all the garbage that is reddit her
just use filtering. just auto repost most upvoted content.
Just post, generate a community. Thats how it works.
I dont have the amount of time to redo all that work that people that post to https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/ already done. this is absolutely pointless menial work nobody wants to do
im not alone, many people say they are lemmy native, but just have separate accounts and use reddit. thats ok.
. If people here wanted Reddit, theyd be on Reddit.
we are tired of playing cat and mouse with reddit.
I want reddit content , just not on reddit
its that simple - not everyone is like you
So simply post things.
not working. look lemmy is 5+ years old. its pretty stagnant. we need explosive growth for people to start leaving reddit.
look - its ok. we dont need to argue. lets agree to disagree.
I will create my own instance
im sorry - but im dead set on leaving reddit. if they want to ban me -its their call, I will create my own instance - thats the topic here
I’m not here for content. I’m here for interaction.
oh my lord. people - if there is no content, there is not going to be people to interact with.
its that simple
chicken and the egg - solve the egg problem and you will get the chicken.
yes I was using Firefox with ublock. and they started showing unskippable switch to mobile app message:
look - I dont want to use reddit. thats the point. I want to ensure reddit goes digg way. I dont need it
Have you even considered manually contributing your own posts and insights?
I dont want to contribute to absolutely empty community
but I cannot use reddit without ads - they started blocking on mobile.
at least on lemmy - we could see all reddit content without reddit ads
the plan is - siphon reddit content until lemmy community is big enough where it does not need that.
BAPC sales is one of the very few types of subreddit I can see being useful to mirror since it basically exists to be an rss feed and comments don’t provide as much value as usual.
rigggghhhttt!??!!?? their slogal is literally stolen from subreddit. wth
and I respectfully disagree.
95% of people are commenters and not post creators.
when Im as a commenter come to community without posts - I leave. itsded. there is nothing for me to do .
when im as a commenter come to community with reddit reposts - I immediately see content and I can comment, the world is my oyster.
hey thats your opinion and you are entitled to it.
me - I will choose reddit reposts on lemmy, while using good lemmy apps without ads over empty lemmy community.
at least there is a build out chance
I did indeed. no response
its a chicken and the egg issue - no content no users. give them at least content and then users will come
look - I want to talk to humans as well.
but if there is no content - then what are you even talking about .
95% of reddit users dont post content, they just browse existing content. Im sure similar distribution at lemmy.
At lemmy - if there is no content to even browse - people will go back to reddit.
I 100% believe for 90% of communities here - " bot just funneling Reddit to Lemmy" is a 1000% improvement over no content at all.
at least people can then just shitpost in comments instead of just going back to reddit.
Im sure many people want that. I dont want empty communities - thats why lemmy is stuck in tiny userbase without any growth.
explain it to me - what purpose is a community with last post 2 years ago? Why does it even exist if noone uses it?
why even bother running a community?
2 years with no posts - who is this for?
And there should be way more. Why people going back to reddit otherwise.
