- Comment on What are good places to frequently check / 'be' on the internet besides lemmy / reddit / social media? 1 year ago:
Find a RSS aggregator that you like and add the RSS feeds of websites you enjoy going to. I’m assuming most have the ability to search websites based off topics to help you get started.
The feed will show you every update those websites makes automatically.
There’s no comments or frivolous things. Just headlines, images and text of the webpage.
It’s a nice reprieve from social media.
- Comment on Why is my Lemmy experience feeling so lame? 1 year ago:
When I joined Facebook in ~2006 there was already a decent amount of people using it. There was enough interesting content for me to stick around.
When I joined Reddit ~2009 it was also starting to really become popular. The Digg exodus helped tremendously.
The difference between them and Lemmy is that they already felt polished compared to Lemmy. Lemmy feels almost as though it’s in Beta. Lemmy goes down practically everyday for me. There’s not a lot of original content and it’s a very different experience than any other social media sites. Honestly, it’s complicated compared to the straight forward nature of other social media sites.
Instances, communities, Fediverse etc. I’m going to say that a lot of people will not like the hassle.
Can there truly be an implosion of Lemmy? I thought the nature of the Fediverse was that it can’t be controlled by a single entity? If an instance goes down, can’t there be something to replace it? As long as there are servers and people willing, it will remain. Right?

That isn’t true. It is not a numbers game. Reddit didn’t start off with numbers. Facebook didn’t start off with numbers. Tumblr didn’t start off with numbers. Twitter didn’t start off with numbers.
They all started small. Growing gradually. People stayed because they enjoyed the content and the community.
Hype and influence only attract a certain type of person. Fools. That will just create an inferior community. You’ll have a digital Fyre Festival that way.

You’re not going to like what I’m about to say.
You’re part of the problem. You can fix it though.
Ready?
You need to make original content for the communities you are apart of and stop expecting others to provide you the conent you want. Because if that’s what everyone did, then there would be absolutely nothing here.
That’s just the way it is right now. There’s not enough original content creators on Lemmy yet.
What does original content mean? It doesn’t mean reposts from other websites. It doesn’t mean articles from other websites. The original content was already posted by the writers of the articles, on the original website. It doesn’t mean comments you make. My comment here isn’t original content. It’s a reaction.
Original content is something you make. You baked some sourdough bread? Post. You made a chair from wood? Post. You made something out of leather? Post. You took a nice photo? Post. You made some digital art? Post. You drew a sketch of a building? Post. You did “insert hobby”? Post. You’re a collector of this niche thing? Post.
The truth is, original content can be hard and time-consuming. It takes a certain mind to want to post original content. If everyone here would make just one original content post, I think that would help make Lemmy a better social media site.
Be the change.

What I find crazy is that I just watched Alice for the first time since 2008. Of all the links that sends me there.
