I'm in support of this. I was explaining to my wife just a bit ago that most of the "content" on lemmy and kbin is all about lemmy and kbin, and very little about anything else. For those of us coming from reddit, most of the content on reddit isn't about reddit. I'd like it if lemmy and kbin was mostly original content.

I'm definitely in support of "mega-threading" anything related to the Reddit blackout unless it's big breaking news (but mega-thread those events too).

I've also started to look for communities for some of my interests, but I suspect it's going to take a while before a lot of them spread to here. There are also a bunch that I can't really start since I am primarily a consumer and not a producer (specialized topics like astrophysics that I am not a subject matter expert for).

Come on, the Reddit drama is juicy AF to talk about. It's why I'm here. Don't gatekeep bro.

Already have more posts and comments than my 12 year reddit history. I'm trying my best to adapt and survive.

I am! We are!

(Just- make sure to subscribe to more places. There are a ton of communities spread around on various instances)

Well said. Thank you.

You know, I tried creating content about animal facts and nobody read it.

Do we already have a list of subreddit replacements on lemmy, kbin etc. somewhere?

Both is good

If you’ve got any puzzling items around, post them to What is this thing? for us to work on. New content is very welcome!

Go subscribe to some communities you like, show subscribed, profit.

Im having the opposite problem - when I sort by top of day I get a really fast scroll I cant keep up with.

Yeah I agree, Lemmy needs to be it’s own thing and not just a Reddit hate platform. But so far the experience has been great.

We need to be POSTING!!!!

I'm doing my best to post in small communities of interest to me. Growth will take time though.
