Honestly I kinda like /c/neurodivergence for several reasons:

  1. I think that classifications of neurotypes are something not quite finished or maybe even fundamentally flawed. There is so much overlap, I like the label neurodivergence. It will outlast DSM relabeling.

  2. The community is small. One big group is better than many smaller groups.

Unfortunately I cannot respond directly to the person minorly criticising it. (Blocking Instances should be reserved for poor moderation causing spam, even if mine is nsfw)

I like the seperate autism community, because it does not have to be identical to whatever the current DSM criteria is.

Also the neurodivergence community has posts about ADHD, dyscalculia and dyslexia. That is sufficiently different enough.
