Judging by comments it's almost entirely the lack of content on lemmy puts people off

    Which is insane, because reposts were rampant on reddit, to the point that I rarely saw anything new that wasn’t a news article.

    The other part is lemmings. A lot of us here are very hostile.

    Never thought this would be a badge of honour but I'm also proud I wiped my comments and deleted my account before they inevitably banned me for posting a 🍉 or something.

    There were a few small subreddits I hung on for. Just a few niche communities that flew below the radar and avoided some of the bots and other enshitification. But when they forced logon for old reddit. I was done. I've been so happy here on Lemmy. I reminds me of how fun reddit used to be.

    I would've seen their point maybe a couple years ago, but I can't remember the last time I got to the bottom of the all feed here. And sister, I can scrrrroll. Like I start to grow mushrooms and I'm pretty sure my cat partially melds with me.

    As a person who tries to post a lot here to bring more content, it looked a lot different around here even 6 months ago.

    Thank you for your service.

    I also mod a couple communities on another account. Turns out if you just post things you're interested eventually other people will join in and then you can just sit back and enjoy.

    Yeah, people like you are changing it to something more palatable. And I'm seeing increases in different users posting/commenting more often rather than just the power users. Idk if it's crossed the threshold for increasing usability yet, but I'm hopeful for it for the first time since I was new here that it's slowly becoming better.

    Excellent! I love seeing that increase, I love hearing from different types of people.
