I wish it didn't take a system/site/service imploding to get people to try something new.

MySpace got silly, enter FB. Twitter gets Musked, Mastodon finally takes off after years of not. Reddit nukes their own service, Etc.

Not that bad projects shouldn't die off, but it's always a reactionary move for the masses, rather than a proactive "let's try this new thing because it might be better".

In my own defense, I had literally never heard of Lemmy until yesterday. Maybe I'm just following the wrong things on reddit though haha

I am also usually in the same boat.
