I kind of feel like Reddit is the biggest bar in the world and having a conversation there feels like it. If you aren’t loud and early, you can’t really participate in a meaningful way. The smaller crowd of Lemmy is a sweet spot for me. Enough people that it’s not dead, but small enough that I can still participate in conversations.

Most popular english communities are already too big though. They're always flooded with comments, and sometimes everyone says exactly the same, such as if they didn't read through the comments before commenting themselves. Discussions on, e.g., c/ich_iel@feddit.org are much more fun.
