Same profil : 15 year in reddit, and I feel it is bad since 10 year. I’m here since yesterday and Lemmy is not an improvment. Of course a smaller community make everything more comfortable. But today I already see repost from yesterday. The same content cluter the front page. I got timed out. And seen more pussy pics in 2 days than in my whole reddit carrier (ok that might be a plus)

My point is: The community need to grow. encouraging participation help with that. And the concept of instance seems to already dilute the feeble engagement
