lemmy still isnt nearly as good as reddit was by a long shot. niche communities suck, porn sucks, c/all content isnt bad but if you scroll once youll just repeat everything on refresh.
but god damn the reddit app is terrible now and the content sucks there now too it literally feels like its trying to be a tik tok clone.
Since the fall of reddit, I feel like I don't know how to internet anymore.
I miss the good ol' days when everyone on the planet was free to make their own unique websites using JavaScript and HTML. Now all we have is google twitter tiktok instagram LinkedIn
You can still do that, just your website will never be seen because it won't come up on search engines
And when reddit was at its best, it took years to gather those user numbers. I just dont understand why people keep missing this point.
Lemmy isn't on an upwards trend.
Of a few months...?
The problem is that this is a spiral. Less users results in less content and smaller communities dying, which in turn leads to less users.
Pro-tip: sort All by New Comments. Yes, if you refresh, you get repeat content, but you also find the unusual stuff and the repeated stuff is where the conversations are happening.
Quit porn
this is a crazy take to make from my comment but i respect ur grind ig
but no, porn and jerking off is good for you abstaining has no benefits and never will. and i can confirm im much healthier and far more shredded than youll ever be.
