Excerpt:

Most major subreddits show a decrease of between 50 and 90 percent in average daily posts and comments, when compared to a year ago. This suggests the problem is way fewer users, not the same number of users browsing less. The huge and universal dropoff also suggests that people left, either because of the changes or the protests, and they aren’t coming back.

My biggest issue is that community discovery is difficult. I browse through the Memmy app and joining communities that are new or niche is really hard. Often times links just don’t work, it might be because I’m on a smaller instance, but it’s difficult to find communities targeting my interests because of this.

If your instance doesn't know about a community yet, you need to try loading it twice. First time it'll give an error, second time will work.

How do I search a community that my instance doesn’t know about to try and find it in the first place, I must apologize for my ignorance, but I’ve never found a good explainer on the finer details of federation.

Personally, I use Lemmyverse explorer and check @tcbot_uam@feddit.uk's trending communities.

Maybe I'm just terminally online but on lemmy.world I just go on /all instances and browse by top last hour and I easily get to the end of the stack.

Try browsing by top six hour!
