To me it feels like a matured Reddit. (At least most of the time 🙃)

Comfortable, but a little meh.

There's a handful of users I see posting and commenting. I read the Everything feed, but most of the posts are US politics, technology (with a FOSS/greybeard bent), or centre-left political takes.

There was a burst of activity during the Reddit exodus, but everything seems to be slowing down. I feel like I see fewer Canadian posts than the summer/early fall.

I appreciate

the handful of conservatives who are trying to build a community here. We aren't very forgiving to folks outside our Overton window, but it's nice to see other perspectives.
the Star Trek communities. I don't know if they're posting OC, but it's new to me.
PugJesus, the Picard Maneuver, and girlfreddy for their posts. Lemmy would be a quiet place without their content.

I actually just ended up blocking all the US-centered comms and most of the meme comms and I now see mostly news that is not just about the US and also some discussions and stuff from other comms. But it's just my preference.
