Title is a bit of a loaded question but I tried to fit it into one sentence.
Do you think Lemmy’s search and use functions are hurt by all the communities that were made and abandoned during the 2023 Redditfugee influx? As in, do you think that Lemmy would be better off if some of these communities were consolidated into larger general pages until it gets a big enough user base to warrant individual communities for specific TV shows, for example.
The biggest problem with Lemmy Community is “Linux is not for newbies and it does not work as smithy as windows” Sentence will give you negative Karma in hundreds. The community is smug about using Linux Anywhere on Lemmy.
Lemmy doesn’t have Karma, it’s not visible on the webUI currently and will be completely removed in the next version.
Not any more than reddit is hurt by dead subreddits. I don’t see it as a big problem. But I think discovery is a bigger issue - finding new communities.
Reddit doesn’t have dead clones. Lemmy is full of them.
Clones or subreddits? There are dead subreddits.
We’re talking about dead clones here, which pollute Lemmy.
Yeah I’m pretty tired of manually blocking all the fucking furry porn
how many subs are showing up in your feed lmao
They pop up in the /all equivalent if you don’t have NSFW communities turned off in your settings. I can only find the proper setting on desktop version tho, not mobile. So if you’ve never checked your account settings on desktop, you’re actually seeing a shitton of furry and anime porn.
Source: I found the setting and turned it off on my PC wondering what I was not seeing. Couldn’t fix it on my phone no matter what I tried. Went back to PC and switched it back and all the porn vanished again. Uncensored Lemmy is thirsty af
