More fun-type content.

I like Lemmy, but I feel constantly bombarded by depressing content and “comedy” poisoned by irony and sadness.

Instance owners ought to clean up all the unused communities that were created during the Reddit exodus by inactive users/mods only wanting to hoard the names. They’re basically redirecting traffic from actual communities and into a void.

I wonder how often it happens that some user has a hobby/interest, and go search for a community for this interest. They’ll find an empty community and leave without posting.

My theory is that if the dead communities didn’t exist, people who actually care about the topic would create their own active communities.

More comments, in general. Many posts have tons of upvotes but zero comments so it’s hard to engage in a conversation.
