Let’s see your best examples, OP. Walk the walk, please.

Me, as an article-writer and content creator I try to low-key share links to such on Reddit, but also try not to go overboard.

Knowing one’s community is also key, as some will welcome fairly overt links, while others will become greatly offended at even subtle Lemmy content.

What if we all go through our subbed reddits and make them here?

That’s exactly what I did with a fairly niche community, and so far we’ve got 400+ subscribers in only four months. Pretty good for Lemmy, I think.

TBF, I think part of why it took off so well is because Lemmy’s ALL stream is relatively slow enough such that small niche communities have a much higher chance of being randomly seen. Compare that to Reddit, where they’d typically be buried.

So there’s a prime opportunity right now to start a community on Lemmy and have it take off relatively easily. That might not be so true in future.

I haven’t used Lemmy in a month because this site is more transphobic than Reddit.

Well that's very disappointing if true. Could you give an example?

Btw, just to be clear-- Lemmy isn't "one site," so you're likely to get a wide range of reactions depending on issue/cause where you happen to be (communities, instances).

One thing I hadn’t thought much about until recently-- the quality of comments is so much higher here, and I don’t have to typically scroll through a wasteland of dudebro jokes to get to relevant replies.

So, comments are also ‘content,’ and from what I’m seeing, Lemmy already has a distinctly smarter / more mature userbase.
