It’s def a good start, but like @simple said I wish they would bring it to PC. There’s load of untapped potential here for good creations

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?
Underrated anime of the season
Super degenerate but at the same time has a lot of heart? Also liked that it totally embraced the “shitpost” nature of the show.
Def recommended, even with the meh animation
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)
Yup, at the end of the day I feel like most of the casual reddit community does not give 2 shits about how bad this whole ordeal is and just want their daily fix of content. I’m guessing it’s mostly new users too, since they’re already used to the new app.
It sucks but hopefully sites like Lemmy get up to pace
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
Ya agreed, I wish YouTube would’ve just pushed it as another app instead of forcing it down the main YouTube users throats.
Like, I don’t even mind short tiktok like videos, but yeah I don’t go on youtube for that
Yup pretty accurate (quebec)
