Ehhhh there's pros and cons to that. r/all on any given day is just bots karma farming off eachother with maybe 1 or 2 good posts mixed in alongside the occasionally genuinely interesting news article, which obviously sucks.
But on the other side there is a TON of threads from the past decade that I know I still read once in a while and I'm sure others do too. Hell just yesterday I was looking for some info on mettalurgy and found a reddit thread where some guy asked my exact question and got good answers like 5 years ago. Having those be more accessible would be great... Plus a lot of niche communities are unfortunately just too small on Lemmy to produce the level of content they do on Reddit
I would love communities like r/asksience to thrive on Lemmy as it does on reddit, that's for sure.
