Would it be a good idea to cross post large amounts of old Reddit content?
I was looking for a reddit alternative that was similar to how mastodon works and found lemmy. I don't like mastodon very much, but I thought the mastodon concept works much better when you have smaller communities decentralized over multiple instances. Kind of like all those bb-forums back in the day, but through a single interface/client.
So naturally, I do like Lemmy but it still kind of has the same problems I have with Mastodon. I want to go into detail in a full post at a later time, but in general it comes down to the user experience not being great. I have quite a lot of ideas for improvements
It will come naturally after api change is done. Yesterday we had a chance to testdrive new user influx before the bigger wave after 3rd party apps are cut. Let's see how many users are going to endure reddit's native app.
I'll post when I have something worthwhile to post. Lemmy should go for quality over volume.
Hello everyone! I must say that it's a bit confusing and all, especially finding new communities. But it seems like it has lots of opportunity!
I'm yet to find a way to see memes etc. But I'm sure with the influx of people it will all come together
@GatoB I'm trying to make the best effort I can, I started a London community at feddit.uk/c/london and been making content for it and cross posting whatever I come across that could work there. So far I gotten around roughly 50 subscribers and some engagement in my posts. I'm reaching out for engagement so if you want to join in and make this something I'd really appreciate it.
... Or if you want to lurk I'm good with that too, I'd appreciate the eyes more then anything at this point.
I'm just chilling and getting comfy. then I'll start contributing after I feel out the vibe here.
100%. No one is here from my niche interest so I made a community and I'm going to post in it every day.
Even bad content is still content and gets more engagement than nothing.
