All I know is that i can mindlessly scroll for about 2 hours before I start hitting the NSFW content, at which point refreshing the feed sifts the new stuff to the top and is still good for another hour or so

I run into a lot of the same names, but I think that's fine (if not preferable)

I've never seen nsfw stuff on Lemmy actually, neither did I see star trek

I used to see non-stop NSFW stuff about a year ago, but it seems better now.

neither did I see star trek

I don't believe you.

I find it's about 5 pages in, sometimes as little as three depending on whether or not someone on lemmynsfw started a new community and self-spammed it.

Maybe even several dozens

At least a dozen right?

There's enough shit posts to keep most people happy.

The active user base is trending slightly downward as a few instances have shut down recently but the amount of registered users is steadily increasing so those trends will reverse as the largest barrier to entry is just knowing about Lemmy and creating an account.

I'm practically a fixture on Lemmy, and I view everything sorted by newest comments so I see only new posts and posts actively being participated in through replies and I'd say it's only slightly less active than Reddit appearance wise. Surely there is less things being posted over all, but I can just refresh the page every few seconds and get entirely new posts almost every single time, barring a few hours in the middle of the week.

I know that someone has a statistic site for Lemmy that could actually show you exactly what you wanna know, but I haven't saved the URL and don't know it off the top of my head.

Can confirm that sorting by new comments makes it appear a lot more active. There's a reason why old forums' only sorting method was thread bumping.

Reddit is very quiet lately, probably due to school breaks

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 6 days ago (2 children)

The dips I see on Lemmy are probably from people actually working. I at least have a job where nobody cares if I use my phone because I can still work while fucking around on it, so long as it's not in the dining room where customers can see me.
