I got banned from reddit (honestly feel a lot better without it)

But I miss being able to answer stupid questions and relationship questions.

Lemmy is great, but why aren't there that many people on here? I don't get it.

An I using my filters wrong or something?

We all were using reddit at some point without thinking about alternatives. Once thinking about alternatives, there are a lot of reddit alternatives out there.

Off the top of my head -- There is also td-win and voat (which are like, Reddit for neo-nazis) and hexbear (which is like, Reddit for leftists who lack the social skills to be around even other leftists)

There's also Aether, which is a P2P reddit-like program, which will have a form of democracy for community mods when a community gets large enough.
