It's still "fun", but

Because it's a systematic problem. It's not something that can be fixed somehow by better tech or something. So at best we will eventually get one central instance of Lemmy... which is essentially a worse version of Reddit with only Communists and Techy people.

Man, you sure sound like you're fun at parties...

It's a new age, lemmy is a new-ish platform.

Reddit is owned by a company, heck, it IS a company. Lemmy on the other side is a federated network. No one really owns Lemmy. It's like torrents in a way.

Reddit is also almost 20 years old. Lemmy's like what, maybe two? Reddit wasn't super great in 2006 either.

In 2006 Reddit was 90% zombie accounts created by Huffman and Schwartz to drive traffic and lure investors.

It is something that can be fixed by simply developing mod tools. Lemmy as a whole is still in alpha, and the apps have a few bugs. These will be resolved over time.
