Honestly, I agree that it's generally pretty "dead" (esp. compared to Reddit), but to your second point, I still use Lemmy exclusively because I really do like the idea. Plus, it's already good enough to be a fairly viable Reddit replacement imo.

Of course Lemmy doesn't yet offer the same variety of content that reddit does but there are still very active discussions on the frontpage right now. Just on page one of my instance there is one post with 300+ comments and 5 more with 100+. Calling it a "ghost town" is just such an exaggeration that I felt the need to call it out.
