I’m really not experiencing that— because there isn’t The Algorithm feeding you Content™, lemmy is more reliant on you subscribing to specific communities and for them to be active. Personally, I’m subscribed to a lot of communities, but, likewise, I get a lot of active content. Im able to, in a satisfactory way, replicate the experience that I had on reddit— minus 99.9% of the toxicity and hostility, of course.

You may simply find that it’s a mater of fine-tuning your experience here, although the platform itself is still improving. I remember Reddit in its early days, and it, too, took time to improve.
