I have yet to have someone stalk me on Lemmy. Happened on Reddit all the time.
Yet. Reddit has been around for over a decade and has millions of users and lemmy has like a half million users. Lemmy isn't better, there's just a lot less of it. Duh.
Smaller is often better. See Usenet and the Eternal September.
For a site like reddit/lemmy, more is better. You need enough users that you can find any niche community u want.
I guess I would rather have less bots, trolls and angry assholes than have more niche communities.
I respect that, but I personally do value the goldmine of pragmatic advice and answers that virtually only reddit provided so quickly
Like with most things, more is better until it isn't. Non-niche subreddits are night impossible to have any meaningful discussion on because there's too much damn noise.
You can absolutely have the opposite example. I'm subbed to a bunch of niche Lemmy instances, and no one has posted anything in there for literally months.
Yup, that's the trade-off. A reasonable solution is to use Reddit (with adblocking on) for niche discussion only and Lemmy for anything else.
yes, but it's easier to create a smaller subreddit and get a sustainable subscriber base, than to create a niche community on lemmy and hope that people eventually stumble onto it.
