      Potentially interesting threads are often empty. It’s more like having 50k people in a metropolis and your going door to door to try to find them. Often they cluster around particularly popular spots and that’s it. Most of them are ghosts - they don’t post anything.

      The better analogy is 50K people are in a room, 80% of them are mute and deaf (they don’t comment so you can’t talk to them);10% have the complete opposite opinion and you don’t want to communicate with them; and the other 10% share your interests, but they are busy communicating with the other people. So at the end of the day you have 2% of people to converse with.

      2% of people finding your posts, upvoting, and interacting with you. Not much.
