Similar to Mastodon’s spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

    Because every post is just Lemmy users jerking themselves off raving about how much cooler they are than Reddit.

    It’s so fucking cringe I I can’t scroll more than 5 minutes without giving up.

      Bruh all you’ve contributed so far are a couple snarky comments yourself. You’re not really in a position to be criticizing what others are posting. It’s a new site, you gotta grow the communities you want to see. If that’s not something you want to be part of then check back in a few months. You don’t like the programming, get up and change the channel.

      This comment is so ironic seeing as how I didn’t see a comment like you are saying besides yours. Come on. We’re all here together. Get over yourself.

      I don’t see that on my front-page. You need to curate your own experience on Lemmy just like you do on Reddit. Plenty of Lemmy isn’t metaposting

      https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active&nsfw=null - list of communities in Lemmy

      https://lemmy.world/post/2216085 - list of casual communities to subscribe to to get you started.

      if you browse c/all you’re going to see a lot of annoying trash you aren’t interesting in, same as Reddit.

      Don’t go to !memes. Thats all really. Block the community because thats where 99% of the circlejerk comes from (and app shaming somehow??)

      The important part is that you still found a way to feel superior.
