"The Lisp community" is purely an imaginary construct that only exists because you want it to.

"Community" is largely a toxic concept anyway.

Oh, we have to have a community. Community this, community that. Nice project, but where is your community? I can't write a line of code without a community!

Tired of "community".

Nice to see that nothing has changed.

You're still seething with hostility with regard to the conditions of a Usenet newsgroup fifteen years ago that is only very lightly active now. Reddit has r/Lisp which is more active and very different from old c.l.l. (Not that it's reasonable to equate r/Lisp with "Lisp community", either.)

No seething or hostility here. I learned a lot from Lisp.
