  • You can switch to "Top of 6h", "Top of 12h", or "New comments"

  • Instance names and stuff like that should be available to people who want to see them, but by default there’s little reason to frighten new users with it.

    https://piefed.social/ hides the instance name of communities in the feed

  • Maybe Discord indeed.

    Good luck.

  • I don’t think that hosting both would be a good idea, as it’d create fragmentation in an already niche area.

    Indeed, pick one. I prefer Piefed nowadays due to flairs, more granular support for moderation, and other stuff.

    Voyager started Piefed experimental support today: https://lemmy.world/post/31839818

  • Another thing: Why don’t creators of threads have the option to admin their own threads? It’s their thread! It wouldn’t be appropriate for discussion threads (for obvious reasons), but for interpersonal posts and questions, it makes perfect sense for the creator to be able to have control over what appears in the thread to keep it on topic and the trolls at bay. It’s pretty rare to see a post where someone asks a question that doesn’t quickly devolve into an offtopic mess, and the creator is usually attacked for trying to bring it back on topic. This has made Reddit useless for question-answering (and besides, the most upvoted answer is almost always wrong.)

    This would probably quickly devolve into OP removing any comments they disagree with

  • Onboarding is difficult, because you have to choose an instance, which is hugely important, but a newcomer has no idea what makes/is a good community to join

  • Duplicate communities posting the same content over and over again.

    Piefed solves that issue: https://piefed.zip/post/100161

    All comments from 5 crossposts in a single view

    A few options

    How many communities will die because lemm.ee is shutting down?

    Active communities have moved elsewhere:

    Inactive communities weren't active in the first place.

  • I'm the main poster on !football@sopuli.xyz. Most popular post on the planet.

    I guess people on Lemmy just don't like sports.

  • Mods seem inactive.

    If people are interested in that topic (or any other), they can join !fedigrow@lemmy.zip. That community regroups people trying to grow communities, and the issues they face.

  • Thank you for your feedback! No need for a code, but knowing that sign ups are disabled is already a sign 😄
