The only thing missing on Lemmy is specialised communities. For everything about news and memes it's actually much more dynamic and interesting to interact here. Other than that, Reddit is basically only outrage and fake karma stories now.

    Ah no the historic amound of random celebrity tits too. If I want to see a naked celeb its reddit. Truly a wonder of humanity.

    And arguably time will fix that. Or like. Reddit pre 2020 as an encyclopedia type thing. Maybe am archived copy with Wikipedia type editing or something. Idk. It's absolutely dead now. Lemmy already "feels" better. And I was hopeful about Digg but it just feels like a facade so far. We'll see. Improvise, adapt, overcome.

  • It needs to grow for that. Right now Lemmy is just a news feed for me. Every small community Iโ€™ve found in areas that interest me is just too small to work. People barely post or comment at all, so theyโ€™re mostly ghost towns.

    The strength of Reddit is all its small hobby communities that are quite active but quite low on the outrage and viciousness. I still use Reddit for those because their Lemmy counterparts are not ready yet. I donโ€™t use large subreddits and havenโ€™t in over a decade, due to all the outrage and viciousness.
