It’s not the same over here… I miss reddit. People on Lemmy are defeatet and/or want to go full world war 3, instead of uniting to prevent it. How many people on here are bots?.. How many on here are spies… I miss reddit. There were bad people over there too… But the majority were good. The majority were logical and united. I miss reddit. I think I don’t like Lemmy.
Go on. Tell me all the ways reddit sucks. Don’t give me hope of unification. Don’t stand with me. Just write the comment you came here to write.
I will say that I’ve only had Lemmy installed for a few days and I kinda feel the same way.
Mostly because I see the HUGE potential that Lemmy has, but right now, for the most part, it’s very quiet here. Maybe I haven’t found the right communities yet, but most posts I’m seeing don’t get very much engagement or discussion going. It feels like a ghost town here, which is sad because Lemmy feels like it has so much potential.
Lemmy is also confusing for non-techy users. I’m a software dev, and I find the federation part annoying and slightly confusing. It seems like every server has a ‘technology’ community, for example. Which one do I follow? I don’t have time to look at each one and see which has the most active and fun discussions. That’s the advantage that Reddit has: for the most part, it’s really easy to discover really active communities.
IDK, I just wish there was a way for Lemmy to feel less segmented, easier to discover actually active and fun communities, and had more users. I won’t leave, but I’m not feeling warm and cozy here so far.
I get that, it really is picking up. I’m making an effort to post in communities to try and get chatter going
And some are super pessimistic. But hey, be the change you wanna see I guess. I guess we’ll have to wait nad for people to spread the word.
