no reddit diaspora sites has ever survived and no instance on the lemmyverse has the critical mass of users necessary to recreate reddit's subreddit communities.

the people looking for a reddit alternative will leave and .world will become like any other instance after .worlders start to miss the niche content enough.

As for this valid focus on critical mass of users, perhaps a linked tags approach is better than a multiple-communities structure, until specific tags gain enough friction to become communities. Just thinking.

i had a similar thought when i used to spend most of my time on .world and felt that the lemmyverse was lacking where reddit was overflowing.

i haven't felt that way since i've switched instances and found more content than i could ever finish reading/watching/learning from other lemmy-ites.
