Yeah, also visit redditalternative subreddit from time to time for maybe there's hidden gem like this

Lemmy is not dead at all. It's just doesn't have hundreds of millions. There are many vibrant communities, like this one
Outside of Communism, Linux, and Star Trek, there isn't that much.
Most people aren't here because of what this place is, but what other places aren't.
Don't forget the lesbian hornyposting ... or maybe that's just me feed ...
I mentioned Linux.
Touché
HAHA HaHa haha... * cry *
I wonder if it would help to make a few communities that were just like "Post whatever fun random shit you want." like a catch all for stuff outside the main things. A lot of it is just that while a lot of us have other interests we might post about they aren't the same interests. But if we could all get in a single community made for like 'casual posting' it might take off. Or just slightly more vague things. Like "Peanuts" is so fucking specific. Same with "windows11" like why not just "microsoft" for all microsoft products? Specificity can be the enemy of a communities success sometimes.
I guess. There is microblogmemes and wholesome tho
Exactly. There is a community set up, but posts are daily at best with only a few comments.
Honestly, that's enough for me. I don't want to spend hours here. A few minutes are enough.
You shouldn’t be getting downvoted. This is a pretty accurate though missing a couple things (American politics?).
I follow a couple of game communities here and they get a post every week or so. Why aren’t game subs more active on Lemmy? Simply put it’s not the gaming demographic. And that same logic applies to a lot of communities on Lemmy.
There’s also something that always comes up when talking about communities that fall outside of Lemmy’s focus; start the community yourself. But frankly there were a lot of niche communities started with the Reddit exodus that are dead now purely because many of Lemmy’s users are almost hostile towards communities outside of those original ones mentioned.
I’ll stop there. There are a lot of nuances that I’m not touching on but I don’t want this to be an essay.
Imo there is also an issue of discoverability.
You can't really search for just r/memes but also need to be aware of the multiple different instances and their own rules on top.
You shouldn’t be getting downvoted.
agreed. a tad snarky, but it was an honest opinion. lemmy will grow and communities will fill out.
dumb idea here..
one thing that may help are clients that allow community aggregation into meta communities. this would allow users to be presented with a themed superfeed of similar communities across many instances. easiest done at the client level (no protocol changes needed), but could be extended to communities using meta tags or moderator inclusion into meta communities with protocol help. protocol support would also allow meta communities to be presented via the web interface.
perhaps this has already been done in some clients. if implemented thoughtfully it could be interesting and perhaps even useful.
Not a dumb idea at all imo. One of the reasons I switched apps from Voyager to Mlem is that Mlem has a small feature that shows posts in other communities that are the same as one selected. It would be even better if it aggregated them but it’s better than sorting through a bunch of duplicate posts on the feed.
Owls
i see a whole lot of stuff here and not a single communism/startrek post. there are many foss/linux stuff tho
Lemmy:
Low engagement / kinda dead.
Waltz into any thread and say the word "Tankie", and then come back and tell me if this is still true lmao
I like the fediverse based alternatives. Lemmy, piefed, MBin(or something like that - never tried it). Feels more like building a community. Most corparate Digital Media for me feel more like being forced to go there.
Ebaum's world will be back on top any day now
