Feeds are littered with repost bots recycling mindlessly internet trash. Not rare is to see series of exactly same posts from different communities with no comments.
Say what you want, Reddit got this one better

You should try pinning a weekly discussion and write a short paragraph yourself every time on whatever comes to your mind instead. Try it in casual conversations, I think it’ll work a lot better as the comm looks a bit too spammy right now, and it’s a lot less work on your part.
Lemmy is different from reddit in that a thread can keep going more than a couple of hours after it’s posted, making dailies unnecessary. You don’t have to do everything the same way as on reddit, but you have to experiment.
I tried weekly for a while, but it just seemed to be buried under all the other stuff, even if it should indeed stay visible longer. I noticed that after one or two days, nobody would comment anymore.
I’ll probably keep the dailies this week and then the community what format they prefer.
You should pin the weekly thread and write a little about a general topic to discuss to start the conversation. I find that works the best.
