Why is everyone in such a hurry to make lemmy into a Reddit clone?

For more interesting and easily discoverable content. Really that's what people want at the end of the day.

I want lemmy to become popular just so you can be quoted in news articles. User "fist eye mouth eye fist" wrote that...

Or just have ๐Ÿค›๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿ‘„๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿคœ appear in reputable news outlets.

By the way why are people able to do that? I see that person's username is mojo by hovering over it but at a glance it's just emojis.

Mojo is my account name but you can change your profile name at any time in the settings so I used dumb emojis lol
