MODERATORS
Lemmy is at the moment a super busy tech/nerd/nd forum. If you have those interests you don't usually starve for content.
It's when you expect it to be like late stage reddit with millions of users sustaining niches comms that you get disappointed. Lemmy is like reddit in 2008.
It cannot cater to all interests yet but it is a place that people can validly migrate to as reddit enshittifies further
The more we foster a community of sharing the less dead the niches will fill.
The vast majority of lemmy users never post at all which sometimes makes it feel dead. We need more posts. If you’re reading this and haven’t made a post before I challenge you too. If you’re reading this and there is a niche community that doesn’t exist that you miss from reddit, I challenge you to make it here.
Please come to !fedigrow@lemm.ee for some advice. Quite a few communities get created then get abandoned a few weeks after, that's counterproductive as well
