There was a guy in a discord chat I hang out in that never got any joke or reference because they were adamant about avoiding anything popular.
Ok... But now you can't join in on the conversation like 90% of the time because the rest of us are watching, playing and reading the same stuff and talking about it. Probably why I haven't seen him in the chat for months. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
I'm like this most of the time in public. Like, I've heard of that show or this movie but I rarely watch movies / shows on my own, I just don't find them appealing.
I could talk about most obscure videogames all day long though.
I feel that way sometimes, being here instead of on reddit.
Same here. Discord members posting teddit links and one person trying to grow a niche subreddit while I refuse to give Steve Huffman any more free human generated content.
I keep lamenting that Lemmy doesn't have any real action going on in specific video game communities like Reddit does, but it's not like I actually liked the discussions on Reddit because gamers on Reddit just seem to hate everything. Even the things they like.
