It feels like many Lemmy instances end up trying to be “Reddit replacements,” which results in dozens of very similar communities with overlapping topics. I wonder if it would make more sense for each instance to focus on a broad topic, like sports, literature, or technology, and then have communities for the subtopics within that.
What are your thoughts? Do you prefer many general instances, or would you rather see topic-focused instances?
I think if you’re a milquetoast shit liberal whose politics are at home with /r/politics there’s literally no reason to be here but hey that’s just me i guess, maybe we do need 27 identical websites with the same dumb fuckers posting the same stupid shit
