I mean, for something that is meant to provide cotent for near-every niche or interest out there, it is nearly nothing. On Reddit, both Dota2 and War Thunder are more than half-way there every week, and those are both niche, and not particularly topical. Frankly, for the average user, Lemmy doesn't have enough content to be relevant.
Dont get me wrong, I'm still here and still hopeful for the Fediverse's success but blaming the user and pretenting the problems don't exist isn't helping the problem, and instead just makes us look like elitists and assholes. We're the ones trying to make a product for them, not the other way around. If you want the platform to be appealing to standard users, stop whining, and start posting more or otherwise contributing more to the platorm.

The "you" was meant to be a more general you, rather than you specifically, although my point is the same. Launching a social media site is a herculean task, and requires the effort (or funding) to match. Its up to those trying to establish the platform to put in the effort, not the ones we're trying to "sell" to, and insulting or blaming them just makes us look like assholes.
