Yeah, totally agree with this post, grew tired of Reddit Circle Jerk. Its like when someone cant move on with their past, so they bring it to every conversation, how their ex (Reddit) used to be, and found a new lover (Lemmy/Kbin) and how things work great with this new relationship
Let's just forget about Reddit. Reddit can do whatever it want's, the user that still on Reddit can also do whatever they want. Lets just focus on growing this new communities, this Fediverse, and do what we can do to make it thrive, and how to make it better for new user, and the less tech savy one
Sure, but "the past" as you refer to it was not even a week ago, and the situation is still actively unfolding.
Communities are growing, OC is being posted, and the lemmyverse is starting to get its legs underneath it. If you look past the reddit related posts you will see this happening all around you.
However most of us haven't even been here a week, communities aren't built overnight. Reddit has 15 years of people creating content and building out subreddits.
I couldn't agree more with your reply. What I'm saying is, lets focus on this new journey. Reddit do have their hiccups when first generally used by its user 15 years ago, and i believe Reddit start just like how Lemmy/Kbin, or any Fediverse app start. Its a bumpy road, but its a good progress
The fact that we interact in this post means that we have the same goal, we enjoy interacting on this platform, and its a good thing. because new users can see that there's activity, there's interaction within Lemmy.
Sorry for bad English :D
Part of the problem may be the bugs on the Lemmy instances which have not been showing "hot" content correctly. This may be giving a false impression of an obsession over reddit as posts are stuck on the front page?
I've been browsing a few different communities and am finding things are active, they're just not reaching the default Lemmy front pages. Sorting by new or diving deeper into communities shows a lot of new content.
For example I'm currently browsing from Feddit.uk and this seems to have exploded into an active community in just a week; it's really heartening to seen. I've also seen different content when viewing from Kbin based instances like Kbin.Social or Fedia.io (including from Lemmy.world).
This bug has been identified and is resolved in the next version release.
The servers that have been keeping hot updated are manually restarting the backend every so often to unstick the bug
