by your ask it seems that you had a few share of bad experiences with people with so called niche interests, and though there are assholes everywhere I do recommend having a few friends with very specific interests.
Something I like to keep in mind is that my interests are not fixed, in fact in most cases it's something that it's shared and developed among a community of people. i've introduced my friends to some of their favorite music, and there are tv series I've only watched because my mom suggested to.
I'm not a film buff by far, and I have met a lot of annoying ones, but some of my most beloved friends are really into films, and dedicate a good time of their lives to their hooby. I love listening to them talk, and learn about the effort they go through to watch a specific movie, sometimes they have to test lots of torrents or find a physical copy in most random place in the world. Lucky for me, because of them I don't have to commint the same energy, they share their drives with me, invite me to festivals I had no ideia existed etc. I don't like nor watch everything, but it's so nice when we leave a movie theatre and exchange our different perspectives.
All of this to say that you don't have to prove yourself when it comes to your interests because all knowledge is shared, the world is yours to discover at your own pace with the people you enjoy the most.

We all pick up small habits and advice from the people we love that make our experience, here on earth, more enjoyable and abundant. Once we open ourselves up a little and talk to others, we realize that we have more in common with people than we think. And meet people who, like you, share those same interests. And if not, you can at least interchange opinions and perspectives and learn from that in someway for your personal growth.
I love when I’m going on about my day and someone recommends me a song they like, a book to read or a new place to eat. Having an app like letterboxd where I can connect with people that also like movies and expand my interest. How I discovered how much I like mate because of a girl I was with. How I cook some meals a certain way, because I enjoy them being prepared like that by my mother. How my friend and I go together to as many coffee shops as we can because we love that shared space. And I could go on… it’s interesting and beautiful seeing how there’s a little of each of us in one another.

It occurs to me... that the posts I most connect with are ones where people unfurl their weirdo habits, values, inner lives (i love the "crush" genre of pi posts), ways of living, likes, dislikes, life philosophical points of view etc. I do treasure proper recs with an object, i.e. a new record or book or 8 hour youtube video, but I find myself really moved when someone shares how they live a good life. appreciating!!

I used to try to only read “smart” books and thought way too hard before reading a book. and now I can’t stop reading fantasy novels because I’m having just so much fun.
