My lemmitard in christ it hasnt happened yet. We are only a small .1% of crossovers and the whole fediverse is still less populated than r/malefashion advice.
It is not the number of users. It is quality of interaction. And I argue that it is already here (kbin user). Yes, it still misses such things like subreddit for a particular obscure game, but the overall experience is great.
Right — on Reddit, if you didn’t get to a post within say the first hour or so*, you were going to be banished to a vast wasteland of unseen comments with only one upvote.
Even if you did, well, your comment best be damned clever, funny, or interesting to be interacted with much.
This basically feels like a less lonely Reddit.
Mastodon also has this vibe for me (vs twitter). Basically, the superstar economy effect is less strong.
*or piggyback on an existing top-rated comment (trying to make one’s own relevant to it, or “hijacking” it)
I 100% agree. I sometimes think of le funniest heehee hohos on reddit and i get 2 upvotes. Lemmy hits that dopamine a little harder with smaller number of users.
Lemmys been a great alternative, hope it starts to take off
Starts? My sibling in Christ, it’s happening already.
