  I don’t necessarily want to feel superior, I think I just like when my communities are small and it’s a genuine rarity to find someone that likes, for example, the same subgenre of music. Finding someone that likes techno (for example) isn’t rare anymore, so it’s not a special event, y’know?

      And you wanting to avoid having niche interests is your desire to feel, ah so normal?

        I don’t avoid niche interests though. I just pick interests that interest me. Picking one for how popular or niche it was would be equally unworthy of snide remarks for sure.
