There just are no alternatives to some things on there. So I’m stuck having to check in at least once every day.

Stop using Reddit

“Having to”? Sounds like addiction tbh.
hellerpop@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Some people use it for more than just entertainment and killing time. Like getting advice or certain topics like parenting or relationships. How to deal with a partner with certain conditions etc. You can’t find that on lemmy.
Klear@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
If you have to check parenting advice on reddit every day, you shouldn’t have had vhildren in the first place.
Fades@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Because Reddit is the only place those communities exist, right?

Did you expect the fedi to be more popular? Lol
beatlepus@lemmy.world 1 year ago
So you like fat hores.
JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 1 year ago
I like how the other comments to you are essentially: “I use it” and “it is good”
Bodongs@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I would if lemmy was even close to an actual replacement.

What is it missing?
Syntha@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Basically every community that doesn’t have > 1,000,000 subscribers on Reddit?
DarienGS@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Because I want Lemmy to succeed and grow, I’m making a real effort to contribute to discussions where previously I’d have just thought things to myself and moved on. I really hope more people do the same so we can start to sustain those more niche forums.
glad_cat@lemmy.sdf.org 1 year ago
That’s the job of you and me.
HarbingerOfTomb@lemmy.world 1 year ago
That’s too many subscribers anyway. 90% of the comments would’ve just been buried and no one would’ve seen them
Stumblinbear@pawb.social 1 year ago
Have you even used Lemmy for anything except meme reposts?
rambaroo@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yes, but you’re still right. The niche content isn’t there and won’t be until the user base reaches critical mass, which might never happen.
kilgore_trout@feddit.it 1 year ago
I wouldn’t know if it’s an original post because I don’t use Reddit.
eran_morad@lemmy.world 1 year ago
“this” “i too chose this guy’s wife” “here’s my onlyfans”
Fades@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Don’t forget about the endless boring-as-fuck parody accounts
SamboT@lemm.ee 1 year ago
My subscribed feed has top posts from days ago. Specific communities like virtual reality or mountain biking or classical guitar are basically empty.
That said I don’t use reddit and consider my boutique feed a sacrifice to the internet gods until lemmy has more population.

I’m not sure about others but I’m missing news and information from my home town. Reddit was my go-to for that.
