Struggling to get into Lemmy (lemmy.world)

Posing this on a whim since I tend to be a lurker on Reddit, but I am really struggling to get into Lemmy. Part of it is that I'm used to lurking but now we all have to put a little more work into not lurking in order to start to get the content we want, but also I have yet to find the sort of shitposting content I guess I'm looking for. Maybe that's for the best, not really sure. I'm sure I will get used to it if I commit, but I really need some more communities that'll really capture me

Sorry for the rambly post, really just putting this out there in a communal spirit

I had the same feeling. Then I realise that we don’t have shitpost but quality post.

There is less, but more valuable. As a consequence as well there is way less toxicity, which is quite nice.

It makes looking at Lemmy more relaxing that scrolling Reddit, imo.

Yes could not stand the constant barrage of dumb front page news with posts similar to “Trump did not pay for dinner during his press conference!!! And posts raging about random tweets.
