Lemmy more social than Mastodon or Nostr
(lemmy.ml)
Having tried all three, its a stark difference in how much more social Lemmy is comparatively. Its not even close. Almost all posts I've encountered on lemmy have interaction; whereas, more often than not, posts on the other two platforms have no interaction. Wonder what the driving factor is behind this difference?
I haven't thought of that, but that's actually a neat idea. You're right that Lemmy format works best for two people having a discussion, and it becomes messy to track larger conversations with more people. What often ends up happening is that the person who made the original top level comment ends up having many separate conversations with different people.
I haven't actually seen a good way to represent discussions between a group of people now that I think of it. Having watch functionality helps you know when replies show up, but it would be neat if different people replying could also be aware of what they're all saying.
