    And arguably time will fix that. Or like. Reddit pre 2020 as an encyclopedia type thing. Maybe am archived copy with Wikipedia type editing or something. Idk. It’s absolutely dead now. Lemmy already “feels” better. And I was hopeful about Digg but it just feels like a facade so far. We’ll see. Improvise, adapt, overcome.

      It needs to grow for that. Right now Lemmy is just a news feed for me. Every small community I’ve found in areas that interest me is just too small to work. People barely post or comment at all, so they’re mostly ghost towns.

      The strength of Reddit is all its small hobby communities that are quite active but quite low on the outrage and viciousness. I still use Reddit for those because their Lemmy counterparts are not ready yet. I don’t use large subreddits and haven’t in over a decade, due to all the outrage and viciousness.
