Not quite. I think there’s a three-way distinction to be made here, between being (1) small (not many users), (2) niche-y (users are unusual in some way), and (3) creepy (users are unusual in some highly displeasing way). If LW “feels like a ghetto” for an “outcast subset of the population” that “lacks respectability”, I think that’s #2 or #3 rather than just #1, and I’m curious exactly what gworley has in mind.

I wouldn’t have come up with #2 and #3, but those are definitely related to the issue.
