The number of comments per minute seems to have gone back to pre-blackout levels today. I think unfortunately there are just way fewer of us than I'd hoped.
The organisation was very poor. All the mods had to do was setup a sub here and link it. The ones who cared could've joined.
48hrs isn't enough.
Not all mods or are sold on Lemmy though, same with Redditors in general. Even on r/RedditAlternatives I see so many posts and comments saying Lemmy will never take off because it’s not user friendly enough, too complicated, etc. I find it pretty disheartening honestly. Of course a platform in its infancy will have bumps and hurdles to sort out. The fact that they’re dismissing Lemmy so quickly is just saddening.
But I feel we’ve already had a promising start. As QOL changes arrive and UI slowly improves I think we’ll see more and more people trickling in. Just gotta pray the spark doesn’t fizzle out before then.
There are. The few of us that appreciate it and give back to the community. I'm starting to look at it as a good thing.
