Feel basically the same way you feel except that curiosity has gotten the better of me more than once.
Feels like Lemmy should be seeing more growth?
IMO there's certainly nothing wrong with going on reddit. There's still stuff there but it's just not the same and it's not for me. They don't respect their users at all and I'm just not going to give them anymore of my time.
I haven't been here all that long butI think Lemmy is growing and real growth takes years. It seemed like reddit was this little secret for the first few years, then BOOM! Massive growth and it was a slow decline after that. Lemmy is on the upswing and with any luck, this place won't fall into the same pitfalls ar reddit.
There was a glitch with my instance this morning — Lemmy.ml. Haven’t used what happened but these enterprises are not a piece of cake to keep going.
I think that sentiment is the same why people ask why there aren't more Linux user's. Some people just don't bother.
