THIS. (Sorry, had to respond with a Reddit cliche)

Like you mentioned, the upside of communities for almost all niche interests is the thing that kept me there for years even after the front page went to shit. In addition to the things I was actively following, I really enjoyed stumbling into new niche subs and learning about something from a group of passionate experts by reading threads. Iโ€™m hoping we have that same sense of depth here soon too!
