Although I originally thought that AskLemmy was made as an equivalent to AskReddit, it’s clearly different. On Reddit’s it was limited to open-ended “thought-provoking” questions meant for discussion, whereas here it seems like anything goes. The purpose of this community seems to be much broader, that or it’s just totally unmoderated lol. Not that that’s necessarily a bad thing.
But maybe there should be another community for just the sorts of open-ended questions that we saw on Reddit
Yeah. Lemmy has no where near the users that Reddit has, which is good because Lemmy couldn’t currently support anywhere near that number.
It is also going to depend on which instance can scale to that size.
