I just found out how to add more…instances? I want to call them subreddits but that’s not it lol but I like it, and so far I’ve curated enough for it to keep me interested while scrolling. I do understand that everyone is still getting their footing, I definitely am, so it won’t be perfect or exactly what I want. You really gotta take time to discover and explore the feddiverse, it seems quite big.

I think if we want this space to be a great reddit alt, we gotta put the effort in making it so!

I’m not bad about it. Trying to contribute more and hopefully help this place grow!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I find all to be rather good, and don’t miss r/all that much. There are much less news which I miss. And then there are the niche communities that don’t really exist. I’m very hopeful though!

LOVING it!!!! It's very similar to reddit as far as content goes, but its better in the sense that im not being bombarded with rage bait!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I like it. The memes and entertainment are growing and good enough for me. But the knowledge base needs more input so that it can be used at some point as discussion forum for problems in different categories. Like the old Reddit were you could search if people had this problem and solved it etc etc.

I love it and created my own instance!!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Good so far. Communities here are less active and I am still using old.reddit.com for stuff that has no equivalent community here yet, but just gonna give it time and re-search for the missing stuff every so often to see if any of it has been added anywhere.

Adjusting slowly. I feel about as isolated with a sense of pseudo-connection that dies off the moment I stop typing my reply here as I did on reddit, if anything less content here with a less aggressive algorithm keeps me from getting into scrolling loops and lets me actually do shit with my day.

It's a bunch of people chopping it up. I'm a fan. Mostly cause it's not apart of any economic system probly.

I prefer the smallish community size over the vast sea of opinion that is reddit.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Loving it. Haven't been back to Reddit in days. Don't foresee that changing.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I never used twitter, so i had no expectations when I used Mastodon.

I was a little hesitant with Lemmy since I use reddit so much. I'm liking it way more than I thought!

It's obviously less content, but as far ss my day-to-day use, i don't miss much. Hardest part was finding different communities to sub to, but there are enough directory sites around to help out with that.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

It has less content, but enough for me to scratch that itch, and it's not necessarily a bad thing that it's not an infinite stream of addiction. There's definitely an onboarding and discovery problem, but I think it's a solvable problem.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I'm loving hanging out with y'all.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Honestly, I like it here. I've started to migrate mid-June and I got involved way more than in 5y of reddit. I'm definitely not looking back.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

So far it's good.I think over time it'll keep growing on me

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I like it a lot, but I do miss the multi-reddit feature, several communties in one feed. But so far, so good!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

It's fine but god dammit all the network effects and preexisting communities (Reddit has one for EVERYTHING) will all be gone now, through no fault of Lemmy

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Gerally it's decent.... I don't use it anywhere near as much as I used Reddit but I'm not sorry to see the back of that place.

It can be a little buggy sometimes, responses dont post or further posts fail to load. I think the lack of consistency is whynim using it less at the moment but overall, happy chappy :)

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I'm digging it so far. Nothing to complain about. Just being patient with it's growth. Great potential.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I like it very much! Everything comes naturally into place for me, I've had no issues adapting as of today. Already feels like home, and it's really nice to be here.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I've noticed that I come across the same posts more frequently on my front page here than on Reddit. Perhaps it would be solved as the userbase continues to grow. Other than that, I have no complaints. This platform is a perfect substitute for Reddit, if not better.

I don't know how it works, I don't know what I'm doing and I'm loving it.

Not sure yet. Still getting the hang of it. I'll give a few more days/weeks but I thin the promise is there.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Reddit felt so damn simple to use where this is an absolute cluster fuck of complexity in comparison. It really needs to be simpler if there are hopes to take down reddit. Hopefully with boost and sync devs making a client things may improve.

I'm getting used to Lemmy, really enjoying my experience so far. I'm using the Jerboa app and it has honestly worked very well. Slowly discovering more communities to join. I think I'm here to stay (and mostly lurk)
