Is it better to find a niche or to create a community of sorts and how do both work exactly, so i created my account not to long ago and most places feel dead in a way but if i created my own place its not like i would get many people and i have some ideas but there kinda dumb or "Spicey" to say or somehting like that. im not even sure if i have the motivation to create and manage a community.

Search first and see if you find one that you like. I found a New Jersey one and was the first to post. Apparently it's on a "free speech" instance which some of its members were quick to point out to me, so I won't be going back lol. Hopefully, someone will start a better one. I don't belong to an instance that allows community creation and I don't really want to mod one either, so it probably won't be me.
