Honestly, I like it here. I've started to migrate mid-June and I got involved way more than in 5y of reddit. I'm definitely not looking back.

I love it and created my own instance!!

I really like it, except I'm still constantly getting "network error" messages. Not sure if it's a Jerboa app glitch or if the networks are still incredibly overloaded.

For example, every comment I post will buffer for a bit then tell me there's a network error, as if my comment didn't get posted. But if I refresh the post, my comment shows up. It's going to happen this time, too.

So far it's good.I think over time it'll keep growing on me

It's fine but god dammit all the network effects and preexisting communities (Reddit has one for EVERYTHING) will all be gone now, through no fault of Lemmy

Gerally it's decent.... I don't use it anywhere near as much as I used Reddit but I'm not sorry to see the back of that place.

It can be a little buggy sometimes, responses dont post or further posts fail to load. I think the lack of consistency is whynim using it less at the moment but overall, happy chappy :)

I don't know how it works, I don't know what I'm doing and I'm loving it.

I like it very much! Everything comes naturally into place for me, I've had no issues adapting as of today. Already feels like home, and it's really nice to be here.

Getting better as more people are on onboarded

I've noticed that I come across the same posts more frequently on my front page here than on Reddit. Perhaps it would be solved as the userbase continues to grow. Other than that, I have no complaints. This platform is a perfect substitute for Reddit, if not better.

I'm digging it so far. Nothing to complain about. Just being patient with it's growth. Great potential.

i found it challenging to understand how to subscribe to communities across instances until i discovered the Home icon in the top right of lemmiverse.net. i wish there was a quick 'subscribe' button there that would help you build up your subscriptions fast.

generally, i feel good about it. waiting for a few communities i really enjoyed to pop up- watchexchange and watches are big ones imo.

glad to see two huge F1 communities though!

It's a bunch of people chopping it up. I'm a fan. Mostly cause it's not apart of any economic system probly.

I prefer the smallish community size over the vast sea of opinion that is reddit.

It's weird, a little quirky, and can be a unpredictable at times. It all adds to charm though and I love it.

I like it a lot, but I do miss the multi-reddit feature, several communties in one feed. But so far, so good!

r/NCD and various firearms related subreddits are all I miss from reddit.

Think it would be cool to start an instance dedicated to firearms where there's a general community and separate smaller communities dedicated to certain popular platforms or topics like r/longrange or r/ak47. If I take it upon myself to start this I'd try to keep it apolitical other than maybe a community dedicated to gun rights/control/policy discussion only.

Reddit felt so damn simple to use where this is an absolute cluster fuck of complexity in comparison. It really needs to be simpler if there are hopes to take down reddit. Hopefully with boost and sync devs making a client things may improve.

I'm getting used to Lemmy, really enjoying my experience so far. I'm using the Jerboa app and it has honestly worked very well. Slowly discovering more communities to join. I think I'm here to stay (and mostly lurk)
