Lemmy is too small for content discovery to be a big issue IMO. Around this time of day – when prime evening hours for engagement are falling mostly over the empty Pacific ocean, the feed is rather slim pickings while watching the All feed. There are not enough people to support they ultra hyper niches I am most interested in. That is not a matter of discovery it is a matter of size.
Getting into the broader fediverse, that needs some work. Like use my account here to create credentials on other fediverse platforms and things will grow much faster.
Yeah I feel most communities don’t stand a chance. Smaller communities are now split between multiple instances. A small subreddit that would get 2-3 posts a day is now 6 separate Lemmy communities on separate instances that post once a week.
Consolidation regularly happens, see !fedigrow@lemm.ee
