Comment on Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.
tfm@europe.pub 3 weeks agoI think it’s more about the scale. 80% or more of the content gets created on Reddit or alike, probably.

Barely any content is created on Reddit. It’s an aggregate site where 90% of the posts are links to other sites, just like Lemmy.

I have to disagree. I have seen a lot of helpful question/answer Style content there which was only there.

well maybe on certain (mainstream?) subs, but tech subs like those that do something with selfhosting have a lot of discussions. including in the comments of posts that point to external content!
its a shame that there’s no lemmy instance thats basically a mirror of a few reddit subs (or is there?)

I’m not sure if it’s a Lemmy feature or voyager feature. But under the settings, there’s a migrate subreddits. It pulls across the subreddits you are subscribed to and matches them to ones on Lemmy.
