Why does anyone still use reddit? Why does anyone still use Twitter? Why does anyone still use Instagram?
A lot of stuff ONLY has viable Q&A discussion there....
As much as I love the idea of Lemmy, try finding active communities here for: MAME or any other videogame emulation... Plex... The breed of your family dog/cat... Most any sort of non-Fedi-focused brand/podcast/personality...
Yes, I can create a new community. Then I just sit in it by myself, and occasionally deal with spam.
Discoverability is poor on Lemmy and isn't helped by the low user count.
Would be nice to revisit an old idea from Newsgroups, where you could sub to gaming and see everything, or gaming.playstation.ps5 or gaming.emulation.mame or whatever for sub-communities.
But then the decentralised nature works against it there as well.
