You can get an RSS feed of any sub, you can enjoy a small and specific topic without ever visiting the site itself.

Can I recommend r/abstractgames/ it's a very small community designing and playing games.

Less and less. I don't care about the larger subs - but even niche subs are getting silenced without breaking site rules. While activist subs that openly and actively brigade are left alone. There are less and less places to have conversations outside the Overton window. thedonald.win is good for a laugh, but voat and gab are just cesspools.

Yes, just unsubscribe to all default subs and sub to the communities that are relevant to your interests.

I use it only for NSFW content (mostly OC from real users).
