    Not just number but quality. It was all memes at the start, now actual conversation is happening in more than just a few posts.

      Good point! I’m hoping for some of the more niche communities to start becoming more active. Things are trending in the right direction though.

      You need both though. Memes and shitposts to scroll though and chuckle, and then quality stuff to engage on. Lemmys got that, and the momentum will keep it growing.

      I tried lemmy like a year or so ago, and it felt so stale. The technology is there, but the content just wasn’t. That’s clearly changed now. 😊
