It is objectively a lot more male than Reddit or other social media. Reddit has many issues, but lack of women is not one of them.
Haters recently on here. Much more blocking necessary than half a year ago or so
Duplicate posts. Soooo many duplicate posts
North Korea shill. Seriously. How absolutely dumbfuck do you have to be to actually believe there is even the slightest good in that regime? It hurts me personally that I’m Korean and that I’ve seen countless people, some I’ve met in person, who lost their families in that hellhole. And yet people who can’t even spell Kim Jong Un or Juche are celebrating that prison of a kingdom.
Nothing about them are “left” or “progressive”. To me, they’re worse than MAGA shitheads.
Absolutely disgusting. Hope they all rot in North Korea.
4 times the same post in 4 different identically named communities…
I want a global feed, communities can federate with in a sort of sub-lemmy.Everyone complains about it being empty and not many want to do anything about it. I’m not sure if this is even because of the user number, because I’ve been on forums with just a few users that were very active. It often seems like too many people here are waiting for a large influx of users so that others can do the posting. Also people try waaaay too hard to copy Reddit 1:1. They have this one very specific community with certain content and try to copy it here. If there was a subreddit for a 1998 version of an obscure computer game, they want this very same community to exist here. Instead of discussing said game in a more general community.
There is a lot of computing and a lot of politics, but not very much else.
Everyone on Lemmy has a tiny penis and severe personality disorder. I blend in too much.
Not enough users.
I am forced to see posts in communities I am banned from for having an anti-ai stance AKA a working brain. I didn’t block all of them soon enough.
What I am saying is that you should still be able to block communities you are banned from. Seeing them in my feed and being unable to get rid of them is like seeing cockroaches in a kitchen.
Lemmy? the politics.
the fediverse? I know I’ve said this like a billion times to the same five people who come on here, but federated platforms still ape the format of big social media platforms, and inherit many of their pitfalls. I want long-term discussion and human connection, not an endless waterfall of content that quickly gets swept away.
The lack of people. We need more people on the Fediverse.

I don’t like that it’s basically Reddit. people from Reddit came here and they act like it’s Reddit and it’s basically Reddit
The total lack of concern for easy on boarding of newbies. There’s a lot of big talk about taking on social media monopolies but absolutely no interest in coordinating to actually accomplish that goal.
This is like an echo champer of tech people, hard to find non-tech aware people here.
That was reddit when it first started it just takes time the problem is reddit people want to speed run this and created a bunch of communities then abandoned them or filled them with AI Slop. Only making it harder for stuff to grow organically. I do wish Lemmy and Piefed had a network global name space for communities like how IRC does channels.
it just takes time
It takes more than just that, though. Reddit’s UI and mod tools are more powerful, and the Fediverse as both a concept and a practical entity are more demanding and trickier to understand and use.
We’re here, we’re just self-aware enough not to make it too obvious. I just don’t even interact with half the content in all because I have no fucking clue what a “distro” is, is it like a mix between a disco and a bistro? Sounds fucking awesome actually, I’m in.
Skip the “all” feed. It’s not interesting to me either, even though I’m familiar with distros and such. I just read the “subscribed” where I’ll find stuff I care about.
There’s just not enough content. I come here to doom-scroll and troll trolls, it’s much harder to do that when most of the communities I’m actually interested in are nearly inactive or don’t exist at all.
Yeah, that’s a real problem. All the really interesting special communities get like 1 post a week at most.
Agree. I like tech and I’m subscribed to tech communities. But not a whole lot other than that here.
