I wish I had the resources to open and maintain instances. There's a few topics I followed on Reddit that I haven't really found an alternative for.
Can't you just start a community, rather than needing your own instance?
Im still mad confused. You cant just search a random sub"lemmy" and add it, you have to add a whole ass lemmy "channel"?
The service may change but the people don't. The average human just isnt terribly bright and there's always going to be dumbass kids and loser adults with too much free time posting low effort regurgitated content. We hit that point when the nostupidquestions/advice sub's did in fact start to be filled with stupid questions.
I think you may be misunderstanding the name of that community. The point is "[there are] no stupid questions," not "no stupid questions [allowed]".
The Eternal September is impossible to dodge, unless you impose a usage fee and iron fisted moderation. People are dumb, even moreso online.
lol the issue with lemmy isn't an influx of users. it's the outflux. all we're left with is Hexbear and r/atheism
