i swear i wanna go back to reddit just to experience some actual content again, instead i have the same 4 posts about reddit crumbling or how lemmy is “fresh” and “friendly” and stuff

i mean I’m all for the fediverse and want to see reddit crumble but ffs i want content not reddit vs lemmy drama

I know i can sort by my subs but i want to see shit from all the site since there isn’t enough content yet to just stick to my own subs yet more and more I’m finding myself itching to go back to reddit and stopping myself because fuck those guys

Shit’s still going down, the situation is not yet resolved with reddit

It’s understandable to want content and an active community, but that’s exactly what many people are cheering: the more Reddit crumbles, the more people will leave and create/share content elsewhere (like here)

With the vast majority of Lemmy users being refuges from Reddit, it’s easy to see why “Reddit ded” circlejerk is strong. It’s the most relatable thing to everyone here, as nearly everyone here can relate. Not to mention it’s the only thing that unites us as it is the only thing we have in common, regardless of which community you used to belong to on Reddit.

But, I do see those posts less and less. As time went by, I’m sure people will move on from the circlejerk (probably to another circlejerk, but at least they do move on).

When it comes to the lack of content, that’s due to the lower number of users. It’s hard to say if whether it’ll get better as it depends on which kinds of content you are looking for.

But if you want more content, try sorting by new. Reddit death content will usually get more upvotes as it relates to more people than any other content, but the “new” sorting should eliminate this bias.

Can’t echo the point enough… Sort by New.

I see lots of content. Sort by top day or new or whatever. I think your only three posts are about Reddit. How about making three more about something else now they you’ve got this out of your system?
