    Please check out this KSP community: Https://Lemmy.world/c/ksp

    They’ve got some lovely members who wish to share and contribute, however I feel I’ve let the community down by not helping post as much as I should have recently. It’s a shame to see such great people share, knowing it’s such a small community seeing it right now.

    They’re real MVPs

    Please give the community a hand and just share a random craft or screenshot you may still have; even a favourite video! No pressure, just help it with a bit of traction so it becomes more self sufficient.

    Shout out to ilovecheese & obsidian & moeggz on there! :)

    These daily posts about user count wrapped in stupid memes are making me want to leave lol.

    I love the concept of fediverse and lemmy, but why bother posting this stuff?

    It’s honestly pretty stable at this point. There’s only maybe one or two bugs left but it’s very usable. I’ve enjoyed the conversations I’ve had on here too.

    I felt lemmy was successful the first time I was attacked by a hyperfixated debatelord just like on reddit. If cloning the reddit experience in the fediverse was the goal, for me mission accomplished 👍

      It’s the best of both worlds. When I’m in a fightin’ mood it’s easy enough to find a troll to mess with. But at the same time I’ve found a lot of lovely small communities where everyone is polite and focused on sharing their experiences rather than attacking others for theirs. It was harder to find communities like that on reddit, they existed, but maybe just not for the interests I held at the time.

      HA! So true!! One thing you can do here you can’t on reddit is pick fights with instances.

    People here in the Lemmy website/ community should focus their efforts on quality of the content.

    As time goes on, various issues gradually goes away with incremental improvements. Anything from code, UI, features & function.

    Let’s utilize lean methodology here. Starting with the 3S; Sweap, Sort & Standardize. :)

    I’ve been making a post daily in !nytconnections@lemmy.world and !crossword@lemmy.world for 4 months now. Whatever small community we have there, I’m grateful for it. We’re also happy to accommodate many more people and grow.

    If there isn’t a community for something you care about, make one. People will come.

      Yeah, no, putting other people down is not the way to go, and is usually a trait of social networks I tend to avoid. Here’s what you could have said:

      Lemmy may have fewer people, but it has more passionate people.

    People within subject x, y, z are tolerable, even beneficial, and I enjoy their company. People in general are boneheaded and infantile.

    Also, remember that Lemmy is a small open source project with only two or three full time devs and the rest being from community contributions. Lemmy is also entirely supported by user donations and an NLnet grant. I feel like too many people are coming here and basically expecting corporate level customer service and user experience just without the corporate enshitification, which is not a fair expectation for such a small and grassroots platform.

    Lemmy is also very young and very much still in beta, it only started federating like two years ago. Keep that in mind as well.

    I sort of disagree, abusive power mods / admins can ruin your interaction with any community, big and small. The only thing that varies is how much of an effect that they can have and whether you have the bad luck to get targeted by their small insecure egos.
