Iโm at least trying to comment more on posts. Breaking the lurker habit is hard.

Commenting and upvoting also shows the best content so its good
Would it be a good idea to cross post large amounts of old Reddit content?
Bring the content over, delete the reddit post, repost to reddit with the fediverse link
I haven't not considered opening my own instance of some flavor named "fuck.spez" or "fuck.you" if i dont want to get sued, scrape the front page of reddit by top 100 subreddits and repost them verbatim. The only (and obvious) obstacles are i have no money so no website.
I think what i'd do is make the instance not possible to sign up for and it'd be exclusively for other instances to federate with for free content? I'm not totally sure if that's how it works though.

100%. No one is here from my niche interest so I made a community and I'm going to post in it every day.
I was looking for a reddit alternative that was similar to how mastodon works and found lemmy. I don't like mastodon very much, but I thought the mastodon concept works much better when you have smaller communities decentralized over multiple instances. Kind of like all those bb-forums back in the day, but through a single interface/client.
So naturally, I do like Lemmy but it still kind of has the same problems I have with Mastodon. I want to go into detail in a full post at a later time, but in general it comes down to the user experience not being great. I have quite a lot of ideas for improvements

Easier said than done. Every time I try to post something it just hangs.
I'm finding that often (not always), the little submit icon just never stops spinning. I can open the page in a new tab or browser, and the comment is there, so obviously it did finish submitting, but in the original tab/window, it just spins forever.

Hello everyone! I must say that it's a bit confusing and all, especially finding new communities. But it seems like it has lots of opportunity!

While I only lurked on reddit, looking forward to a fresh start without all the bots. Planning to start contributing and focus more on hobbies than doomscrolling and nonsense
Don't tell me what to do! Heheheheh
You can't tell me what to do! (Wait...)
Where can I start my own community? There's some things I want but I dont wnat to host my own instance.
At the top of the page there is a Create community button
Just joined today but currently loving the default browser layout, will see what communities are available and start making content.
I'll probably get around to making some of the communities that I miss. I don't know that I have time to moderate, so it's still up in the air.

Even bad content is still content and gets more engagement than nothing.
Tell us how to create communities!
