If you care about American politics and being outraged at every and any thing thrown at you during the day, it is active enough. However you are SOL if are curious about any other topic that does not involve narcissistically talking about yourself.
Assuming you are invested enough to find or create a community for a topic you care about, be prepared to be talking to yourself for a long time and consider yourself lucky if you manage to get 2 other people commenting on it.
TRUE
Feels like it's just memes and specifically war and American politics
The only actually different communities I found were about ancient times and history posts (thank you for that by the way)
The big three are:
There are a couple dozen people who keep a smaller community alive (like PugJesus on history, anon6789 on owls, JohnnyEnzyme on euro graphic novels, LaurenceWolse on b movies, Nexius Lobster on traditional art, etc); occasionally someone takes over a community and starts posting regularly, and occasionally someone burns out and the community dies.
Yah I wanna contribute alongside pugjesus
Please do so, it's terribly lonely being the only poster some weeks DX
go for it, fam! Yeah, I think it's a lot more fun to be posting when someone else is already posting there. (instead of just posting by yourself.)
I made a meme about this a while ago on !fedimemes@feddit.uk
Definitely still relevant
