Not that it is not interesting but I would like just a tad more variety on the front page.

Edit btw for those who are wondering the two communities I started are https://lemmy.world/c/newmusic and https://kbin.social/m/musicfeedback/microblog (not sure if I have the links correct for people)

Come on, the Reddit drama is juicy AF to talk about. It's why I'm here. Don't gatekeep bro.

Already have more posts and comments than my 12 year reddit history. I'm trying my best to adapt and survive.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

I’m tired of the Reddit and fed drama. Ready to move on.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Well said. Thank you.

You know, I tried creating content about animal facts and nobody read it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Do we already have a list of subreddit replacements on lemmy, kbin etc. somewhere?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

No, I think it kind of goes against what we're trying to do here - if a list like that became popular, it would supercharge the growth of certain communities

There's a lot of people pushing for that because it would make the site a straight Reddit replacement, but the promise here is a lot like the original promise of Reddit - give users a single place they can go to access a bunch of small forums

If someone makes a community for that purpose or a community wants to draw in all the Reddit refugees, I have no problem with that, but I think the growth would be healthier if people find them organically rather than putting a centralized list somewhere

Sites will start to pull in a community if any of the members on that instance sub to it and there's talk of adding the ability for communities to band together in multis

Yes, give me a moment and I'll link it

Edit: Here it is, this is an explorer for Lemmy: https://lemmyverse.net/

I'm in support of this. I was explaining to my wife just a bit ago that most of the "content" on lemmy and kbin is all about lemmy and kbin, and very little about anything else. For those of us coming from reddit, most of the content on reddit isn't about reddit. I'd like it if lemmy and kbin was mostly original content.

If you’ve got any puzzling items around, post them to What is this thing? for us to work on. New content is very welcome!

Yeah I agree, Lemmy needs to be it’s own thing and not just a Reddit hate platform. But so far the experience has been great.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

We need to be POSTING!!!!

Does anyone know how long it takes to create sign up to the lemmy.ml instance? It seems impossible right now.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Afaik they have currently suspended new signups

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Thanks for the feedback. Seems impossible to sign for the instance.
