For me it’s the fact that I am one of approximately two people on Lemmy that has ever seen stuff like Haibane Renmei or Shin Sekai Yori, and there isn’t almost a decade worth of discussions about them to read on this platform. I could start communities for them, but I’m not cut out to moderate, and I’m not quite a big enough fan of either to justify taking on the role of a community leader
If I may ask, what is stopping you from discussing here on Lemmy ?
Effort!
I don’t usually want to contribute my own opinion. I just want to read other people’s and silently judge them if they disagree with me.
This is the way.
Also it helps to get super highly up voted opinions and then recycle them for my friends so they think I’m more insightful/smarter than i am.
Community sizes are much different.

oh hey, I must be the other guy
We should start a forum and argue about whether Squealer was right all along (he was) or what the walls actually represent (honestly idk)
Hey I’ve seen SSY too! That’s already three.
I don’t recall it perfectly but I remember the end result being pretty much an ESH situation rather than someone being “right”
