    It helps when you realize that a vast majority of Reddit’s content was already reposted from somewhere else.

    I might have been part of the problem on Reddit, just scrolling day after day letting everyone do the work. Can’t do that here…and I don’t mind being the ahole who steals it anymore. We can build this better, but it’ll take some time and effort. (and a alot of shit posting)

    I am trying to build a (relatively fringe) community but I feel bad about reposting stuff, so I don’t. On the other hand it’s really hard making up new memes all the time and I end up trashing most ideas because they just feel very forced.

      This is exactly where I’m struggling too. I recently got really into Planet Zoo and love seeing other people’s creations. But Reddit is a pain to go to, and the official forums are just people endlessly listing different animals, they’re completely pointless. So I want to make a Planet Zoo community here, but I’m also horrible at making stuff. So I try to find other people’s creations but Reddit is a pain to go to…and it’s just an endless cycle.

    Think of all the upvotes you’re getting! Maybe somewhere in the future you can cash those in for real money

    I think reposts from reddit could be really beneficial for lemmy , cause part what made reddit great was that it was basically a content libary, that had the answers to a lot of questions and in turn drove people to the side. On lemmy we still have to build that libary
