The people who don't want to stick with Lemmy are the people we don't want on Lemmy.

I see this as a win.

as a realist, allowing porn would do wonders ngl

Give it time.

There is no way in the fucking world someone is going to ask me to feel bad about a social media platform failing in 2023. Like, get fucked.

Well, Lemmy is really not good at pushing new content/new posts and/or new communities to people. For many of us, that might be a boon: less algorithmic shenanigans, less "steering" of the user. Yet, if you are not a user who likes to actively seak out stuff, your feeds will look stale and slow-paced very quickly. There might be new stuff,.but the feeds struggle to find a middle ground between "only the upvoted stiff you subscribed to", "the always same server wide top posts" and "bleeding edge new stuff". It's also very reluctant to sprinkle on new communities.

I think that's a main contributor to the decline.

For the record: kbin is more liberal when it comes to that sort of stuff. So if you like a more active feed, you might want to try kbin. If you like your feed to be controlled by you more, use Lemmy.

I would be on here more if you could block entire instances. If its possible at this point, its not as straight forward as mastodon.
