I like that its federated to prevent hierarchical abuse. I dislike the seams of that federation reducing ease of use and reducing population growth, thus reducing the size of niche "Communities" (as Lemmy generically calls them).

I need my subs so I still visit Reddit begrudgingly if only for those. Once those more niche communities grow even slightly big enough for a common back and forth though I'll probably fully abandon Reddit.

It's not bad! UI could use a few tweaks on Mobile though.

Enjoying it so far. It is definitely taking some getting used to. Was testing Liftoff! And now on Memmy. Finding Memmy to be more enjoyable especially with being able to set dark for ease of visibility.

Just fine. Spent last week editing all my comments with PDS. On Monday, I deleted my account and I'm only here so far.

Social media in general has been shit. Not that they ever were very good, but it seems to be worse.

Enjoying it a lot. Set up my own instance to try out, and exploring a lot of others. I enjoy the community a ton!

Really miss Sync, but am living well enough with Connect until Sync for Lemmy is released.

I really love it. Even though I miss a few subreddits, Lemmy feels much like early Reddit, and it scratches an itch I've felt for many years.

Quite well. It motivated me to build my own Lemmy client and it makes me enjoy Lemmy a lot more!

[-] ohlaph@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm interested in doing the same. Can you walk through what you did?

High quality content makes my scrolling more enjoyable and less depressing.

BUT vastly smaller community means it's harder to get questions answered. Reddit was my goto for all kinds of things that I have now turned to ChatGPT for.

the site loads way faster for me than reddit ever did, to the point that I'm actually stoked about it

Things can only get better!

I am enjoying the experience I must admit and I can't wait to see how things pan out 6 months from now. I am certainly sticking with it for the long run. Wefwef.app is amazing to interact with.

Been using Thunder through Test Floght and it’s been pretty nice. I’m sure with time it’ll get better and more populated but I don’t mind the calm right now.

I'm a cat and currently I'm loafing in a corner of the room on my own cushion.

Translation: I am enjoying the peaceful moment looking at people doing their things here.

[-] OsakaWilson@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's good. It has the pre-Digg.com migration vibe that early Reddit had. Niche communities are hard to get started, but that's to be expected.

Lots of positivity.

[-] irondale@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

just joined and i’m happy to be here! using wefwef as i miss apollo a lot.

[-] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's good. You get accustomed to something, so there's still a little loss there, but this platform has a lot of promise and I appreciate all of you who make it what it is!

[-] Sinker1345@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Is actually really nice, I like the separated servers. I can generally filter the amount of communities I see from just my interests, to my local server and then wider. One I found out I could search for and join communities I realized I could stay here

[-] Lord_Logjam@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm enjoying the discovery phase a lot more than I did with Mastodon, which I've largely abandoned now. It still has a way to go but it's fun seeing it grow.

[-] Joe@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I haven't been able to find an answer for this, so here goes... How many accounts on different instances does everyone have?

I have three and have started subscribing to different stuff to try and curate my experience (I'm missing multi-reddits), but I'm not sure what's the optimal experience as my all timelines often show very similar content on each account
