One of my issues with Lemmy so far is how meta it is.
Reddit is often meta, sure, but 60% of the content I'm seeing here (while browsing Everything) is about how much better Lemmy is or whatever app people are using to access it. Let's get back to shitposting, articles, and memes please. I want this platform to work and I don't think it will if this content continues.
Lemmy is still fairly new to most people here and most of these new people came from reddit. A group of people who majorly are having a single, shared, novel experience (moving from reddit to Lemmy) are gonna talk about that thing until it stops being novel.
It's already getting considerably less meta so I'd just enjoy it for what it is, contribute content to the communities you like, and just allow the meta conversations to naturally subside.
