And this must be a bot, endless posts by this user, every time the same content on multiple communities.

The other guy, schmidt-something is pointing out that people will use their instances to have like-minded community whether that’s interests, language or specialism, while you appear to be advocating for the reddit type congregation of people and for some reason also arguing against the other guy’s description of reality, of how things are. I don’t see why you are offended at him…
And I see you have your own anxiety and disagreement about the nature of Lemmy’s federated system. That’s no reason to shoehorn it into every discussion.
I think you are pessimistic about Lemmy’s potential for small communities.
But have you considered that we’re not indexed on Google yet? And we largely don’t have a pervasive culture of promoting niche communities yet like they did on the large subreddits. So this is two other ways small communities aren’t being found in the first place.
the entirety of lemmy is not big enough to warrant splitting “technology” into 5+ different groups. this isn’t different groups of people all talking about something from different perspectives, its the same people separated by federation while simultaneously filling everyone’s feeds with the same exact content.
1 i’m not really offended, i don’t care about anonymous morons on the internet. 2, have you even read these comments?
lemmy is indexed by google. it shows up on the first page of the search for “lemmy”
News flash buddy, people want different things, not everyone wants the same troped repeated, you can’t have discussions when the entire comment chain is circle jerks.
Smaller communities allow this.
How is this so hard for you to comprehend? Different strokes for different folks, and are you EVER going to address my points? Or are you just going to continue to argue a different point everytime you’re called out? I can do this all day, we don’t want Reddit here, don’t bring it here mate.
No one is going to stay on a site that only has memes, porn, politics, and 20 copies of the same tech news article on the front page every day. You need small communities in a centralized system to survive and this place has none of that.
If you want a curated front page, there is other places for that, the people that want lemmy to thrive will allow it to by posting and commenting on the the stuff they want.
It’s not what you want, and that’s fine, but don’t make this worse by trying to make it what it’s not.
This is better for different reasons, not a hard concept, and this should be that hard for you to comprehend.
FYI, you can address my points at any time instead of arguing different points… any time now dude……
Buddy wants this to be Reddit 2.0 where the same tropes get traction instead of actual discussions.
The hive mind and centralized speak of Reddit is horrendous, at least lemmy allows minor discussions to happen without it getting muddled. That can’t happen in large communities, and buddy just can’t seem to comprehend that some people want something different.
