I went and looked at tildes as a result of this, and it seems aggressively dead. Like, the fediverse is pretty dead and tildes makes it look positively thriving in comparison. Yeesh.
What are you talking about, Lemmy is great and Matrix is absolutely thriving for things I care about.
Sure, Lemmy doesn't have 300M users or whatever Reddit has, but that doesn't mean it's dead, it just means it's small. Valuable discussion happens here, and it seems to be improving.
No shit you think it's fine, you're a techy linux weirdo. Good luck discussing like, musicals or tabletop roleplaying games or homemade moonshine or anything in that general vicinity of "niche" on here.
It's small enough to literally have zero posts of a variety of topics, and that number isn't improving. Get outside of your own circle every once in a while.
Well yeah, you are probably going though Reddit withdrawal. Comparing anything to Reddit and it'll seem dead.
Not a fan of your incendiary language and provacatory flaming attempts, but pretty on-brand for refugees who misses Reddit like an ex. I mean, Reddit is still around and I'm sure they'll take you back, just apologize and use the Official App™!
You're an idiot. Also a techy linux weirdo, so I'm not surprised. Did you know other people have hobbies that do not involve Linux, and would like to be able to discuss them without someone like you bending themselves into a pretzel over how the Fediverse has no room for filthy casuals who don't know what FOSS stands for. Gatekeep harder! This will surely save the fediverse from normies.
Relax man lol. It sounds like you've been through some shit on the Fediverse, but it has nothing to do with me. Project your anger elsewhere.
And I wish I'm a Linux techie so I can wipe my lonely tears away every night with cold hard cash.
