I posted about that here and forgot < https://lemmy.world/post/896361> but today when I checked cloudflare analytics it showed about 1000 pageviews in last 24 hours. Looks like some people are using it so just wanted to let you guys know that it works, no ads. no popups nothing.

What is it missing?

[–] Syntha@sh.itjust.works 33 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Basically every community that doesn't have > 1,000,000 subscribers on Reddit?

[–] DarienGS@lemmy.world 37 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Because I want Lemmy to succeed and grow, I'm making a real effort to contribute to discussions where previously I'd have just thought things to myself and moved on. I really hope more people do the same so we can start to sustain those more niche forums.

I would like to add that I am also doing the same

[–] glad_cat@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That’s the job of you and me.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Im doing my part!

[–] HarbingerOfTomb@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's too many subscribers anyway. 90% of the comments would've just been buried and no one would've seen them

[–] Syntha@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 months ago

Yes, 100 to 200 comments per thread are easily enough, but lots of medium sized subreddits don't even exist or are barely active on Lemmy.

[–] Stumblinbear@pawb.social 17 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Have you even used Lemmy for anything except meme reposts?

[–] rambaroo@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but you're still right. The niche content isn't there and won't be until the user base reaches critical mass, which might never happen.

Brother I found communities for mushrooms and small birbs where I could share my photos of mushrooms and small birbs.

[–] kilgore_trout@feddit.it 3 points 10 months ago

I wouldn't know if it's an original post because I don't use Reddit.

Don’t forget about the endless boring-as-fuck parody accounts

[–] SamboT@lemm.ee 14 points 10 months ago

My subscribed feed has top posts from days ago. Specific communities like virtual reality or mountain biking or classical guitar are basically empty.

That said I don't use reddit and consider my boutique feed a sacrifice to the internet gods until lemmy has more population.

I'm not sure about others but I'm missing news and information from my home town. Reddit was my go-to for that.
