I couldn’t care less about sports, but for me a similar thing are gaming subreddits. Not the general ones, we have plenty of those on fediverse, but subreddits dedicated to specific games, all with active communities and always up to date with game news. I do not care about Nitendo or current AAA game drama, I care about one or another indie PC game I play and Reddit had communities around those.
And /r/ukraine for up-to-date war news. Fortunately Mastodon seems to provide some of that.
Similar 2 things for me
