It's what happens with a small community. Interaction and discussion VS lowest common denominator humour for mass votes.

We all want Lemmy to succeed, but that only means that it'll turn back into reddit. It's the natural cycle of social media.

Possibly but at least Lemmy is federated.

Come a day, we'll all end up back on Fark and the cycle will repeat itself.

I told my gf, who I met on Reddit, about migrating from Fark to Reddit, and I'm trying to get her to join us here... but now she went and is exploring Fark, which is somehow still around, and I'm like you're doing it wrong!

I never knew what asinine meant until I used fark... It was educational in many ways, for sure.

I dunno, I think there's still some rose colored glasses going on

I was seriously considering going back to Slashdot.
