I feel like having many communities works well on large platforms, but on smaller ones it fragments the already limited content, which in turn makes most communities inactive and reduces engagement.

I actually believe this would have been the best way to start it. Just a general community and if enough people like something make a general community about that. stay as general as possible and only get specific as the audience for it grows. its to late for that but I do feel no one should make a community unless they are passionate about that thing. can fine a few others who are passionate and commited to running the community. I don’t think anyone should really be running more than one community or instance. This to me is why you get all the dead ends. I feel like there is this group that feels like they can trick a community into being. make a community and post like crazy and in a few days or weeks all sorts of people will join and start posting and then they can abandon it and it will continue on. Jut does not work that way.
