minus-square@TheMachineStops@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-23 months agoA good example is the Usenet community, in Lemmy there is barely any activity, on reddit people post at least once a week.
minus-squareJoelk111linkfedilinkEnglish11•edit-23 months agoThis is the reason. I can get all the Linux discussion I want on Lemmy, but discussions about an Acura RSX? That community does not exist here.

You can’t participate through RSS.
