Your problem is browsing Everything. There's a lot of content on Lemmy that isn't meta-posting - you just need to curate your own feed, like on Reddit.

Subscribe to some more casual places for a funner frontpage.

Thanks. On reddit when I was bored of my frontpage I'd go on /r/all to check out other subs and maybe subscribe if I liked the content. That has been my strat here and it isn't panning out so far. Looks like I gotta change it up.

Everything on Lemmy is cancer

Edit: I'm obviously talking about the "Everything" tab, curated Lemmy is great.

Cool. Goodbye then.

Bye 👋

Joking aside, I'm talking about the "Everything" tab. Just like r/all on Reddit, it gets cancerous fast. And that's a sign of a growing community.

Depends on what you subscribe to like and favorite all has been very fun to me

[–] isVeryLoud@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah it's obviously a matter of opinion :)

Enjoy your "Everything" tab!

If all sucks my advice would be stop subing to meta feeds i just get science and cat and star trek memes in mine

Thanks for this!

Thanks for this. Now I just have to hope some of the communities I briefly looked through like the history related ones don't suffer from usdefaultism. It seems like meta and defaultism kills all interests for me.
