Yeah, I stopped going there regularly a few years ago like most people on Lemmy, but I still occasionally go there for niche topics I can't find anywhere else. I only lurk, not post, so I just used old.reddit.

I tried using it this week after they turned off old, and holy shit!! It is unusable. Like you said, it's impressive how bad it is.

    Honestly what would it take to get more people on lemmy. I only found it by someone saying the boost for lemmy app. I didn't understand the rest of the technical jargon. But it works. Just the interests I have there are either no subs for or very few users.

    Banning valuable subs like piracy, emulation, and roms would get at least those people. The subs that provide valuable guides and resources like that would have to get purged for users to be forced to seek out alternatives.
