I’ve been on Lemmy for 12 days apparently, feels like a lifetime! And I keep seeing posts about how it’s too empty or there’s no content outside of the Reddit drama or whatever.
So it got me thinking, am I just subbed to way more stuff than most? Because I go into the “all” tab maybe once a day, and keep busy in “subscribed” the rest of the time.
Here’s my stats:
- 121 Lemmy communities
- 42 Kbin magazines
- 163 total
That’s for this account, although I also have a second account for slightly different topics so there’s probably another 20-30 or so unique subs on there.
How about you?
I’m subbing to anything that seems remotely interesting but I’ll probably end up pruning the list eventually. The same thing happened when I joined reddit back in 2010. I was so excited to read about everything and then realized I didn’t actually care that much about the individual topics.
I’m at 60 which already feels like too much
Weirdly I’m subbed to 162, so almost exactly the same. Not sure of the kbin/lemmy breakdown.
Most of the communities are still really small or inactive but I’m subbed in the hope they develop in the next few weeks or so.
The problem is I don’t want to be buried in content. I just want an acceptable amount for the things I am interested in.
I’m subscribed to seven and none of them are very populated. I want a bit more to browse through, but I want it in those particular pockets. I’m pushing myself out of my comfort zone to be more active in the areas I’m interested in (and even have anything to say about).
17 subscriptions. They have had 7 posts in the last 12 hours… definitely pretty empty compared to reddit.
Gotta get those numbers up my friend :D
People need to make active communities I’m interested in, cause I’m not making them. Only a couple subs I’m missing from reddit though, more just want more activity in the existing ones. And I don’t care to start threads…
92 ‘subs’ so far.
Sub as a noun is fine. Sub can just mean subscription (to a community) or “at a lower level” so lower than an instance, thus community.
