Every other post is about that site.

It’s like getting a new girlfriend but constantly talking about your ex.

Because reddit never has operated that way. Posts aren't news. Posts are things on people's minds. Opinions will always outnumber events. Especially when those events may not have a big impact on their lives. And to be honest, I see more complaints about "let's not discuss reddit" than I do discussing reddit. My guess is you're confusing the amount of content that gets posted to your instance. It's not nearly as much as reddit so you'll see all the low voted content just as often. That content never makes it to other instances though. So it's not so much a Lemmy problem, but a lemmy.world problem is my guess.
