I think that's normal. People will try out Lemmy but if they notice that the communities they frequent doesn't have a lot of content they'll just leave back to reddit.
We can hope for organic growth but it'll take a long time (especially with how big reddit is)
Like you said, big communities here have been pretty great, but the smaller communities I frequent on Reddit (Talking about genshin and Honkai subreddit which aren’t event small) are pretty dead here.
I talk a lot about the casual community of Reddit and how I wish Lemmy could attract those users. I see Meta as a way for this casual community to come here, but then again, Meta is bleh
Exactly. Ease of use can truly impact the growth of a platform.
Like, I'm sure most people on Lemmy are a bit tech savvy, but the overall user just want to make 1 account and be able to access everything.
Right now, Threads is doing a "good" job by integrating themselves with Instagram. Don't even need to create a new account if you have Insta, just pop in and start using it.
Still one of my most played song, the beat is too smooth
Yeah pretty much.
Like as much as I dislike reddit, they still have the communities I interact with the most.
Lemmy is cool but it's mainly techy and nerdy stuff that I'm not that into.
Yup pretty accurate (quebec)
Yess finally I loved sync for reddit. Can't wait to use this
Def want to see this movie. Should I take 70m or Imax?
At this point the Marketing is his name. Well respected director and last movie? Sign me up
It's def a good start, but like @simple said I wish they would bring it to PC. There's load of untapped potential here for good creations

Yeah, at least they’re making sure it works “fine” before selling you for 3500$
Thanks man
Yeah same, most communities i frequent on Reddit haven’t transitioned yet or is still tiny so I kinda juggle between the two apps.
Lemmy is nice for tech and nerdy subreddits but that’s pretty much it rnow
Pretty much this. It's crazy how bloated the app is with a 1000 ways to monetize the shit out of the user (reddit premium, reddit coins, shop, NFT???)
Like holy shit it's unreal how bad the main app is compared to a clean experience like Apollo and Memmy
Exactly, pushing people away is not how you grow a platform
Like, what happened to just downvoting low effort or low “quality” posts? Do we have to pass IQ tests to allow users on Lemmy now?
Underrated anime of the season
Super degenerate but at the same time has a lot of heart? Also liked that it totally embraced the “shitpost” nature of the show.
Def recommended, even with the meh animation
Oh nice! Been using the TestFlight version didn’t even notice it’s out
App is great so far. Good replacement for Apollo
I’m dumb lmao thanks for explaining
Yeah same. Mixed feelings about all of this

Don’t they already have a custom chip?
