Helping Lemmy (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Essence9066@lemmy.world to c/general@lemmy.world

I'm fresh from reddit. Lemmy seems great and I wonder what I could do to help? I have a fairly powerful home server, would it help if I ran a Docker instance of Lemmy on it? Spread the load maybe? Thanks for your insights.

Preferably about things other than Reddit.

Good point.. lemmy has a fair amount of content now with the huge influx of users. But at least 60% of it is Reddit talk or just meta about Lemmy

It's understandable, people are excited to talk about the new place and what's happening to the old places is big news. But plenty of people aren't here for news, aren't subbed to those big communities where everyone is discussing that stuff, and would benefit from seeing more activity in their smaller more niche communities.

So anyone seeing this, if you've got a hobby that's more niche than "video games and shitposting", find the community or magazine for it and go do your thing!
