You're the one who brought you reddit dude, not me.
No one is going to stay on a site that only has memes, porn, politics, and 20 copies of the same tech news article on the front page every day. You need small communities in a centralized system to survive and this place has none of that.
the entirety of lemmy is not big enough to warrant splitting "technology" into 5+ different groups. this isn't different groups of people all talking about something from different perspectives, its the same people separated by federation while simultaneously filling everyone's feeds with the same exact content.
I don't see why you are offended at him...
1 i'm not really offended, i don't care about anonymous morons on the internet. 2, have you even read these comments?
But have you considered that we're not indexed on Google yet?
lemmy is indexed by google. it shows up on the first page of the search for "lemmy"
i didn't say anything about reddit, you did.
when admins leavy defederation like a nuclear weapon, you know its a problem.
this site is gunna be real successful if you tell people to leave every time they point out glaring issues LOl. enjoy your site with 12 copies of the same content taking up half your front page for days.
yeah. i don't like link aggregators that fracture communities and post 12 different copies of the same link to the front page. that's my problem, not the sites.
your whole example is centered around 2 groups inability to communicate with each other. its the worst possible example of people who are fully capable of communicating simply electing not to because it makes them feel better. witch isn't what's happening here.
reddit is dying because of the company, no other reason. acting like this place is some how better when the largest of nitch subs barely get 2 posts a week is simply ignorant.
a simple flaw in this design is that users on lemmy.world and users on beehaw.org are not federated, so how do we resolve that issue for a community that is on .ml, .world, beehaw, and nsfw, beehaw would have to support content from world, who they are currently defederated with, or their users would just not see content from world users. the whole premise of defederation is ironically antithetical to the premise of federation. by making a larger group of distributed users, the system could work great. but the admins are taking their personal issues to each other causing fractures that make adoption for newer users and more laymen basically impossible. that whole "it doesn't matter what instance you use" is complete BS at this point since half of the top 5 instances are defederated frome at least 1 other.
