What are we going to do about it?
Sorry for the Google Translate Link. An easy alternative is much appreciated.

Yeah they are shit now. What can we do to move them over to Lemmy?
Pornography was a very popular draw for Reddit, but posting in general helps too.
High resolution pictures on lemmy is a bit slow still. Worse for video. That’s the second most important issue left to fix on lemmy
still is, since many accounts are there to just spam thier OF profile.
I see this sentiment a lot but I don’t see the spam on pretty much any NSFW subreddit.
Which subreddit and user?
I only heard about lemmy a few weeks ago I bet there’s more like me. I think it’s just a question of promoting it
Cool how was the switch for you? Do you like or miss something in particular?
I love it! Reddit has slowly been going to shit for years, so many posters are nasty and there’s so much hysteria. There’s ads and political manipulation everywhere. I miss some of the subs, and would prefer a bit more activity but at the same time posts are far higher quality. Overall I’m really really happy and it’s been smooth and welcoming
Nice to hear! Yeah activity is still way lower than on Reddit but it’s slowly increasing. :)
100% and the good thing is they seem to be really nice people joining
Lemmy is not a forum.
Forums are structured around activity bumping, not recency and voting. A years old thread can end up back on the front page if someone posts in it. It’s just a different medium.
And it’s a medium that we need to preserve.

Lemmy is decentralized. So very different.

There is no central management on Lemmy. Every instance is managed by someone else. Nobody can decide something for all of Lemmy.

What are you talking about?
This is clearly a Digg.
In some ways yes in other ways no. The urge to hivemind and purity test everything is definitely the same however the ability to move to another instance and get away from a group of power tripping mods is different.
Lemmy is essentially a collection of 2000s era forums that have agreed to share user accounts.
Lemmy is a lot of different Reddits under a lot of different managements.
