The people who don't want to stick with Lemmy are the people we don't want on Lemmy.

I see this as a win.

While that's true, I find it a bit sad that I have posted a question in the community of a 200000+ population city 3 months ago, and it's still the most recent post.

Honestly I still use Reddit quite a bit because Lemmy just doesn’t have the content that Reddit does.

Lemmy’s left-leaning communities and tech communities are active but past that it is a ghost town. I think that’s why a lot of people did not stay.

I have also experienced bullying and harassment here that I had never experienced on Reddit and I do wonder if other people experienced similar and left because of that.

Right? People want to turn this into reddit.

Have... have they they seen reddit?

I prefer things without powermods, corporate and government influence, profit motives, censorship, groupthink, karma farming, excessive banning, etc etc.

If people really miss an endless content feed then they can just switch to one of the social media giants - it'll only take a couple of clicks - and Keep Lemmy Good.

Out of privacy/tech bros and far left extremists, there's nothing else on this site. This place doesn't appeal to the general public because there's nothing here for them.
