From purely practical point of view, what is the selling point of Lemmy for the average user who does not care about the theoretical benefits of software or the open source software movement?
Assumptions:
- The average user will never host a instance.
- The average user is not interested in volunteering or moderation.
- The average user is not looking for NSFW communities or any controversial communities.
In addition to what everyone else has said in the comments, I find that the posts on Lemmy are far more creative. It’s akin to browsing people’s blogs vs Medium articles.
