Controversial opinion: I see more recycled content on Lemmy than Reddit. Comments are usually far better here, but it's an unavoidable reality that there are less people generating new content here. Especially for niche communities.

Hop on over to the niche communities about movies or particular subgenres and they're either dead or recycling stuff. Go to those same niche communities on Reddit and you'll see lots of fresh content all the time. Maybe the main feeds are comparable but if you're into anything niche that isn't computing, privacy, politics or gaming, Lemmy can get a bit stale.

The silver lining, for me, is that I'm doom scrolling less due to the smaller amount of content here. But yeah, we need more creators here (I am not good at coming up with memes)
