The thing is people want something where they have lots of communities like they do with Reddit. The ease of going there and finding something that is interesting for you is super easy. Switch it out with niche forums andit now becomes checking each niche instead of seeing what pops up. Multiple accounts multiple urls.

Realistically, most Reddit users don’t want that and won’t migrate to smaller niche communities. Smaller niche communities that currently exist are way better than the Reddit versions 9/10.
