There is not much getting posted, it is becoming emptier and emptier.

It feels like that party where I was one of the first people in, then people came and it was cool, and then suddenly it’s nearly empty.

    Even at its peak lemmy was still 200,000 vs reddits 100m+ active users. We are working out the kinks and improving everything month by month and when the next wave of user migration comes there will be a higher peak with even more users remaining!

      I remember when the most upvoted post on Reddit had just 10.000 plus a handful upvotes.

      It was like (IMO) the golden age.

      We’re not far from that.

        Yeah I joined reddit around 12 years ago and Lemmy feels more like how it was back then. I do miss the more niche subreddits but we’ll get there eventually

      Definitely curious to see if we experience waves similar to how mastodon does every time elon says something stupid. I’m not sure we will, though. With the entire reddit gold thing I was expecting people to throw their arms up about the reversal of stuff people paid money for but it seems like they just accepted it and moved on. Perhaps the people that remain will stay there no matter what. Regardless I think how things are going here are still promising.
