  • Ugh, I need to remember to move over to kbin before commenting on this magazine. My Lemmy (sh.itjust.works) comments never show up here. No idea why, I’ll lyk if I figure out.

    Anyways, here’s my comment:

    Very good points, I think people expecting a massive wave of redditors will be disappointed. But it’s not like we need them either, we’ve already got a critical mass of quality users.


  • Here’s my comment from my Lemmy account from 2 hours ago that’s ironically not showing up here on kbin xD

    People should be aware that there are still major federation issues between Lemmy and kbin. I’ve had many experiences where I navigated to the same post on different accounts, and sometimes only a handful of comments would show up on one account or the other. This likely applies to upvotes/downvotes as well.

    Point being, I think this place feels significantly less active than I would expect from a 100k user base, due to the federation problems and bugs, along with pretty much every user being a noob to the platform.

    I think it’s fair to say if you took these same 100k users and transported them to a fully functional/stable version of Lemmy, we would immediately see a big surge in activity, simply because people’s feeds would actually be showing what they want to see, comments wouldn’t be invisible, etc.

    Also, I’ve been here three weeks too, and I have to say it was still decently active just two weeks ago, even though it was much smaller.

    I feel like the rise in users has not shown up yet in the activity, but we need to be patient and give it time, because I ain’t goin back to reddit, so this place needs to keep being fun.

    See the kind of quality content you’re missing out on? Hold the faith and activity will naturally increase as the platform matures.
