I am having trouble with the absence of centralized communities. For many many topics communities seem to exist on multiple instances and that splits up the user base and discussions it seems. I get that it is an inherent part of the design, but it hurts my experience.

Also the number of users seems to be too low still to create a lively environment. I hope that changes but so far the number of posts and comments on those posts seems a bit low compared to what I was used to.

Having said all that, I love the app (I am using voyager) and the general vibe of the people on here. Let’s hope on more users and a continued constructive community!

What topics are you interested in? Usually there is a more active community, and then smaller ones.

For instance for movies:

https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=movies&order=active can help to discover those, usually weekly or monthly active users is a good metric.

This post can help as well: https://lemm.ee/post/57443076
