Yeah, lemmy has become really good lately. It's generally better than Reddit these days. I tried it a year ago and it was still quiet here, now I see posts with 2000+ upvotes
The only thing Reddit still has is certain very active niche communities, but we do great on the more general stuff.
The sheer coverage of every subject on Reddit is crazy. Yesterday I was getting infuriated at a stupid plot in the 3 Body Problem, so I ddged it, and of course I found 3 Reddit threads sharing my frustrations. What a shame it has to get enshitified.
It helps that Reddit along with other big platforms like FB absorbed all the traffic that in the old days would have been distributed into small separate forums. Not good for the ecosystem.
Internet ecosystem is a great term, it was put well in an article someone shared on slrpnk: https://slrpnk.net/post/8711732
Thanks for the link. That's an interesting community!
