People goes where people are. So it takes some major scew up from the current networks. Or a newcomer that have some killer feature everybody will want / need.
Lemmy/Piefed/Etc has a killer feature (or maybe characteristic), but one that only a fraction of users find appealing. Being decentralized makes the network more resistant to many of the problems we see on Reddit and other networks, or at least, reduces their impact.
I think what there users who mostly post and users that mostly comment (I belong to the later). Lemmy could try to bootstrap some of those communities (note: to not make it to specific) by just reposting the same posts that are posted in Reddit and see if that could increase activity.
Same, Lenny isn’t mature enough to have some of the very niche communities yet
It’s not even mature enough to have an active Minecraft community, imagine how’s the situation with smaller or indie games…
It’s not even mature enough to support some mainstream interests, like sports.
no laundry community on Llemmy either…
That’s the problem with changing social networks.

Yeah, it’s not something lots of people will care about. And some eventually stops at “choosing in instance”.

there are plenty of empty communities where the only posters are bots that mirror reddit. it’s clear that doesnt do anything except earn a block
