    I’m locking this because too many people are shouting at each other here because of moderation practices.

    This is not a complaints forum. See pinned post.

    One of my largest pain points with Lemmy is that there are multiple active communities for the same topic, causing quite a few duplicate posts to show up in my feed that is difficult to filter. Hopefully there comes some kind of solution, outside of userbase, this is (what I believe) one of the larger issues compared to Reddit.

    However, I still switched over to Lemmy for my primary ‘Reddit’-needs.

    I just hope this place doesn’t become another reddit, it’s already becoming one because of all you redditors moving here with your redditry.

    What constitutes an active user? Is a new lurker like myself counted or is there a threshold of minimum action needed to be counted?

    I am ready to give up Reddit, we need more communities to move here!

    Lemmy is the only federated service I actually enjoy using. Just missing being able to block an entire @something instead of having to block every single community of it

    and no I do not want to “choose another host that does block it”, it should be a user choice.

    Subjectively, Lemmy’s communities are much more robust and have a lot more content than they did during the Reddit API exodus. I imagine there will be more people who choose to stay this time around.

      Yep, I discovered let me during the API Exodus, and then came back recently with this last wave. They’re definitely feels like there’s a lot more here than last time!

      Also finding a lot of value in reading and actually interacting with comments and content, on Reddit I just felt kind of drowned out and a lurker

      The problem is that communities feel dead if they’re below a certain critical mass of users and the resulting content. If we can hit that critical mass it will take off on its own
