I hope we get better content. I'm really tired of all the posts on the frontpage being meta. Like i had to scroll to find anything about the student loan news. I go to reddit and boom I get actual content still.
.. i want conversations about things that aren't lemmy or reddit. .. memes are cool but man most of the frontpage that isn't meta is memes. .. Fingers crossed it gets better soon.
I agree... but this is probably the last big reddit thing for a while, so I think the reddit and lemmy stuff will die down from now
I'm posting often in foodporn and my little communities.
I joined Lemmy during the blackout. Obviously it was crazy for a few days, but the last week and a half has been news, memes, and real conversations. Really enjoying it here so far!
It'll come. Early days of reddit I remember being annoyed at all digg posts.
It’s a lot better once you start subbing to groups instead of just browsing the front page.
The “hot” front page STILL has posts from days ago.
I give it 3 days before people cave and go back. People will always find a way to get their dopamine fix. If lemmy doesn’t have what they want, suffering through the shitty Reddit app will be a cakewalk compared to giving up the habit altogether
