No, it depends on the number of community subscriptions. Still not nearly the firehose that is Telegram.
How does one use Telegram for content? I thought it's just a chatting app.
Yeah, content is lacking. I haven't tried telegram but my fear is that it will be the same issues reddit had for me. Too much content so I just sat there all day sucking from the content teat. The conteat if you will.
You can check your favorite subs daily and not be overwhelmed by content. It's a nice thing
In the early 2000s there were a couple of different forums I liked, so once a day I’d walk over to the library to use the internet and catch up. I’ve missed having that kind of healthy relationship with the internet, haha.
It's probably not going to last.
Yeah I Look at all most of the time and return way less frequent. But it scratches my itch for content enough that I stay and enjoy that stay.
Breaking free of radicalizing algorithms and agenda driven rage farmers will feel weird for a while. There's a process of recovery when healing from any destructive addiction.
It's ok
I do appreciate it but I also notice that a lot of content is not getting moderated resulting in low quality posts/spam.
Yeah, that happens. As more mod tools come out I'm sure that will get better with time.
To be perfectly honest, no :(
Reddit is just so incredibly massive, there's always something new and interesting to find in /r/all
I hope one day that lemmy can achieve such reach.
Because of the slow nature of content I ended up being subscribed to more communities than I would have back at Reddit. My feed is still 99% 196 just like in Reddit, but instead of needing to pop into r/all or r/popular every few hours, the New Comments sort ends up "sprinkling" interesting stuff from other communities into my feed.
I know I'm late to the party but is there any chance you can explain 196 to me?
There once was a r/195 which I'm late to the party for but was apparently just a dumping ground of memes by a bunch of students who all lived in dorm room 195 (or something along those lines) so when it shut down people who wanted to keep something like that going decided to set up r/196
The only rule (technically there were a few more such as no NFT avatars, or that one specific person could post porn if censored correctly) was that you had to post something before you left if you opened the sub. So it became a weird meme dumping ground, and because the mods weren't assholes it ended up being a pretty nice space for left leaning folk and gender minorities.
No clue why posts are just titled "rule". I assume it started out as people simply not having a title in mind when posting, and then just kinda stuck.
Maybe because the rule is you have to post something before you close it? I dunno. Thanks for the explanation. There's some wild stuff in there.
Somewhat, it feels like reddit of yore. Still hoping it gets a little busier, however.
It’s good because I feel like I can actually participate without getting lost in the shuffle.
No, I'm missing out on critical news. If this isn't fixed I'll go back to reddit.
Everyone, do your part to submit one newsworthy event per day.
