    Since the 30th I’ve stopped going on reddit, but I must admit I still don’t participate here as much because the content I’m seeing it’s not as tailored to my interests as I’d like. Searching for communities tends to show a lot of communities with no participation at all, which is useless.

    Also wished there was a video player. Being constantly redirected to youtube is a bit annoying.

    But I’m very happy with Memmy for Lemmy. Not as polished as Apollo, but close enough. And Lemmy feels freer from bot/ai/ad content, and that is worth gold.

      yeah that’s the unfortunate thing about a smaller site! but the onus is on all of us to start participating, so even if you see an empty community, just post something in there!

      well, communities without participants is not Lemmy’s fault.

      Although I do share the same experience. Euro communities are almost dead. Escooter community has like 5 members lol.

        The german lemmy community seems quite active from what I can tell. Can’t say anything about the EU community as a whole, just created my account 5 minutes ago and I’m still exploring what there is to see.
