Possibly because many users coming to Lemmy are pissed off by something. It’s not a platform for fun users, but for grumpy old cats wanting their unachievable utopian discussion forum, where all behave the same as they do. ;)
It took a really long time for Reddit to reach a point to where it was decent and attracting new communities. I am hoping all the niche little places move over to Lemmy, or at least off Reddit.
If there is a niche community you miss, you could start it over here. I have no idea how to go about doing it, but it might be worth it for you. Start making this the better place.
Lemmy has no users and the content is shitty memes and lame cartoon panels. It’s got no niche communities, which is what made Reddit good.
I was early to Reddit. I think my account was created around 2007. I can assure you that it was similar to Lemmy now. Building a community takes time.
The comic book strips on Lemmy seem to be depressing.

Criticise lemmy and prepare for downvotes deluxe.

Perhaps instead of pissing and moaning you could actually post something in a community here to start the process of growing new forums.
