Idk if I think lemm.ee is a good alternative. (lemm.ee)

I think this place is too fragmented into instances to ever generate a front page anywhere near what r/all is.

If I understand this page right, https://lemm.ee will never show the top post of the day from https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/, https://discuss.tchncs.de/, or https://feddit.uk/.

And the "front page/general" site is already split into several instances (https://vlemmy.net/, https://lemmy.world/, https://sh.itjust.works/, https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/ and https://lemmy.one/, all claiming to be "a general front page lemmy instance")

So what's the deal, which one are we betting on as the place to direct all the new traffic? What's the contender for primary public internet bulletin board? Right now the arrow to an alternative is looking like this: https://i.imgur.com/L1XsBy6.pngd

I'm personally guessing the conclusion is already reached; We have no place we're betting on. We're disinterested in pushing for any particular result. We don't expect people to migrate. Many might not even want them to.

Go tell those spergs over there how Lemmy works, and see if that convinces them to change their mind.

The results speak for themselves, this is a bad new user experience and will need thorough consideration and clever restructuring. I think you're too satisfied with the fact that it's functional at all.

The Fediverse won't be any kind of meaningful response to corporate social media until you stop being satisfied with just the front row audience.
