I tried using Lemmy, but it’s unusable. Every thread has <5 comments. It’s a ghost town.
I’ve seen this type of comment multiple times on reddit and I still don’t understand this sentiment. It just shows that the OP has not once sorted by active and “nobody is using it so I’m not using it” is a pretty weak argument if you claim to “really like the idea”.
Honestly, I agree that it’s generally pretty “dead” (esp. compared to Reddit), but to your second point, I still use Lemmy exclusively because I really do like the idea. Plus, it’s already good enough to be a fairly viable Reddit replacement imo.
