    I agree, reddit got too big to be fun. That said lemmy still needs to get bigger in order for communities to actually thrive.

      I disagree. What made Reddit for me is that there were so many people on it, than any niche hobby had it’s own space.

      Sure the main big subreddits were shit shows, but the hobby subreddits were great! Something that still isn’t a thing for Lemmy. Specialization.

      I still find myself checking Reddit out for subreddits on specific niche games for example.

      Like there is literally a subreddit for almost anything. Robot vacuums. Sins of a Solar Empire. Crusader kings. Fish tanks. MotoGP.

      Things that probably will take a while to get running on Lemmy.

      Right now Lemmy is too “general” for me to really have a feed of things I actually care about.

        You’re right, Reddit has a lot of established communities. But if you were going to start a new community? I think it’s all downhill from here.

        The niche hobby subreddits and the small games ones are still king on Reddit, in my observation.
