefox-based browsers don't.

I would love to push Librewolf more, but it doesn't have a mobile version, and apparently installing UBlock Origin on your own is just too scary for the normies. So now wherever I meet a person and see they have an IPhone, the next words out of my mouth are "Have you heard of the Orion browser?"

When I find out a thing I like is the preferred option of someone whose niche fixation is that type of thing, it gives me life.

All I really want from the internet is to have a council of difficult nerds telling me what all the best shit is so I can become the perfect being.

I'm never leaving Lemmy lmao

Yes, absolutely, 100% yes. Using Orion + Kagi is absolutely the best change I’ve ever made to my browsing experience on Mac.
