I don't know if others are experiencing a similar situation. My all feed is very sparse with engagement. If I sort top six hours or by top 12 most posts have between 5-10 comments. I feel like there was more in the past? Is engagement dropping off? I'm on lemmy.world as my instance.
to the contrary, when I first joined lemmy around august it was easy to clear the /all feed and lately it's full all day no matter how little grass i see
from my perspective all of it is far more active, i get more upvotes these days then when I first started using lemmy for instance many comments would sit at 1 but that's pretty rare now.
Sometimes. I see a lot more monological thinking here because the average Lemmy user skews extensively towards one side. I don't mind the lack of comments but they don't seem to crack more nuanced layers that I used to see on Reddit (by the way: not necessarily layers that I agreed with). It could also be a consequence of me getting old and starting to outgrow this category of social media. I don't know.
