Hello everyone,
Basically the title.
In my case, I’m trying to address the regularly brought up issue about Lemmy/Kbin only being about memes, tech and news.
Hence, I’m trying to post regularly on
As we all know, growing a community is hard, but I hope that over time they will become more populated.
That doesn’t happen because everything is federated, the .world users will also see the posts on .ml, they can upvote/downvote, comment etc. and vice-versa.
I know it’s true in theory, but in practice I have seen some LW users only wanting to browse their local feed, or not wanting to subscribe to .ml communities.
Another issue with having the same content posted twice is that the same discussion could just happen twice, bringing discussion fatigue to the people that just discussed the same topic in another thread.
We shouldn’t centralise Lemmy just because some users treat it as such.
I agree
