I get because I was like that when I first experienced lisp but I like lisp now.

I found it pretty messy when I was going through the land of lisp book but lisp is pretty flexible and you can make it readable.

When I was converting my 3d game engine to hare lang I missing the flexibility of lisp.

Yeah, all the tech jobs dried up where I’m at. If one pops up it is a help desk position.

When I applied to one those help desk position the hr person asked me why are you applying to a job underneath you?

I have 10 years working as a Software Engineer that did mostly ETL tasks

Yeah bootstrapping whats the point reddit already has it and I can talk to people there.

There are people here creating stuff already how about cross posting those post with the handy cross post function of lemmy.

That way it shows little know communities into the bigger communities.

Weird organic posting built communities already how that happen?

So we must cater to this mythical lurkers? If the content is same here as reddit what is stopping lurker just go to reddit.

You got have people making stuff here that will attract people. It’s fools game to copy another platform.

Took years

A community with just post and only one person posting everyday is more dead than an empty one

Still took linux years. You sound like it needs to happen yesterday.

Cross posts isn’t the answer. People see that as an dead community.

what chicken and egg problem. we have the eggs we are just waiting on them to hatch.

You talk about how many accounts are here like some techbro that wants to line go up. It isn’t going to happen. It took linux years to get where for people to see as a solution for their everyday computer and still more edge cases that need to be solve.

you can’t solve everything by cloning a product, you been seen as an inferior especially if you cross post stuff from another social network.

organic is the only way to get things working to attract people that is the unfortunate about these things.

Ah the tired old thing we need the fediverese like x.

Mastodon tried to do it. now you with lemmy.

people on fediverse doesn’t want cross posted stuff. They want stuff from actual people and those poster interacting with the post.

This moderation you are upset about isn’t as much of a problem.

You are trying to speed run reddit here and it isn’t going to work. Just work with what lemmy offers and eventually people will come but it is going to take time.

Sweet
