I think this place is too fragmented into instances to ever generate a front page anywhere near what r/all is.
If I understand this page right, https://lemm.ee will never show the top post of the day from https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/, https://discuss.tchncs.de/, or https://feddit.uk/.
And the “front page/general” site is already split into several instances (https://vlemmy.net/, https://lemmy.world/, https://sh.itjust.works/, https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/ and https://lemmy.one/, all claiming to be “a general front page lemmy instance”)
So what’s the deal, which one are we betting on as the place to direct all the new traffic? What’s the contender for primary public internet bulletin board? Right now the arrow to an alternative is looking like this: https://i.imgur.com/L1XsBy6.pngd
I’m personally guessing the conclusion is already reached; We have no place we’re betting on. We’re disinterested in pushing for any particular result. We don’t expect people to migrate. Many might not even want them to.
Ayy LMAO wth are you talking about?
Check stats from beehaw
Sopuli
Just some random examples, because the new BIG servers haven’t even started registering on the stats. Speaking of new servers, the number of servers have DOUBLED since last month to over 160 instances.
The lemmyverse have grown like never before
Wow, it grew from dozens to hundreds!
You should’ve seen way more. You weren’t good enough to retain anything near the potential, the majority of replies to people suggesting the fediverse as an alternative commented or upvoted sentiment indicating that that didn’t like what they saw. The rest, a minority, were mostly along the lines of “It’s strange, but not that bad.”
It doesn’t help that you promote instances that look like something from a temp-mail domain. Way to advertise.
