Not that it is not interesting but I would like just a tad more variety on the front page.

Edit btw for those who are wondering the two communities I started are https://lemmy.world/c/newmusic and https://kbin.social/m/musicfeedback/microblog (not sure if I have the links correct for people)

I'm interested in the new music community! I'm terrible at branching out. Thanks for making something I didn't know I wanted.

[–] webghost0101@lemmy.fmhy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

I am actually trying to find more of it! I love burn corposhit style drama. Its a bit all over the place though so i can see why its annoying. Maybe i should start my own community..

Not mine but I really like !tabletopminis@lemmy.world.

[–] pzza@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

It'll get better over time as things settle in. Right now reddit is just the hottest topic on the block

[–] amitten@normalcity.life 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm in support of this. I was explaining to my wife just a bit ago that most of the "content" on lemmy and kbin is all about lemmy and kbin, and very little about anything else. For those of us coming from reddit, most of the content on reddit isn't about reddit. I'd like it if lemmy and kbin was mostly original content.

I'm definitely in support of "mega-threading" anything related to the Reddit blackout unless it's big breaking news (but mega-thread those events too).

I've also started to look for communities for some of my interests, but I suspect it's going to take a while before a lot of them spread to here. There are also a bunch that I can't really start since I am primarily a consumer and not a producer (specialized topics like astrophysics that I am not a subject matter expert for).

If you’ve got any puzzling items around, post them to What is this thing? for us to work on. New content is very welcome!

Yeah I agree, Lemmy needs to be it’s own thing and not just a Reddit hate platform. But so far the experience has been great.

Im having the opposite problem - when I sort by top of day I get a really fast scroll I cant keep up with.

[–] FiskFisk33@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Go subscribe to some communities you like, show subscribed, profit.

Come on, the Reddit drama is juicy AF to talk about. It's why I'm here. Don't gatekeep bro.

[–] laculacu@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Do we already have a list of subreddit replacements on lemmy, kbin etc. somewhere?

[–] SterlingVapor@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

No, I think it kind of goes against what we're trying to do here - if a list like that became popular, it would supercharge the growth of certain communities

There's a lot of people pushing for that because it would make the site a straight Reddit replacement, but the promise here is a lot like the original promise of Reddit - give users a single place they can go to access a bunch of small forums

If someone makes a community for that purpose or a community wants to draw in all the Reddit refugees, I have no problem with that, but I think the growth would be healthier if people find them organically rather than putting a centralized list somewhere

Sites will start to pull in a community if any of the members on that instance sub to it and there's talk of adding the ability for communities to band together in multis

[–] thesanewriter@vlemmy.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes, give me a moment and I'll link it

Edit: Here it is, this is an explorer for Lemmy: https://lemmyverse.net/

You know, I tried creating content about animal facts and nobody read it.

[–] TimoculousPrime@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes please! The biggest downside to these places are that they won't shut up about reddit. There is almost no interesting content just post after post of people talking about reddit.

[–] Rhaedas@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's quite possible that a lot of these posts aren't the same ones, but new faces just coming from Reddit and venting. If you're over the discussion then move on the next topic in the feed. Most of the Reddit posts usually are in Reddit-specific communities like m/RedditMigration. Block them and you'll see less stuff.
