Digg:
It had potential, but after becoming an ai news aggregator now there’s none.
Lemmy:
Low engagement / kinda dead. Also, I have heard that the growth is slowing down(somebody pls provide a citation for this).
Besides that, it’s pretty much reddit, for better or for worse.
9gag:
I just made a post there, my first impressions are not good. Got insulted and my post got removed. Now, that might have something to do with me not understanding how the website works, but only time will tell. I will spend more time there to see if it’s worth anything.
Lemmy is not dead at all. It’s just doesn’t have hundreds of millions. There are many vibrant communities, like this one
Outside of Communism, Linux, and Star Trek, there isn’t that much.
Most people aren’t here because of what this place is, but what other places aren’t.
Don’t forget the lesbian hornyposting … or maybe that’s just me feed …
I mentioned Linux.
Some examples:
https://discuss.online/c/peanuts
https://lemmy.world/c/marvelstudios
https://lemmy.world/c/windows11
Exactly. There is a community set up, but posts are daily at best with only a few comments.
Honestly, that’s enough for me. I don’t want to spend hours here. A few minutes are enough.

i see a whole lot of stuff here and not a single communism/startrek post. there are many foss/linux stuff tho
Communism posting is usually on Lemmy.ml, Hexbear.net, and Lemmygrad.ml.
yep so you don’t see them unless you actively subscribe to those communities.
Depends on how you sort, locally or by all, new comments or active.
