Is it just me, or is Lemmy 1000% better?

I haven’t missed Reddit once since I started using Lemmy. This place is a vibe.

Getting there. Just not active enough for me yet. I need go be able to scroll a unhealthy amount all day long dammit :(

But it's a much better community.

I don't understand why people are grasping so desperately onto reddit. This platform is young but already superior in most ways to reddit.

Also, I firmly believe that federation is the perfect environment for something like reddit and this is what we should have gotten in the first place instead of what reddit became.

It's definitely turned me from a lurker to a commenter 😅

The old memes and posts about a dude not wanting to poop for 3 days has given me pure joy.

But everyone here has also been really great, and I've had no shortage of posts and comments to interact with.

Feels like Reddit way back in the day, honestly.

I’m talking like 17 years ago way back.

Loving it! So much fun, silly content!

I've honestly been impressed with how fast Lemmy has improved both in terms of technical implementation as well as the quality of the site overall. Memmy has also impressed me with how quickly it is improving as well.

I'm in this picture and I like it

I’ll be honest, I have not weened myself 100% off Reddit just yet. However, I notice with each passing day since Reddit sabotaged third party apps that I am opening and scrolling through Memmy first and more often than I am doing with Narwhal. So while I have not left Reddit behind just yet, leaving it behind is getting easier by the day as more people start coming over to Lemmy and is becoming more active.

It’s like Reddit, but from 10-12 years ago. And I dig it.

Personally I prefer how on Reddit you can get really specific communities. Like for tsundere sharks, or bread stapled to trees.

Yo is that the Hasselhoff??

My experience is that it's 95% of the way there and has the potential to do it all. I think Lemmy needs time to coalesce as a thing and for defacto groups to emerge that replace the ones over on Reddit.

Yeah, actually people and communities look less toxic but I guess that would soon change.

I'm participating more, and I'm getting lurkers joining communities I've made and upvoting at least. Soon we'll have a thriving social site.

I use all the tools I can. Reddit has a great community in a lot of subreddits that are extremely helpful. So are many standalone forums for the topics I enjoy. Lemmy is just another option for great content. I prefer Lemmy to Reddit as a platform, but the content - I really don't care where it's hosted as long as it's free (free as in freedom of information, not just cost).

Reddit's gone to shit, but I'll still hit those SysAdmin and other subs for information. Too valuable not to.

Let’s try our best to keep this same energy going forward!

Lemmy is one chill af mofo 🤙

I feel seen.

It has a few weird glitches that happen every couple of days, and I haven't been able to find a way to 100% stop non-English languages from showing up. Every other day my feed will get filled up with posts in Dutch or German or something, I'll go through block communities and try to keep them out (I just can't read what they say, so I don't care to see it). I tried changing my language in the settings, but that doesn't seem to have stopped it. That and random problems with being logged in seem to affect Memmy on iOS. Otherwise, I'm liking it so far.

Hopefully the momentum continues and the community builds. I was worried about finding a barren wasteland after leaving Reddit, but it seems to be doing well so far.

Alright, alright, alright!

Lemmy is superior to Reddit in every way.

Fug yea

Yup. It's better.

Definitely has potential. Needs to reach critical mass.

If you have an iPhone I suggest you try memmy application, it’s great !

Can confirm it's actually, at least, 800% better. Just getting rid of the bots is great

Memmy for Lemmy feels very much like Apollo RIP

It would be much better without the constant references to Reddit

I preferred the usability, searchability and content of reddit.

Hopefully lemmy eventually catches up

Using a 3rd party app of course, hated the native reddit website/app

That photo of The Hoff is pure gold.

The same

Hell yeah. Feels so much more kind here.

I like kbin better, but yes, the threadiverse feels a lot more cosy and positive! There are a few niche communities I miss, but I'm sure they'll take off in time.

I'm having a bit a trouble with the transfer from rif to kbin. I don't know how to subscribe to communities.. Have a front page

For now. I've already noticed a massive increase of chuds, especially after we defedersted exploding heads.

It's really nice . I'd really love to get the members from r/daria over to my c/daria because i literally don't have anyone else to talk about the show Daria.

I wish. I'm nowhere near as hot as The Hoff

Good so far. Though I miss seeing videos in the feed

It isnt because redditers are here

soooo much better

I still use both. To be honest, I never understood what the whole freakout blackout thing was about and didn't really pay it much attention. Big deal, apps no longer work. Who gives a shit. I never used apps anyway, correction I used Alien Blue like 10 years ago. Reddit is still 100% functional using the website. So in my opinion the whole gloom and doom, sky is falling manbaby temper tantrum was a complete overreaction.
