Ok , here we go.

I like lemmy a lot.

Mastodon and all the others are too complicated with too many dam options for threads. Not to mention I hate the Twitter layout.

Like look,

I want lemmy to have more users. The lack of engagement here is just beyond sad.

I’ve seen a lot of lemmy instances with like 1 user a month. Seriously? What the fuck?

I’m entertaining a thought to create a lemmy instance, but is there even a point? Should i even bother?

I feel like the issue with these reddit alternatives, is the LACK of content and users.

What do you think?

    politics of the devs but I think it means that lemmy instances generally attract a pretty narrow range of people.

    As long as lemmy.ml is considered the main lemmy instance, lemmy will for ever be a far left platform.

    Want to see cute pictures of cats? Not much here.

    There’s several cute communities, and since I’m subscribed to them instead of the most political communities - I see more cute cats than absurd political takes. By saying that lemmy isn’t for cute cat pic enjoyers, we’ll drive away those who want to post cute cat pics and make lemmy a place not for cat pics but heated and often aggressive political discussion.
