r/Piracy on Reddit is more of a meme subreddit. I've never seen any actual discussion or valuable information as I see on this community. Why is that?

I won't ever be using social media on anything but my phone, and I dont have file sharing between my phone and other devices. So the best anybody will get from me is a picture of the screen.

That's patently false. If your device has internet, and your phone has internet, you have file sharing. Email it to yourself if you're too lazy to set up anything else. It takes like 30 seconds.

I'd argue that anything you could post that isn't worth taking that small bit of extra time isn't worth posting in the first place. If you want your discussion places to stay quality and attract quality content, then you need to put forth a bare minimum bit of effort. Communities already trend towards lower effort as they grow in size, there's no need to accelerate that to save yourself a few seconds.

Beyond that, setting up a file share on your home network isn't that tough if you have any interest in doing it.

You're missing the point. I don't send emails to and from other devices. And I have no interest in setting up file sharing, as I'm keeping my devices separate from one another. I consider my phone radioactive to my other devices for privacy/ legal reasons.
