MODERATORS
It’s been 2 years on Lemmy for me. I was on Reddit for 12 years prior.
I never looked back. I didn’t have a hard time at all really. Comment sections are so nice here usually. I only spend maybe 30 mins on here daily and never run out of content. But I’m a reader. I read articles and comments fully so I only get through a dozen posts or so.
What are you having a hard time with?
For me the content is just not quite there on Lemmy. Less stuff overall and less interesting and active communities. I wish Lemmy became a lot more popular because Reddit is firmly in an enshittification phase.
The moment old.reddit.com is gone, I'm done with it.
Embrace the fact that there is a limit to the amount of new content and do something else with your time.
Once you realize that 1) like 80% of reddit is just bot slop and 2) a handful of accounts post the majority of "content", you kind of don't care that reddit has seemingly "more active" communities.
