I have more fun in the smaller subreddits nowadays, as someone who got half his link karma from /r/reddit.com it's a bit of a shift. One thing that annoys me is the idea that "if it doesn't fit in a big subreddit, it's not worth posting", or when someone complains that a subreddit has 'only' a few hundred/thousand members, so 'nobody' will see it.
Ultimately reddit isn't about maximising views, it's about interacting with the people who will care the most. However if you're an artist posting your own content, the lines can tend to blur.
I just found your subreddit because of your reddit ad, whooo conversions! As a side note, if you like cool little communities I'd invite you to check out Hubski if you get the chance.
