Content diversity seems like it slowed down. Back when the Reddit exodus happened about of niche communities were created. A lot of them have been abandoned now.
Lemony is still good as itβs tech and privacy centric (which I love). But the excess of US related news, furry stuff, commie/cappie arguments are everywhere. You can always block communities and instances but it gets tiring after some time.
Indeed, we should definitely consolidate
Consolidation is another thing. There are many communities that are similar on different instances, firefox for example.
Would be nice if lemmy supports something like multi Reddit with the option of hiding duplicate posts.
