You know what? I think I’m okay with the fediverse simply never getting as big and popular as Reddit is/was. Over the years, as it got more popular, I definitely noticed that the average quality of interactions I had on Reddit slowly but steadily declined. Lemmy feels like old-school Reddit, which I am honestly pretty happy about.
That’s what I keep saying. I keep getting told I’m wrong though, that Lemmy needs to be easier to join, and hit critical mass and become the reddit killer because that’s the only way we can exist.
Like, no thank you. I’m happy with Lemmy NOW, I don’t need it to keep growing!
the only thing I miss from reddit are the niche communities
but that will come with time
Depends. If instances keep going into defederarion wars over philosophical beliefs it will become really tricky to have small communities. If I like some kind of bizarre miniatures, turtle crocheting, collectible wooden marbles, etc. I shouldn’t have to worry about whether the other person I want to talk to who collects toy unicorns is a “tankie” or not. As long as the communities are moderated enough, political philosophies shouldn’t be an issue.
