I agree except it feels like people are way more active here than on reddit, me personally I never commented but I comment all the time on here. Lemmy feels really active even without a ton of users (especially discussion threads)
That said, it is unfortunate that this only applies to very general spaces or some specific communities. If your interest is even a little too niche, the dedicated communities often feel like a graveyard unfortunately.
That is true because the individual engagement is much higher in a smaller community. On reddit you'd just be one of thousands shouting into the void. It also helps that Lemmy pushes new comments to the top.
Yeah the pushing new comments to the top is my favorite part about lemmy, it's a good mix of top comments and I still get to see a -20 comment from time to time (and sometimes they're right)
its probably due to self-censorship because subs, and reddit is ready to ban you at the moments notice for saying something they think its violating the rules(misconstruing) and not do actually violating by being vitrolitic, or bigotic. you have to be careful what you say on reddit.
