Not sure I agree with this bit. I'm absolutely on board with everything before this...but if community wasn't the point, why have comments, profiles, direct messaging? Pretty sure community is the point.
With you on this. Lemmy isn't a link aggregator to me, it's a ranked-threaded discussion forum, or set of fora.

...lemmy has profiles and dms? didn't actually know that.
reddit grew those after a huge influx of users demanded them, and i've still never understood why.
neat
The more you know!
