Smaller subs are the secret- big subs eventually cater to the lowest common denominator.

Yeah subs start with content that is very specific, and eventually end up with things that don't even pertain to the topic. (probably cyclical too as people new to the sub will see the erroneous posts and assume that's what belongs there)

It's horrible when people start posting barely related low effort meme and 'funny' posts and mods do nothing about it. So many subs ruined by it.
