They do post from time to time... to complain ๐.
In fairness, a bigger and bigger percentage of my comments lately have been criticizing Lemmy, often because there's nothing else being discussed here that I give much of a shit about.
The longer I'm here the less optimistic I am that this is the next big thing and the more it seems like it's just Reddit with less content, less discussion, more hive mind, and higher percentage of annoying users.
It's the echo chamber effect, it a positive feedback loop. This is why I kept my reddit accounts, because, one, shit gets boring here sometimes, two, more diverse opinions, three, users are not as entitled as they can be here... not all of them, but man some people here can be real Karens.
