I'm still in it for niche hobby groups. Unfortunately the kind of information I'm looking for is hard to come by elsewhere. Even Reddit was not as good a source of community knowledge for these activities.

Facebook has lots of interesting groups for hobbies and other interests. Yes, you can find groups like that outside of Facebook but they’re often much smaller and less active (unless you go to Reddit).

Hawaiian bunker hobbies!

Who knows. Maybe one day Zuck will be chilling in his bunker and the next Krakatoa will erupt underneath him!
