Honestly what would it take to get more people on lemmy. I only found it by someone saying the boost for lemmy app. I didn’t understand the rest of the technical jargon. But it works. Just the interests I have there are either no subs for or very few users.

Banning valuable subs like piracy, emulation, and roms would get at least those people. The subs that provide valuable guides and resources like that would have to get purged for users to be forced to seek out alternatives.

Lemmy would need to be less niche and discoverability of subs needs to be better I’d say. Otherwise it’s fine already.

it needs the niches from reddit to come over, not the big subs. but nich smaller subs.
