Yeah my browsing time has gone down compared to Reddit. But Lemmy has far less mindless content, if I’m on here I’m more engaged and actively read articles linked or write comments.

My guess is, that normal people always assume if it’s free there has to be ads or something else involved.
It’s hit and miss everywhere to get a response back.
The title of the article is pure clickbait…
The article itself is mostly padding for a non issue.
If I find duplicate communities, I just subscribe to all of them. Maybe recheck after some time and look through the activity and unsub then.
Lemmy is still young and at an early development stage. With the huge number of new users and content generated the code is being pushed to it’s limits and bugs are popping up.
But this influx of users brings also new people to help out with the development.
For me it’s not about changing other peoples minds, it’s more about creating a viable alternative to reddit for the right people.
Reddit should deal with hateful people and those who are unwilling to challenge themselves to look over the edge.
I sort by new mostly and if I find something interesting I write a comment trying to startup some conversations. The more people do this, the faster the community will grow.
On Reddit it felt useless to comment, when I found an interesting topic the discussion was already drowning with one word comments and other useless stuff. Here on Lemmy the discussions feel more genuine. Probably it’s because the userbase is more mature, or the nature of Lemmy is not to generate money.
