How often do you check Lemmy? (discuss.online)

I remember when I was on Reddit I would check it several times a day. But with Lemmy there doesn't seem to be that much content popping up to justify that. I'm finding myself less addicted to the platform genre.

How often do you check Lemmy? What do you subscribe to that keeps you coming back?

It seems like everyone enjoys Lemmy for the quality of content rather than the amount. People also seem to engage a lot more on Lemmy. There are just a lot less of us so maybe that's why it seems less full of content.

I don't filter All very often, perhaps that's my problem. I'm stuck on my own island of content.

I spend most of my time in All. You get a lot of varied content. If you filter by Active, you see where conversations are happening.

There are definitely less people and therefore less niche content. About 50k active Lemmy users across all of Lemmy, vs 200M on reddit. But you get to know specific users here, if you find the right conversations.
