Pewds has been dabbling more in Linux and engineering content lately, and considering he’s essentially retired and doesn’t rely on YouTube ad revenue anymore, wouldn’t it be amazing if he also started posting his videos on PeerTube in parallel?

He can definitely afford to support decentralized platforms and wouldn’t be held back by monetization concerns. With his reach, even just mirroring his content to PeerTube could bring massive attention to the Fediverse. Do you think he’d ever consider it?

    I hope not. I hope that lemmy doesn’t grow any heavier than it is growing right now. The content is good, it’s enough, most threads have good comments. I don’t want this to become another Reddit. Lemmy is really good as is.

        God bless those people. I hope for more like minded individuals to help them out, but I still would personally not wish for lemmy to have thousands of votes and comments per post. Quality over quantity for me personally.

      This 100%, honestly what lemmy/mbin needs is a clean up of dead communities. That were created and abandoned during the reddit api exodus. As well as the active communities that are just a bot posting content from reddit and nothing else.

        This please. It’s totally fracturing and also misleading, especially in cases when the dead community has the highest # of subscribers!

        Yep. I’ve said this before, but I don’t understand how a community that only provides links to external communities is supposed to help Lemmy grow, as opposed to taking people away 🤷🏻‍♂️

          Yeah it’s like with the AI Gen posts. If they are not willing to put in the effort to post something real. Why should I put in the effort to engage with their content.

      Same. Lemmy reminds me of how Reddit used to be ages ago. Discussions are actually elaborate and thoughtful. The quality of content is so much better. I fear if Lemmy gets too big the quality of content will decline
