MODERATORS
This is one thing that Lemmy REALLY needs to work on. The hobby- and topic-specific communities need to grow. Lemmy is currently dominated by like 5-10 communities, which is fine, but it really falls short of the experience I had on Reddit in that regard.
In order for niche communities to have a sustainable flow of content, you need a massive amount of users overall. Another obstacle is that niche communities can't grow much because with barely anyone in them, nobody has any reason to go to them.
