Yes, but I’m talking about mass adoption. Very few users care, they want to scroll through and see stuff they like. They don’t want to curate and host and delve into the intricacies. Until such time as someone makes lemmy palatable, the masses won’t eat it.
Sailing. Boating. Sewing. Those are they tops ones I miss from reddit that had active users. Instead we have 7000 communities for linux and pervy anime.
Lemmy won’t catch on until there are groups of communities you can ban at once. Sports, Linux, German, pervy anime… It’s a very rare user who will put up with the absolute dreck of the initial feed and manually block communities until they have a feed that’s marginally personalized.
Then there’s the fact that any communities that are specific to peoples interests are completely empty.
I thought you’d like that. Speaking your language.
I’m rubber you’re glue. Whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you.
That was a statement of fact. I suggest you do some research into a thing called “discourse”
You have a shitty world view.
That’s what I was getting at though. Differing opinions are attacked around here. The lemmy “hive mind” is way more bullshit than reddit ever was.
My point has been proven. You fell right into my trap.
Gas stove >>> induction stove
Blocking communities is a full-time job in this place.
I’m liberal, but no techbro. Try saying something remotely luddite and watch what happens.
Put a Linux filter on and lemmy gets better.
I feel you. I don’t give one single fuck about Linux. My lemmy experience got better when I filtered out Linux across the board. The “hive mind” here is way more super-geek than reddit ever was. I’m a craftsman, just about the only reason I turn my computer Chromebook on is to send invoices. And that makes a lot of lemmy mad it seems. I feel way more like this guy here than I ever did on reddit.
I got quite a lot of socks and computer screen posts.
I’m that level of user that will block the ever loving shit out of everything but not do much to make it better. The problem is that once you’ve blocked everything you have pretty much zero interest in there isn’t much left on lemmy. Still better than reddit though.
