Really‽ I just checked and many of the small subreddits I used to follow became much less interesting/active if not dead.

Meanwhile, some of the bigger subs became a repost dumping ground of years old posts/images/videos/memes by fairly new accounts (i'm guessing those are bots karma farming).

The fediverse is the much better way IMHO.

In any case, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit have become too toxic to use I will keep away (though, I never had a Facebook nor a Twitter account)

Interesting. The small subreddits I follow either moved or are just as active. Most are just as active.

I'd like to spend more time here, but Lemmy is still not attracting enough people to support a lot of the small subreddits I follow.
