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.

    To your third question: yes. I actually moved here a couple of years ago from reddit, due to that API nonsense. It’s a smaller community, with much less content. But honestly, it’s better this way.

      Smaller doesn’t mean worse I guess, but I’ll try to preach to everyone I know in reddit to make the leap for sure now

        People don’t like to be preached to, or converted to something they know nothing about, especially if they’re happy with what they already have.

        Yes it would be nice if there were more members on Lemmy, but I prefer if people make their own choice to seek it out themselves.
