MODERATORS
Still here. I'm making it work. The very dominant focus on particular topics and views is readily apparent and somewhat lessens the experience compared to the variety I was used to on Reddit, but I don't mind Lemmy's predilections so much as those were areas of interest for me anyway, just not areas that I'd focussed on so heavily, or areas that I had been more interested in in the past and drifted from with age. This makes it kind of nice to kind of reconnect and re-engage with those topics, even if it does make things a little bland overall.
What I'm missing most is the ability to just assume, correctly, that whatever I need information on at that moment will have a sub dedicated to it already and I just need to correctly guess the name of the sub. This was especially handy for technical questions.
