    My post was mostly lighthearted. But ir might be concerning that Lemmy doesnt incentive activity somehow . Aggregators are as good as how many people participate

      I’m not sure there’s less incentive to post generally, but there’s less incentive to repost old stuff, misleading headlines, etc.

      I don’t think incentivizing activity was a Lemmy goal (please correct if I’m wrong). If people have something valuable to share, that thing will be upvoted.

      Incentivizing activity is a Silicon Valley tactic to increase value of a company through grabbing people’s time and attention. Lemmy doesn’t care about this.
