Was originally thinking of posting Lenmy content on Reddit to less directly advertise Lemmy, but in the communities I follow, its almost exclusively content or already posted to, or directly originating from Reddit. This got me wondering if there were any niches that Lemmy serves better than other, larger platforms.

    I don’t know about content, but the Linux and self-hosting communities on Lemmy are infinitely more helpful than the ones on Reddit.

      In general, advice on tech related things is much better

      Reasons may include

      • your question is more likely to be seen and answered

        • there is less content overall
        • your question isn’t competing with as much engagement-bait

      • lots of older, experienced, and helpful people on the site who want to help
