Give it some time and maybe Lemmy will enter the top 10…

Well, it’s a marginal improvement I guess.

Lemmy won’t be too ten probably for a decade or more.

Social media platforms suffer from chicken and egg problems – need an audience to draw the content creators, and need content creators to draw an audience. If we get enough content, the network effects may allow it to grow.

But that isn’t just bots posting shit with no user interaction either. How many Lemmy communities start and die on the vine due to no interaction?

Anyway, I keep coming back to both Reddit and Lemmy, but I try to only post new content on Lemmy, and make an effort to engage :)

That’s good of you. We need more variety of platforms. Having one dominant player is a recipe for disaster as we’ve seen time and again

United Kingdom

!unitedkingdom@feddit.uk

Create post

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
