Do you mean other than Reddit? I see multiple posts per hour on https://www.reddit.com/r/stephenking/, even multiple posts each day specifically about IT.
(I don't know how "expert" that is considered though)
The Threadiverse lacks content - it has like TV & movies, but usually communities based on a single (or two) TV series lacks content and dies off.
Here there is !movies@piefed.social that I think is the most active community, or even better to combine all movies & TV communities into one "channel" (Topic Feed) there is https://piefed.social/f/television, available only for Piefed not Lemmy (but your account is on PieFed.social so that will work for you).
I do not see even so much as a single post about Stephen King's "It" within the past half a year though, except this one https://piefed.social/c/fiction/p/1549073/giving-it-a-try, with zero comments and barely any upvotes.
The toxicity present in the Threadiverse is killing it off slowly, so I doubt you will find what you are looking for here.:-( (I would be happy to be proven wrong though)
I have only been on here for Hrs., done a lot of posting, & really only one-bad reply. So much better than horrible social media & most message boards have become, if they are not ghost towns or dead.
Yeah Reddit seems mostly bots these days, and people complaining about bots. I would presume the smaller more niche communities might be slightly better, though having to use the site is horrible.
Still, to find most news about what is going on, I do check there occasionally (weekly?), bc here most topics never get brought up or if they are then they don't get discussed.
The way I see it, here it is possible to have a discussion with someone kind and worth talking to, whereas on Reddit I've completely given up all hope (though sadly that is getting more rare here as well).
