Niche activities or are always the best friend catchers. As it automatically filters out anyone not interested.

Anyone who does chat would immediately have a common interest.

Because it's niche, there tends to be original or unique ideas, making connection easier.

That being said, you can't hide your identity and sing it loud and proud to any and everyone. My blog is anonymous so there's no friend catcher effect.

Agreed. A number of years ago I started a small hobby business in a niche. It has been a great friend catcher.
