I remember suggesting Lemmy to mods of a popular subreddit, during the API Shutdown 2 years ago
They told me they had no idea how to even use it and would rather just use Discord. I check a couple months ago and they still exist on Reddit...
How does Discord even enter one's mind as an alternative to Reddit?
Also, they have no idea how to use it? Bullshit. If they can use Reddit, they can use Lemmy.
With its forum channels, it at least has more of a claim to it than Twitter imo. And I've seen a lot of people claim they're moving to Twitter/Mastodon/Bluesky as a Reddit alternative.
Mostly yes, but to be fair Lemmy was more buggy and less intuitive back then, it was 2 years ago
