I don’t need to be “spoonfed” anything, and it’s a little weird for you to assume so. I interact with all of that media, watch film & anime, read books, watch documentaries, etc. on other platforms. I share my music and artwork, I write video games as well. This isn’t about what I am up to.
Lemmy is a discussion site. I just think it’d be cool if we discussed more than what we currently discuss here. I think other prospective users might want to discuss other things than the current fare, and yeah - when it’s not here, when wanting to discuss it is dismissed essentially as entitlement & wanting to be “spoonfed”, they’ll do it elsewhere: reddit.
Yeah that’s fair. Sorry. I was pretty burned out on comments saying “there’s not enough content, we need to shove more content into this one place, more and more content forever so we can be more like that other site with all the content in one place only we hate it”.
But thank you for elaborating on what content you actually want. There are niche communities that aren’t very well served on Lemmy, but I never found them all that valuable on reddit either, often being overrun with low effort memes, “look at this photo of a 3080/PS5/whatever I bought” and a daily posting of questions like “how can I program an MMO”.
Chasing some vague, unconditional “growth” just seems like people are rushing to recreate the worst parts of reddit.
