I think the problem with Lemmy is that people assume Lemmy is reddit instead of one lemmy-instance is reddit.
So people attribute a culture to the whole of Lemmy instead of an instance.
People should focus more on one instance and grow a culture. It will automatically attract more of that type of person.
Just try to interact with people because it is fun or you have something to share that you are passionate about. As my doctor said: "Don't force that shit.".
And most important is that people stop talking about content like it is heroin. It is becoming pathetic.
