How many communities are you subbed to? (lemmy.world)

I've been on Lemmy for 12 days apparently, feels like a lifetime! And I keep seeing posts about how it's too empty or there's no content outside of the Reddit drama or whatever.

So it got me thinking, am I just subbed to way more stuff than most? Because I go into the "all" tab maybe once a day, and keep busy in "subscribed" the rest of the time.

Here's my stats:

121 Lemmy communities
42 Kbin magazines
163 total

That's for this account, although I also have a second account for slightly different topics so there's probably another 20-30 or so unique subs on there.

How about you?

Hah, I was thinking the same! If I hadn't seen your sub number I would probably have remained silent for fear of being weird.

I do really enjoy looking through the magazine list/recommended communities and finding new places, so that definitely contributes to the number.

Yep. Some of those speculative adds might take off one day and I want to be there to see it 😄

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You and me both! I'm starting to think maybe I should post something to them in the meantime, hopefully I get some good ideas soon

If in doubt, honestly just some kind of vague "everyone introduce yourself by answering some basic question about your relationship with this topic" seems to have gone down well in most of the niche ones I'm in.

Brilliant idea, I'll have to try it!
