preYeah, I keep saying this to people when they worry about fragmentation. Like it's important to have all the Baseball fans in the same Baseball forum under one big banner.
No, that's not better, that's worse. What you want is a thousand interconnected forums with 100 people each, not a forum with 100,000 people.
How is community engagement better in a interconnected forum compared to a single forum consisting of all the participants? I'm asking out of ignorance
How would cross community discussions take place?

id disagree, this dynamic exists on discord with thousands of communities and hundred's of redundant servers. What you are seeing as "people" is mostly "folks Stockholmed by reddit"
