Holy shit. How did you get to know about Lemmy and why did you join?
Not OP but reddit and the piracy subreddit
At the time I knew what the fediverse was and I was using Mastodon quite consistently, and I was waiting for a federated alternative to reddit. Raddle at the time was already a thing, but federation was not on their roadmap.
As per how I found it... here's a comment from four years ago :)
huh I'm close
The hero we need, but not the one we deserve

Just since The Incident at the Other Place.
Before the dark times. Before the Empire.
In the before times, in the long long ago

June 22nd, 2023.
I was simultaneously desperately hoping RIF for Reddit wouldn't die...
Now however, I'm still sad about RIF, but very happy about being here on Lemmy!
More than 3 years now
Counting from my first account almost 4 years, a bit over 3 year on this one

16 June 2023 - my account appears newer than that because I switched instance.
Longer than I thought. When I tried to register I was annoyed that the username was taken, but it turned out they also dropped the info in my password manager back in 2021!
See my cake day.
June 1st, 2023 = 102 days
July 26th 2020, a day that will live on in infamy as the first day of Hexbear.

My very first account was in Feb of 2022, but i kinda abandoned it until the 3rd party apps blackout on June 12. Then i came back and really started to kick the tires.
since the beginning of time! Like 2 months ago, it was a Tuesday I think.
3 days now. I miss the abuse of reddit. Jk
Since January 2021. I left Lemmy for about a year, then came back during the Reddit blackout.
June 7th, 2023
I signed up to see what it was about during the Redditmageddon. I'm still on both sites and always will be though.
2-3 months I think? I could check, but that's just too much effort.
Like it a lot so far though!
3 months.
Since the day before the Reddit strike⦠so mid June?
Just a few months ago.
December of 2022. I was moving away from closed-source social media, and after Twitter -> Mastodon, Reddit was next. I didn't become active til the whole API thing tho, because Lemmy didn't have some communities that I liked. So I made one lol
