Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn’t the thing that makes a social media site, it’s the engagement

So even if you’re used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they’re more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they’ll just go back to reddit

    I’ve been looking for a viable alternative for years but nothing has ever stuck. Lemmy seems like it’s got enough community already that there should be some staying power.

    Bringing spez back on as CEO was one of the worst decisions Reddit has made. kn0thing leaving was the last cliff too before the whole thing really went downhill.

    Fuck spez for killing Apollo.
