I posted about that here and forgot < https://lemmy.world/post/896361> but today when I checked cloudflare analytics it showed about 1000 pageviews in last 24 hours. Looks like some people are using it so just wanted to let you guys know that it works, no ads. no popups nothing.

        Because I want Lemmy to succeed and grow, I’m making a real effort to contribute to discussions where previously I’d have just thought things to myself and moved on. I really hope more people do the same so we can start to sustain those more niche forums.

        That’s too many subscribers anyway. 90% of the comments would’ve just been buried and no one would’ve seen them

          Yes, 100 to 200 comments per thread are easily enough, but lots of medium sized subreddits don’t even exist or are barely active on Lemmy.

        Yes, but you’re still right. The niche content isn’t there and won’t be until the user base reaches critical mass, which might never happen.

          Brother I found communities for mushrooms and small birbs where I could share my photos of mushrooms and small birbs.

      My subscribed feed has top posts from days ago. Specific communities like virtual reality or mountain biking or classical guitar are basically empty.

      That said I don’t use reddit and consider my boutique feed a sacrifice to the internet gods until lemmy has more population.

      I’m not sure about others but I’m missing news and information from my home town. Reddit was my go-to for that.
