    In reality, you can easily just as easy make your own version of a community. The idea of community isnt that every person needs to listen to your ideas because youre brillant but that if you happen to find people centered around the same idea (which can also be less moderation), you wont be hindered by central admins.

      That’s no different to Reddit though, and it doesn’t work there. Everyone congregates on the “default” most populated subs/communities. Making a new one pretty much never works. It takes the previous one being closed or completely changed for any alternative to get any traction.

        Of course its no different to reddit. Lemmy is supposed to work similar. The big difference here is that it is less homogenous. You can see that there are many different communities for the same topics that are even similar in numbers. The top down capitalist rule isnt the default and not the best or only one that works. Its what we all were socialized in.
