If so, how'd you hear about lemmy?

It feels like everyone here came from reddit but I'm curious if anyone found lemmy organically

I created my account a couple years before any of the recent reddit migrations. I am always interested in alternatives to the status quo and simply searched in DDG "reddit alternatives" one day and bam, Lemmy came up.

I signed up, but honestly I barely used it back then as the traffic was miniscule.

I kind of just hung onto this account and it ended up being my main social media outlet now that there's more people here. I'm hoping Lemmy thrives and attracts more users. It is objectively better than Reddit, it just needs more users and communities imho.
