Yeah pretty much.

Like as much as I dislike reddit, they still have the communities I interact with the most.

Lemmy is cool but it’s mainly techy and nerdy stuff that I’m not that into.

Yess finally I loved sync for reddit. Can’t wait to use this

Def want to see this movie. Should I take 70m or Imax?

At this point the Marketing is his name. Well respected director and last movie? Sign me up

I think that’s normal. People will try out Lemmy but if they notice that the communities they frequent doesn’t have a lot of content they’ll just leave back to reddit.

We can hope for organic growth but it’ll take a long time (especially with how big reddit is)

Yeah same, most communities i frequent on Reddit haven’t transitioned yet or is still tiny so I kinda juggle between the two apps.

Lemmy is nice for tech and nerdy subreddits but that’s pretty much it rnow

Exactly, pushing people away is not how you grow a platform

Like, what happened to just downvoting low effort or low “quality” posts? Do we have to pass IQ tests to allow users on Lemmy now?

I’m dumb lmao thanks for explaining

Yeah same. Mixed feelings about all of this

Like you said, big communities here have been pretty great, but the smaller communities I frequent on Reddit (Talking about genshin and Honkai subreddit which aren’t event small) are pretty dead here.

I talk a lot about the casual community of Reddit and how I wish Lemmy could attract those users. I see Meta as a way for this casual community to come here, but then again, Meta is bleh

Don’t they already have a custom chip?

Exactly. Ease of use can truly impact the growth of a platform.

Like, I’m sure most people on Lemmy are a bit tech savvy, but the overall user just want to make 1 account and be able to access everything.

Right now, Threads is doing a “good” job by integrating themselves with Instagram. Don’t even need to create a new account if you have Insta, just pop in and start using it.

Yeah people just want an alternative to Twitter. As long as it does the primary function (tweet) and has the users, it will grow.

Ya pretty much double-edge sword

On one hand, Instagram users can bring a ton of content, which “should” be good for the overall website

On the other, it’s Meta lol

Lowkey it’s pretty garbage lol.

But it’s by Facebook and a lot of people are already joining it. I feel like if anyone can compete with twitter it’ll be them (even though I genuinely despite Zuck)

From what I understand, hot is supposed to be like Reddit where they show up posts that are gaining traction in the day.

But yeah it’s pretty buggy right now, been seeing a lot of old posts too

So is fediverse basically a bunch of servers, and Lemmy and Mastodon are like, different interfaces to access those servers? (I’m not sure I understand how fediverse works)

I like Lemmy for the more serious conversations. Still think it’s missing a lot of “casual” communities but that’s something that hopefully comes later.

Truly hoping for performance improvement. I’m getting so many complains from users at work because of teams low performance

Damn it’s like whoever is taking these decisions has no idea what he’s doing
