(homeopathy) n. a complementary therapy based on the theory that ‘like cures like’. It involves treating a condition with a tiny dose of a substance that in larger doses would normally cause or aggravate that condition.

To add, a lot of sites that “Fade into obscurity” still have active communities, they’re just not mainstream anymore.
