Not that it is not interesting but I would like just a tad more variety on the front page.

Edit btw for those who are wondering the two communities I started are https://lemmy.world/c/newmusic and https://kbin.social/m/musicfeedback/microblog (not sure if I have the links correct for people)

Already have more posts and comments than my 12 year reddit history. I'm trying my best to adapt and survive.

[โ€“] amitten@normalcity.life 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm in support of this. I was explaining to my wife just a bit ago that most of the "content" on lemmy and kbin is all about lemmy and kbin, and very little about anything else. For those of us coming from reddit, most of the content on reddit isn't about reddit. I'd like it if lemmy and kbin was mostly original content.

Come on, the Reddit drama is juicy AF to talk about. It's why I'm here. Don't gatekeep bro.

[โ€“] Nogami@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Not sure if it will get any front page traction, but I've already gone out of my way to write some (hopefully good) posts about my favourite NAS technology, unRAID ( https://lemmy.world/c/unraid@reddthat.com ). I have a number of other information and problem solving posts I'll migate over from reddit before I delete my content there.

Well said. Thank you.

Do we already have a list of subreddit replacements on lemmy, kbin etc. somewhere?

[โ€“] SterlingVapor@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

No, I think it kind of goes against what we're trying to do here - if a list like that became popular, it would supercharge the growth of certain communities

There's a lot of people pushing for that because it would make the site a straight Reddit replacement, but the promise here is a lot like the original promise of Reddit - give users a single place they can go to access a bunch of small forums

If someone makes a community for that purpose or a community wants to draw in all the Reddit refugees, I have no problem with that, but I think the growth would be healthier if people find them organically rather than putting a centralized list somewhere

Sites will start to pull in a community if any of the members on that instance sub to it and there's talk of adding the ability for communities to band together in multis

[โ€“] thesanewriter@vlemmy.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes, give me a moment and I'll link it

Edit: Here it is, this is an explorer for Lemmy: https://lemmyverse.net/

Shameless community promotion: https://lemmy.world/c/general

If you're not sure if your post will fit in another community's niche, and it's not really a shitpost (see: https://lemmy.world/c/lemmyshitpost for that!), General Discussion's got ya covered.

[โ€“] szczur@szmer.info 4 points 1 year ago

You know, I tried creating content about animal facts and nobody read it.

[โ€“] AskThinkingTim@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Does anyone know how long it takes to create sign up to the lemmy.ml instance? It seems impossible right now.

[โ€“] LufyCZ@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Afaik they have currently suspended new signups

Thanks for the feedback. Seems impossible to sign for the instance.

Yes please! The biggest downside to these places are that they won't shut up about reddit. There is almost no interesting content just post after post of people talking about reddit.

[โ€“] Rhaedas@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's quite possible that a lot of these posts aren't the same ones, but new faces just coming from Reddit and venting. If you're over the discussion then move on the next topic in the feed. Most of the Reddit posts usually are in Reddit-specific communities like m/RedditMigration. Block them and you'll see less stuff.
