I am definitely less active on Reddit, to the point of absence from posting/commenting. However, I am not very active here either. I have encouraged others on Mastodon to join Lemmy but I acknowledge that it's not as mature as a Reddit replacement, as Mastodon is as a twitter replacement. Definitely both systems are getting better and hopefully, we can move our social networking to the fediverse 100% by 2024.
My reddit account was soft locked for months barring me from any interaction, just lurk.
I never fixed it because i was wasting to many hours on debates. Yesterday i told my wife i was going to come downstairs after finishing my reply. It took 30minuts.
Lemmy is great and i love interacting with it but honestly i wouldn’t mind a bot that helps me to stop now and then. This cant be good for my mental health in the long run otherwise.
100% Lemmy content is just so much more up my alley
I’m so glad to finally join! Signup was tricky and finally got Memmy working for ios. Happy days
Absolutely! There's some feeling of ownership now that I can host an instance of my own - I want this platform to succeed, I want to give something back to the open source community, even if it's only a small server.
I'm not very active yet as there are only a few subs that match. Once there are more...
To some extent, yeah. It feels like a more tight-nit community here.
I have been posting more than I ever had on Reddit. Mostly because I got my news from Reddit, but over here I have to bring the news to Lemmy.
I'd mostly comment on shitposts, and there's less here so I feel like I comment less
Yes, though I know it’s only temporary. Once we’re done with poop and beans, it’ll just take the place of Reddit and I’ll chill out.
barely, but I'm trying
Looking forward to becoming active in the community
So far trying to find my old communities I would run with, can’t seem to find all of them.
I did once find /r/FeedTheBeast on lemmy but no longer can find it on here!
Once I get my rotation I will def use this way more.
Yup, way more active. I used to mainly lurk on reddit. Now I'm commenting more and have actually posted a couple of times.
I've been surfing more on Lemmy than on Reddit now, but that being said, the niche subs that I was "most active in" are just not available/big enough in any of the Lemmy instances I've found, so I end up not really commenting much here compared to on Reddit.
Yes, by far. I wouldn’t really comment on Reddit. Here I do
Reddit quality has markedly deteriorated in my opinion.
Maybe it’s just my imagination.
Basically everything works but the content is less engaging!
I’m trying to be more active. It doesn’t come naturally as I’m generally a lurker. Good vibes help though
Yes. I gradually disengaged over the years. I will become less active once the pump is primed. Perhaps turn to more technical aspects, as maintaining my own instance. Or be more offline in general.
More active here, i never got onto the idea of reddit, always made me uncomfortable for some reason.
I did use 3rd party apps like slide or infinity to read reddit posts and follow sibreddits i liked.
Nah. Thankfully my mindless scrolling time has taken a dive, which is an issue I had been meaning to address regardless.
Yes.
I feel no difference, I still comment as much as on reddit with the difference that people are more open here and more welcome.
