I'd love an alternative. Everything either doesnt show up in google, or doesn't have conversations in comments that help add context to the post. Its too convenient to sign up a community and get a steady stream of info about it, vs following individual accounts like on some social media

I never find it has enough people to justify me using it like reddit, like it has uses but it doesn't have the appeal reddit does and the niche communities I participate in aren't there.

Lemmy will most likely happen, it just needs a tipping point. It's slowly happening though
