Agree with you fully on this. Especially the fractured community’s. Most of the big ones have 2 to 3 different ones and they are all active just as much as the other. Gotta chose to just follow one or all of the pieces of the puzzle. For some of the more niche community’s I’m giving it a good thought on just making one of mine. I don’t really want that kinda thing but not having it is lame.
I used to use an iPhone simply because of the jailbreak community. When it became increasingly slower for a jailbreak to release I jumped ship. I got on iPhones around the time of iOS 7 and got off around 11.4.
