Lemme tell you... Yes the platform and ecosystem are only going to get better.
I found Tildes appealing and will probably join at some point, especially since the RIF dev is pivoting to making an app for that platform. I like their design philosophy better than the Fediverse, but the Feds are here, now and I already feel hooked in. I can't see abandoning that even after adopting Tildes.
Lemmy is popular now, I think people will come here. I'm quite satisfied with user engagement but I think squabble has also had good potential but relatively less user engagement.
I think the only thing Lemmy is missing is scale now. Appears there is adequate dev support currently and every day I'm finding another community I followed on reddit popping up here
And I love the idea of not having one controlling entity for the platform to answer to. This is going to create some problems that will have to be addressed eventually but for now I feel like this is us taking back what the internet should be.
just throwing my random input in to the pot. still using Reddit via Boost but also checking into Kbin and some of the Lemmy servers as well via the Connect app for Android. I like Lemmy I just miss how Reddit had "everything in one place" if that makes sense.
I think I'm doing something wrong because I feel like I have to make an account for each server or "instance" I visit and that's annoying.
So far it's been a nice experience once I find "subs" and stuff I like there's just some growing pains I guess. idk man, I'm a lil inebriated atm

Yes indeed!
I like it but there is sparse activity on most of the Android instances. 😟 Lemmy kind of seems like several of ants scurrying around on a big mound right now. Am a big BoostforReddit fan and am hanging out on Jerboa until their Lemmy app is released.
Android instances? All the main instances are interconnected, so you see all the content from all of them (if you filter your feed that way, at least).
I can see the content there just is just space activity in them.
I’m using Lemmy and Spyke, both are pretty good although Spyke is rather inactive.
I tried communites.win and squiggles and some other stuff but they felt like reddit clones. This feels like its own platform and it feels like the future.
Thank you my man! I get it now
