For anything mainstream, Reddit isn't very useful anyway unless you enjoy perpetual outrage. For niche topics, you can hopefully find a bulletin board somewhere run by those actually interested in the topic. Unfortunately, Reddit has sucked the air out of the room for many of these types of topics since it is seductively simple to set up a sub-reddit for your community before realizing all of the downsides to using reddit. Facebook Groups is an in-between alternative but relying on Facebook is as bad (if not worse) than relying on Reddit.
