I love lemmy, however because it is young it doesn’t have a lot of users. This leads to many communities becoming dormant. I want to talk about stuff besides linux and privacy, so I say we should bring some content from outside (Reddit). I will to post stuff to !pixelart@lemmy.ml and !catsareliquid@lemmy.ml and am thinking about making communities about Amphibia and Infinity Train. I encourge you guys to do the same.

    I’m kinda inclined to disagree on the basis that it’d be interesting to see how Lemmy conventions and behavior manifest naturally. Lemmy doesn’t necessarily have to be like anything before it, even if it’s similar

      That’s up to every instance/community to decide. I agree that’s a very good policy for lemmy.ml, but rather disagree it’s a good policy for lemmy software. Personally, i believe interop between ActivityPub, webmention, matrix and XMPP is key to the decentralized ecosystem taking off… but i don’t think it’s the responsibility of a specific of software to interop with every other federated networks, but rather a network-wide responsibility.

      Agreed, we shouldn’t seek to port content, but to share our own interests and have our own natural discussions.
