I wasn't sure about lemmy at first and im still not entirely sure... but fuck reddit
-
This.

-
super relatable.
-
Like, 30 minutes in. So far the front page is a breath of fresh air. Reddit is unusable as of a few months ago. Just trash on top of trash.
-
Reddit has been shit for like 5+ years at that larger levels, but some small niche hobby and similar subs are still decent.
-
Obama killed reddit with that AMA and i will NEVER FORGIVE HIM. oh yea also the drone bombing was bad too.
-
Agreed. Welcome!
-
Welcome!

And eventually:
Friendship ended with Lemmy
Now Piefed is my new best friend

Beautiful thing about the fediverse is that people can choose and no one get’s excluded if you do not agree with the popular choice. Hope it stays that way.

Oh yes!

I'm not ready for that yet because change is terrifying and it should always be avoided at all cost.
-
I get it.
When Voyager got Piefed support I exported my communities and decided to try it. Loving it so far!

Signed up just because of this, thanks for the reminder

Did that 2 days ago after reading about lemmy devs.

Me after trying to find a Reddit alternative and I stumble across Lemmy.
-
Then they go back to reddit after 2 weeks
-
I'm non-binary and don't commune with binary choices.
I can be in parallel on Reddit and Lemmy. Eventually I may feel totally comfortable in one of them to ditch the other, or maybe not. Who cares?
Plus there are two sides for users in social media, producer and consumer.
I can be on Insta as a consumer checking what my friends are up to and on pixelfed posting my pictures and sharing the links with my friends.
-
Sad but true... I wish Lemmy had more active users...

After a while, you realize this place is not perfect either. Too much Linux (although I'm on Linux now), too much "voter suppression" messages from the left (which I'm no longer), tankies or whatever, I could swear I've seen several anti-Japanese/racist posts and the same crypto drivel you'd find on reddit.
Well choosing your communities is also key. idk.
