Is lemmy supposed to be a reddit replacement? What is the user count vs reddit? Is it worth it sticking around? I usually just casually scroll and read interesting random things, to which I may or may not get involved in, however, here my home page is empty and I probably have to subscribe to pages in order to see anything there.

    It’s a message board like reddit, with the benefit that it isn’t owned by one corporation.

    So if a weirdo server owner goes weirdo, the others can just break contact, which has happened before. If one country creates stupid laws, the servers in the country can simply shut down or move.

    Communication flows more like a spiderweb instead of a pyramid.
