Hey there! I’m another Reddit refugee looking to make a new home here. After a couple of false starts (not with Lemmy) I finally looked at this site for ease of use. I’m hoping to bring over a few other Reddit refugees from my favourite subs in the near future and expect to be settling in quite soon. I’m also wanting to create a community for my special interest - just not sure how I’ll go about that at the moment since there’ll be a couple of decisions to be made. Now for a proper look around.

Hey, there - I'm a recent Reddit refugee, mostly because of Huffman's approach to the mods and users during the API crisis, not exactly because of the apps themselves (never used them). That was only the culminating reason I left Reddit, however, as it was becoming a right-wing cesspool in many ways. Settled on this instance after lurking for a while (although midwest.social is pretty great as well) and I'm enjoying the vibe so far. Specialty is memes, pop culture, and music. Check out my new community here:

Well ok… I’m an old timer who’s been around the ‘net since the days of dialup, when FIDO and local BBSs were the Next Big Thing. I’ve always preferred to avoid corporate services, and the Late Unpleasantness on the alien site and the bird site have only made me more sure that’s the right stance.

Other than that, I’ve been a Trekkie forever. I love sci-fi, fantasy, and the paranormal. I enjoy a good ghost story, a smooth scotch, and a vintage fountain pen. Coffee is liquid gold. Everything else is subject to change without notice.

Oh hey there. Reddit user of 9 years, migrating for obvious reasons. Just want to introduce my little community, if any of y'all enjoy playing old-school forum games:

I'm really liking the friendly vibe here and hope it continues as the community grows!

Hello!

Been using Reddit since 2010. I should really be using the API controversy to break my social media addiction but here we are. Mainly just a lurker in hobby and video game subreddits but looking forward to contributing more here

Hello Lemmy! I have joined this community due to the current API crisis and the increasingly worse experience I've been having on Reddit recently. I hope I can permanently settle down in this place and call it home from now on! Too bad there aren't any communities for some of my niche interests atm though. 😢

Hello! Been here a week and still does not know how posting works.
