The content on all the communities seem different.

Why didn’t the “copycats” get the “this community name has already been taken” message?

It was bad enough at The Other Place finding one overlooked sub about one of your interests.

Now you have to find every single community in every single instance if you hope to talk about your topic?

I mean, look at this:

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world

No Stupid Questions@kbin.social

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.ca

No Stupid Questions@mander.xyz

      I don’t want to have to curate every part of my feed. I find myself missing r/All constantly while browsing the local pages.

      There’s too many responsibilities on the user, which for some people is a huge plus, but for the average consumer is a huge drawback stopping them from joining a new platform.

      FB and Twitter were flourishing for over a decade with me never being a part of it. I’m okay with Reddit flourishing without me, I’m happy where I am right now.

          I miss some niche subreddits but in general I appreciate the digital detox it forced upon me. I can live without these niche communities. It’s not like they provided me with much more than fun trivia or memes on topics I already dabble in either way.
