>the trick is to stick to ~~small~~ niche subreddits.

I think generality is more of a problem than size. The more general a subreddit's topic, usually the more of a cesspool it is.

The more specific and niche, the more likely it is to be focused, informative, and useful. Also the better moderated it tends to be, as the moderators are intensely interested in the topic and doing it as a labor of love.

That's a great observation, clearly the size is not the only factor.
