Found it’s niche may be a better way to put it. Technology is very active, programming is full of good content. A good few meme communities. And the daily comics are great too. Plenty more examples. But plenty of communities pale in comparison to reddit, and this is likely due to the normie effect.

Techologists lead normies by 2 to 3 years, so give it another year yet before people migrate in bigger numbers

Yes, it’s over

I’ve been thinking about tryna help out by posting memes, but all the ones I have are gonna be reposts, albeit from reddit, potentially years ago now. If ppl are interested I know for sure I at least got over 1k saved on my computer

Try a different instance

I got here 5 months ago. It seems like everything I search for is posted 1 year ago. So for sure Lemmy had a short burst boom…but then people stopped coming back.

I see communities with mods that haven’t had any activity in months.

You know what would make this place REALLY take off? Porn. I know LemmyNSFW exists, but have you tried actually browsing it? Sure, at first glance it looks active, with multiple pages of content, but look at the date. Some of them had their last post 6+ months ago. Others go 1 post every month. I’m supposed to jack it from 1 picture, change community, 1-2 pictures/videos per MONTH???

C’mon ladies. Grow the fediverse. Show your titties! :D

I mean, I’m joking, but the logic does track…
