Well, the new user bump has passed!
(lemmy.ca)
Now it's a matter of sustaining and slow growth. Hopefully. Best thing you can do to see Lemmy succeed is participate: comment, post, doomscroll All+Top Hou ;)
It'll take a while for some of the smaller communities to get critical mass. And that's okay, probably. Critical mass is here for the larger topics already. I'll do my best to help :)
I hear that, yeah the interest-specific communities haven’t caught up yet for sure. A lot of them have only a handful of posts if they do exist.
Definitely a lot of memes, but I feel like I am seeing a good amount of news though? Actually I feel like reddit was getting to be pretty spotty about news, there were a couple weeks I used both and lemmy consistently showed me the headlines much sooner.
I browse in compact mode on memmy and scroll past the memes usually fwiw, so it may just be a matter of my perception
Nor most of the local/regional communities.
