Lemmy at first was Abit barren but I'm super happy with it now. Let's hope we don't see reddit collapse and the masses turn their attention here like the digg event

My biggest complaint is it's dominated by memes, and in a distant second is news, and that's kinda it. We need so much more diverse content still.

Be the change you want to see!

Anyway those are probably the lowest effort content which is why you see it most. Over time though the other forms will come. Most of Reddits front-page is memes and news for the same reason.

Feel free to have a look at !newcommunities@lemmy.world for other active communities

What I do to get around that is: subscribe to communities that are not memes, news, or tech, then read new posts by "subscribed" and "scaled". When I run out of those, read "all" to find new communities to subscribe to.
