This is one of those features that might not seem very huge but is a core thing that Reddit can't have. Very cool.

Nice, my favorite so far
What you've expressed is not pessimism it's cynicism.
Is there any answer other than Star Trek?
The largest problem facing wider adoption of Lemmy IMO is that many of the people who were banned from reddit for being poorly socialized ended up on a Lemmy instance, and many of them remain unwilling to view their behavior as the problem.
Many mods/admins need to do a better job of keeping their communities welcoming, imo. Engagement for engagement's sake makes no sense on nonprofit platforms.
I like this lol that's actually what I proposed to do with /r/StarTrek back in '21 but was outvoted
Dude SAME. I find it extremely hard to believe that Google would astroturf Lemmy but it really does feel like all of a sudden in the past ~month a bunch of vague or minor complaints being repeated over and over in every thread.
The difference is that Lemmy is not centralized. So it can't really be over-populated. If an instance is poorly modded and doesn't have that vibe you like you can find one that does. The more people using Lemmy the more options there will be, it's the opposite of Reddit.
Post scheduling is huge! Lots of good stuff in here.
