Seeing a lot of cake icons lately (meaning it's been a year you have been here, which makes sense if you got here during the Reddit API changes), so happy Lemmyversary to most of you! (dormi.zone)

Yeah "shit" is somewhat of an exaggeration.

My problems with Lemmy are mainly:

Few users
Few communities
Few posts
Few comments
Extremely focused on just a couple of topics like Linux, Communism, Star Trek, LGBTQ (nothing against Linux or LGBTQ though) variation is desperately needed
Extremely filter bubbly.

variation is desperately needed

I blocked most of those topics, then other stuff starts to appear

i am curious: since those topics make up such a large portion of the content i see on lemmy, do you find that you get a good number of posts to look through without them? i mostly browse all and find i can get through just about everything i'm interested in clicking on in like 30 minutes per day.

maybe it is just a symptom of how i browse the internet and my semi-niche interests, but i find the non-linux hobby communities here to be rather lacking. i know the solution is to post to them myself and i try to, but frankly i don't have that much to post about. it also takes some willpower to keep posting to a 10 person community and get maybe a couple comments every few posts if i'm lucky, but that also could be that my posts aren't very interesting lol
