There really needs to be some dedicated lemmy instances to gather/grow topical communities… I can’t quite wrap my head around why people set up topical mastodon instances rather than lemmys, given that local mastodon posts generally don’t stick to a topic.
Indeed. However, understand that Lemmy has like 100K people or so, while Mastodon is over 9 Million. Much easier to build a topical instance on a larger platform. Lemmy will have it's time soon.
@atmoicpoet@mastodon.social is creating a hosting platform that supports Lemmy called "Space Host". Once his platform releases, and it becomes much easier to run a Lemmy instance, we are going to see a lot of people here in the "Lemmyverse".
