I have high hopes for Lemmy, but I don't think that having a lot of users is going to be a super positive thing in the long term. It'd be great if it could feel like younger Reddit for longer than younger Reddit did, you know? Stay at least a little under the radar.
It's inevitable with things on the internet. If Lemmy is successful, it will become like reddit too.
Somewhat but reddit drew a lot of people in with celebrities. The people attracted to celebrities and image heavy content will be more drawn to Threads instead of Lemmy. At least imho
You find Tildes image heavy compared to Lemmy? I have the opposite experience. Maybe I'm subscribed to some image heavy communities here?
Not sure why I said it that way, all I really meant was Instagram users
Yes and no....I am on lemmy.nz and browsing by local / subscribed eliminates all of the memes and bullshit.
I do browse by all every now and then...but it is not my preferred setting.
