I used to really enjoy reddit but find it toxic and too “mainstream” recently so I moved to Lemmy but it’s quiet and kept a lot of redditism. I’ve been enjoying reading HN daily but want to read more than 20-30 top posts. I like the general kind attitude and professionalism as well as the interesting topics.

#4Tildes and Lobste.rs.
And I’m hopeful for the Digg revival to take off in the right direction.

#5Mastodon and RSS feeds. I’m also trying to write more long form stuff, and that definitely helps keeping conversations going.
I check out Lemmy maybe once or twice a month.

#8Honestly, reddit. There is loads of garbage but some subreddits are just gold, like the data engineering subreddit.

#9Bluesky has some good content if you curate your feeds and algorithm (it's fully customisable). Also spend a lot of time on Twitter but I don't recommend it.
Reddit can be okay if you choose the right niche subreddits -- stay away from the main page subreddits. Among the niche subreddits, I find location-based subreddits and subreddits for podcasts to be good sources for unique communities.
