Have you tried being more in to US Politics, Linux and Privacy? I've found several very vibrant communities for those here.

Yeah, I think the main issue with that is both people watching the All feed and then complaining they get to see all the posts about all topics. And also people asking their Linux questions on c/asklemmy and other general purpose communities. I've given up on the US politics, though. That's something we currently all have to go through. Remedy might be a keyword filter or turning off internet and TV for the coming weeks.
