lots of German speaking channels with several hundreds and thousands of members but no content whatsoever, some of them with no posts for the last 6 months…

  • Well, my experience is running a large lemmy server is pretty annoying and takes a lot of time to actually turn into a social media site with people instead of just bots and you don’t see any improvement for long times. I think after the reddit thing happened technical minded people were able to quickly launch this software but it isn’t what you expect and you eventually stop logging in.
