Reddit’s pretty good for niche support communities that still manage to have an active userbase. I wish I could cut the cord entirely but Lemmy just isn’t there yet.
Nobody is upset that Reddit is not good for active support comminities. They’re upset that they’re having their options taken away and being exploited for profit.
Lemmy will never “be that way” so long as people like you perpetuate a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I didn’t mean that was a complaint against reddit, I just meant it’s a reason a lot of people have been reluctant to leave. I’d love to see the site die personally, but I still think it’s a little more complicated than self respect.
Also while yeah I hate to be a person who complains and then doesn’t take any action, I know for a fact that I don’t have it in me to moderate a support group between jobs.
The fact that the largest is still so significantly bigger than the rest that this can be a concern shows that Lemmy still hasn’t come anywhere close to being where it needs or is supposed to be.
The network should not rest one the shoulders of one or two websites.
There aren’t even a lot of specific game related communities that are active here. Even big games like Elden Ring, which recently announced the release date and gave us a huge trailer for the upcoming DLC, have little to no activity here on Lemmy. And that makes me sad. Because I’m not going back to Reddit just to get hype and deep dive into the imagery show in the trailer even though I hella want to 😬

A lot of Redditors don’t have enough self-respect to stop using Reddit.

It doesn’t help that you’ve joined an instance that defederated from the largest (world). Welcome, by the way!

…I totally forgot that was a thing, thank you. It’s been a while since I was active on the fediverse.
And thanks!
