Your first mistake was going to reddit.

It has lots of very active niche communities that lemmy just doesn't have. If you really want them then you have pretty much no choice. It's also still a very useful site for your browser searches because of the amount of information on it.

The choice is to start a similar community here and start siphoning users.

Many niche communities have more activity than lemmy itself or something rivaling lemmy. You're missing my point about lemmy not having enough people. Lemmy is literally carried by few select posters. What's worse is the fact that many communities straight up can't be carried by 1 person because it's for example a community for people's personal stories and just copy/pasting it to lemmy would kill all nuance to it.

I'm going to need a charisma check with double disadvantage on that. Good luck.

True, using Google. But all this information was posted a while ago, usually at least year ago if not few years. This is my experience anyway.
