I agree. Too much of Lemmy is just links to other content instead of people having thoughts of their own and then starting a discussion about it. There isn't a real reason to use Lemmy if there is nothing here that is not anywhere else.

There are a lot memes here so maybe those are often original.

Content aggregation is what reddit and lemmy are designed for.

Partially, but not exclusively. We will get enough of it regardless of anything so I'd wish people focused on also doing other forms of content.
