!movies@lemmy.world is almost only composed of a single poster sharing articles from the Guardian.
!movies@piefed.social has a diverse mod team, with dedicated threads for movies, weekly discussion threads, and people sharing their own reviews.
In the case of ‘movies’ used in the OP at the end, Piefed.social has much less users than Lemmy.world, so that does not really fit what you are saying.
No idea, as much as I like Piefed, I’m not the biggest fan of the whole pie imagery related to it.
Curious to see what other people will come up with!
That could indeed be the case, but that’s probably a low priority item for most of the client devs.
I had been asking Rimu to add this feature for a while as Lemmyverse doesn’t show Piefed communities on the community search, and as a lot of people use Lemmyverse to search for communities, Piefed communities are basically invisible.
This solves it, if other clients want to implement it too, that would be nice of course
It’s the opposite, you only see the communities from a certain feed
You still don’t see the number of weekly active users.
On Piefed, it’s the ‘Active people’ column, where you can see the numbers without having to go to each community. Lemmy (and Photon in this case) only show subscribers, which isn’t an accurate metric as most of them are ghost accounts.
Lemmy’s view does not allow to search and keep the data about active users, you immediately get into this view that doesn’t show active users
Curious, I’ve found Lemmy search to be okay. I don’t search a lot on Piefed, so I can’t compare.
The text search on Piefed is similar to Lemmyverse. Example for ‘movies’
The average reddit user isn’t indeed looking for an alternative, so they’re unlikely to welcome any suggestion anyway
Trust me, I’ve tried several times
They definitely lose by missing you!
That’s probably the mod team rather than the site as a whole. /r/RedditAlternatives has regular discussions about Lemmy and the Fediverse, so at least that sub is ok
I think I’ll post it to !fedimemes@feddit.uk
Welcome !
