Active communities. Some of the comms for my interests technically exist, in that they get one post every third month that gets 2 upvotes. Despite everything, these communities are still thriving on Reddit. Yet for whatever reason, any attempt to replicate them here fails. Smh
More users in smaller niche communities. Lemmy has less users in general, so smaller niche communities are practically non-existent here.
I don’t can enough to post enough in there canning, but I’m hoping it’s just well, we’re all waiting for fall and the harvests!
Any amount of positivity and fun. Lemmy users just feel so miserable and argumentative.
I mean sign of the times but damn.

I miss being able to make sarcastic comments without someone telling me I’m the sole reason the world went to shit.
Easy way to look at the context of a reply.
Support from Nebula creators.
Nebula doesn’t have its own comment system, so it’s up to the individual creator where, if at all, they engage their viewers. Most if not all I’ve seen mentions reddit. Some may be on Bluesky too, but as far as I’m concerned Bluesky is just another proprietary platform that can turn into a monetization driven project.
I really want to participate in the jetlag discussions, but I don’t want to log into my reddit accounts ever again. So I’m left with the nebula community here, which is better than nothing, but we’re like 5 accounts that participate monthly.
This might be something to write to your favourite creators about. They want know if it isn’t brought to their attention, and I would certainly enjoy it too. Change takes time, but also effort by the early adopters.
Yeah, problem is I have no other way of contacting them than reddit, and I’m pretty sure my message will get auto-deleted and my account permabanned for trying. I don’t care about the account, but a 10year old account with +80k karma does have some credibility, if I have to use that someday.
More apolitical communities
Niche communities.
90% of the answers in here boil down to more users.
active users specifically
Searching my username + lemmy in the search bar equals every instance except my own for +90% of searches :p
a more active and bigger community
Ability to turn off inbox replies from comments.

Same, seems like a basic thing to block the noise.
IMO it directly contributes to the perceived argumentativeness of lemmy. Comments feel a lot more personal and direct when presented in an inbox vs on the actual thread.
On reddit I turned off replies for everything except the times I was wanting a reply.
Ability to turn off reply notifications on specific posts.
Larger active sports communities. There’s a subreddit for every sport you want to follow, and even for each team. So you can get detailed news specifically for your team, go to game threads for real time discussion for any live game and even go lurk your rival team’s subreddit to enjoy all the complaining after your team beats them. All of that only works with a large active user base and Lemmy just isn’t there yet.
Better SEO and forum answers. I hate having to search “my question + reddit” just to get an answer from a real person. Especially as reddit becomes botted to all hell
More niche shit!
