    Impressive, I guess, but how many of those 2 million posts have a single comment? If 90% of these are just bots reposting things from Reddit with no further engagement…

      The content will bring in users. I try to comment on interesting topics to help drive engagement.

        This is my thoughts as well. I’ve noticed that once one or two people express interest in a post, it tends to get much more traffic

    Man, I really hope more traffic starts heading into some of the more niche communities because getting a new thread every day or there and getting 1 or 2 replies - if that - is not how you sustain a site.

    Are there really that few people into cars or engineering or DIY stuff on Lemmy?! Where the fuck are my fellow car and tinkering nerds at? And no one does projects around the house? So few posts in some of the home owner communities as well.

    All I’m missing is the more niche communities to grow. It’s good to see lots of memes and engagement but a man needs more.
