Social network Reddit recently began blocking mobile visitors to its website while pushing them to download the official Reddit app, and it's fair to say that the move is not going down well with users. If you visit reddit.com on your iPhone today, you may see a new popup that can't be dismissed, asking you to "get the app to keep using Reddit".
I think what he’s saying is that if a community on lemmy isn’t politics, linux, or animal pictures, you can make a new community all you want. But if nobody visits/posts, is it really a community?
Ah, that could be it. And yeah, that’s a bit harder to solve, that stuff just takes time and effort and a bit of luck.
