Phillies fan checking in. Agree.
I have a community with a bot that posts game updates like Reddit (which is nice) but the game threads are mainly me posting once or twice and one or two other people with side off comments. No community engagement so to speak. Long way from the Reddit game threads of several thousand comments.
Feel your pain. I'm constantly thinking, what the hell do I have to do to get r/orioles to follow me over to Lemmy to grow the numbers? They are one of the only things left at Reddit that I regularly look at. But 99% of the mod and user base there just doesn't care about the the issue.
Conversely, that means that at least sports spaces are among the least bot-spammed places on Reddit. So there's that.
