Sure. This wasn't meant to take away from anything else. I think at least theoretically, both can go along. It's just that it's more obvious with the niche things. But probably applies to all of the topics. And there is a demand to discuss all kinds of things and I think we have the potential to let the user decide what they're interested in... Whether that's popular/mainstream or not. It just takes people to talk to to be present... somehow.

Oh I am absolutely not saying you are wrong. I completely agree with you. I’m just saying while there is a lack of niche content there is also a lack of mainstream content. Which might sound contradictory, but I think both can be true at the same time.
