It's also the case of people don't look at spam and go 'lets try this random site that people are promoting'

I agree, we don't need another Reddit, we just need to show that it is a better place for people to experience some of what Reddit gives people. Communities and stuff need to be active, especially smaller ones. A lot of gaming communities aren't active on here and would be greatly improved if the gaming scene had a place to go other than Reddit.

Gaming is normally what boosts a lot of communities, websites and projects on the internet to a bigger place and that could be a start for Lemmy / Mbin.

This is exactly what is needed. So many people moved back to Reddit after the first time because of users having years of posts on Reddit allowing for easier search.

Yeah, they almost killed their platform with the API changes and many people moved across when that sort of thing happened. It just sucks that Reddit is still going even to know there are better options out there.
