Or maybe people just need to stop saying "Lemmy" and instead say "Voyager", or "Boost for Lemmy" or whatever app they would suggest to use?
It's like Linux, I don't suggest people to install Linux because that's not a thing, I suggest they install Bazzite or Fedora KDE, or whatever I think will suit them best
Maybe we need a sort/filter for posts with 0 comments, like a "Needs Comments" filter... Might be worth submitting a feature request on Lemmy and PieFed?
If you're suggesting to your friends you can pick whichever instance you want, but the point is you should choose for them and don't even tell them that there is a choice
I guess we'll see how it compares lol. It's possible it's better than Mastodon, but it is also possible that it's worse.
