Lemmy just reached a new milestone: 1 million posts, across 1,323 servers.
And 90% of them have been bitching about reddit, talking about reddit, or asking how we can make the fediverse more like reddit. I’d love to contribute more, but there is honestly very little in the way of content here outside of the reddit exodus, besides basic memes and nsfw bullshit pages which are already getting flooded with bots selling OnlyFans subs. People have talked about how much higher quality the posts are here, but I don’t see it at all.
Sounds like you need to curate your communities a bit more so your subscribed list works better for you. The memes on the front page are part of the organic growth of the site but there are tons of smaller communities with good stuff here that you can fill your front page with.
The number of posts and users is skyrocketing but we’re not reddit yet, we don’t have all the niche subs with 100,000 subscribing lurkers to drive visibility. If you’re missing an experience then it’s up to you to try to create it by posting what you want to see.
