Ok , here we go.
I like lemmy a lot.
Mastodon and all the others are too complicated with too many dam options for threads. Not to mention I hate the Twitter layout.
Like look,
I want lemmy to have more users. The lack of engagement here is just beyond sad.
I’ve seen a lot of lemmy instances with like 1 user a month. Seriously? What the fuck?
I’m entertaining a thought to create a lemmy instance, but is there even a point? Should i even bother?
I feel like the issue with these reddit alternatives, is the LACK of content and users.
What do you think?
Yeah I think lack of content and engagement is a problem.
I agree in many ways with the politics of the devs but I think it means that lemmy instances generally attract a pretty narrow range of people. Want to talk politics and tech? Lemmy isn’t bad. Want to see cute pictures of cats? Not much here.
I think it also doesn’t help that the native app for it isn’t great. I can’t get jerboa to login and lemmur has some seriosy ux issues.
Facts. I’m actually using the web version because the apps are just less convenient.
I’m using Jerboa right now without problems. For me Jerboa is more organized than the Reddit oficial app

As long as lemmy.ml is considered the main lemmy instance, lemmy will for ever be a far left platform.
There’s several cute communities, and since I’m subscribed to them instead of the most political communities - I see more cute cats than absurd political takes. By saying that lemmy isn’t for cute cat pic enjoyers, we’ll drive away those who want to post cute cat pics and make lemmy a place not for cat pics but heated and often aggressive political discussion.
Any cute cat communities you’d recommend?
