It seems like any platform that features link aggregation is soon overrun by bots and self-promoters trying to drive traffic, and pages and pages of link posts versus pages and pages of people talking.

Are there any lemmy instances or other defederated networks that focus on Q&A, niche communities, and people conversing, instead?

    Honestly do you have any examples of this happening here on Lemmy? Lemmy is not Reddit.

    I always thought there was no big difference between link aggregators and forums, and that the first is more an extension of the other, at least it felt like it in my experience. What would you say really sets them apart?
