Wow that sucks, It just sucks even more that a good portion of the Reddit Fanbase doesn’t want to even try other platforms such as Lemmy which give much better user experiences in the end.
Someone should put together some lists of instances to block for new users. Only English for example. Lemmy seems like opposite reddit, you block communities not subscribe to them. It’s taken me months to block enough that my feed has mostly things I care to look at. My blocked list is miles long, I think I’ve subscribed to 50 but I never browse it, it’s so slow moving.
Idk honestly. Lemmy is quite an echo chamber in terms of tech stuff especially. I think reddit having much more content of all different types can make it a better user experience for most people. I find it hard to suggest lemmy for the average user who just wants to see memes and discussions based on their hobbies and interests. Lemmy is a lot less diverse.
@Neve8028@lemm.ee I know I for one have been trying to fix it in the gaming sense talking about the games I enjoy on communities I rather find or make myself. Hopefully more topics get explored and filled in the near future.

Lemmy not pulling in Reddit’s general audience and Lemmy having a better user experience than Reddit are highly correlated.

yeah I wish we had more variety unfortunately I don’t have time to commit myself to be a mod for a community here
You’re 100% right about that. Try mentioning a web browser that isn’t Firefox for a good example.
actually you should be using waterfox / librefox
