Yeah this is where I’m coming from. I ofc don’t like the evolution of reddit and didn’t want anything in that sense.
But the traction in casual themes seems lacking. Like ofc it will be less and smaller. But I feel like some branches are completely missing while others seem so dry.
That’s the thing being a small community with a direct monopoly. The unique selling point (USP) needs to be so clear for users.
But I think we should keep repeating these posts, even if there’s no traction. We are laying the ground work in that sense. And one person reacting to the fifth post is what it’s all about. It’s the content to be put out there.
So I think you succeeded with your music thread! It’s just the expectation is on the wrong metric here, keep going. WILLYA?
That’s where I’m coming from with my fetching topic. Not because I like the current reddit, but because subs like Harley quinn need stuff for browsing majority to interact with!
Region as in the @handle behind our username?
Or do you mean all the different subs by regions
I see, is lemmy also a site then? I’d call mastodon/pixelfed other “platforms” (as in different content format and use focus) and lemmy/feddit “sites” (different sub owners that all can interact with each other)
Did I get this right? 😁
Exactly, that’s why I what I tried saying. Chicken and egg, I want to help with both within my reach
But most that migrate won’t stick unless they get a unique selling point(USP) out of it.
And I see it as a non silicon valley possessed platform, that has even more options to configure the experience to your liking(ie ui skins, at least for me there’s a couple through feddit)
But also there needs to be a at least some daily posts on most subs for new people to interact with. Most just browse and if there’s nothing to browse (or if it’s too hidden), most will just switch back again sooner or later.
But I’m talking with a day of experience… I still haven’t seen the light of posts yet I feel like
What User numbers are we talking? Of each sub/platform? Or like total? Because I can saw how many members a sub on feddit has for example
Wait there’s pretty girls? I like talking to pretty girls
EDIT: jokes aside that analogy didn’t reach me, and as you prophesied I am confuseth rn
Thank you (and all the different responses) very much for the detailed explanations!!!
EDIT: so for extra stupid people like me: how do I differentiate between feddit and lemmy and all the subs?
I hope it ends up being flipped upside down for profit like the Meta platforms.
It’s all small video posts although their essence was connecting with friends and exhibiting pictures/memory/photography. Now these use cases are actively changed into smartphone zombie habits through their UX.
I hope reddit will follow the same fate and this platform here will be the new forums-for-everyone and all the useful questions will be found through fediverse when entering your hyper specific search engine request
But currently I haven’t found my communities yet and most of which are kinda inactive. Some having only a monthly post, others even none at all
In hopes this fits and sparks a conversation with your opinions, I’ll link to a similar comment already made
