Just making sure I'm in the right place. I cannot see any developed communities here so I've started wondering, what's the real place everyone from Reddit has moved to? I've heard something about Discuit, but never tried it.

This is surprising to me, I actually experienced the opposite. Reddit had a lot of teens but Lemmy seems to have older posters who are more thoughtful about what they post. In my 30's myself and wasn't able to get anyone younger than 34 to join.

It could just be the communities you subscribed to?

I mostly browse "Top X hours" which is All the communities and it's filled with terrible memes and "funny" things I've blocked of few of these meme communities but overall it feels pretty low quality content aside from news but still there there's lots of duplicates due to the various similar commuties on Lemmy
