Not that anyone cares, but I give up on lemmy

Everything I post, even if factually correct, is downvoted within seconds without explanation

Every thread is a circlejerk of the same 3 topics, I learn nothing on lemmy

I’ve been sending people here everywhere else I go on the internet but I regret it now, every time I log in here it just makes me feel like shit

I really believed lemmy could grow to be an alternative to reddit but it’s 100% not happening and this place is going to die

    I think this just means that the honeymoon is over.

    In all seriousness, this is a common feature of any social media or human experience (hobby, relationship, etc) in general. When something is new and we are in the exciting discovery period, it seems great. After a while, the warts start to show. Some things begin to seem repetitive.

    Lemmy does not have as much content as larger and older social media. It has limitations. the way people vote content is different from other sites because the structure and culture of the platform is different.

    This is not to deny anyone’s experience. If you are no longer enjoying it or getting something out of it, take a break. That’s good advice for any social media.
