Any thoughts on if there’s anything we can or even should do about that? There’s not much here.
I really dont think there is a need to push people on lemmy anymore. In terms of user experience of lemmy still isn’t as good as Reddit (although not by much imo). I think the best thing would be to focus on keeping everyone here, improving UX, and when the next Reddit crisis comes and people look for alternatives we will be ready and better than reddit. More people will stay that way.

I guess I just wish there were some robust Christian community here, but there just isn’t. Oh well.
smh, Talos is the one true god of man
Sounds reasonable to me. Just wish more had come I guess. Oh well.
I wasn’t expecting a huge exodus of people yet. Especially from r/reformed. The content creators and mods of r/Reformed are still there.
Whereas other large and general subs are losing their mods and/or content creators. There’s much more reason for them to switch to Lemmy.
But… Give it time. Digg didn’t die overnight. It took a good year or so for many to make the switch to reddit.
And reddit was really rough at the time.
Yeah, it even lacked basic functionality like being able to paste text into a comment box. Oh wait… ;)
I expect the same movement that Mastodon had when Twitter was about to crash… not much. Different reasons but same vibes.
Do you use Mastodon btw?
I keep reading that twitter has died or is about to, but at least my corner of it looks the same as it always did
Nope. But I don’t use Twitter either. I never really got that kind of communication.
I never loved Twitter. I tried to but I just don’t like the format.
I gave Mastodon a try years and didn’t love it. But due to the whole fediverse thing, I’m giving it another try.
My desktop Lemme states that there’s only 1 subscriber to this community. I assume that’s incorrect and/or a bug or just growing pains for Lemme?
It took me a few days to finally get subscribed to this. I finally followed the instructions correctly to find this community using the search feature. It sure would be nice to move away from Reddit, especially after July 1st.
I’ve had subscription pending for over a week. I’m going to guess I’m not alone in that.
Lemmy is an interesting concept but as others have said, it’s quite unpolished at the moment. It has potential. The whole “fediverse” thing is somewhat confusing to me and I imagine this site being off-putting to those who aren’t as into tech.
I guess, but in a basic sense, it is pretty easy to use.
I came from r/reformed and will check back more often. Plus I got a cool generic username here.
