I'm a fan of Lemmy, for the memes and link aggregator aspect of it. And sense of community, there are trolls but it's generally pretty positive.

I also like the Old Internet feel that the Fediverse in general has. I'm going out and looking for things that interest me again rather than hoping for something new to come into my feed. Actually reading articles. Commenting more than twice a year.

We'll see what happens but overall, I think I'm staying.

I like it so far, lemmy and mastodon are replacing reddit and twitter for me. Yes, is more quiet and there's less people, but also less bullshit (from users and CEO) and in general a great atmosphere.

The fediverse is great!

I feel fine on it so far, I haven't said too much. I just want a platform where I can go, say things without dealing with as many snarky, bad faith, shitposting users that Reddit seems to endorse having itself contaminated with.

If Lemmy can be the exception, in due time, then I will hail it as a true alternative.

I tried communites.win and squiggles and some other stuff but they felt like reddit clones. This feels like its own platform and it feels like the future.

I'm definitely sticking around. It was slow going on Lemmy after Reddit's third party app shutdown on 6/30 but there's been a noticeable uptick in posts and comments in the communities I follow which is great. I don't need 5,000 responses per post and Lemmy's discussion volume works just fine for me.

There are still a few interests I follow that aren't present on Lemmy that I'm aware of (pro wrestling and NFL being the big ones), but hopefully those arrive soon.

I like it a lot and I never really used reddit often.

I considered setting up kbin but Lemmy looked easier and has apps.

[-] Javish@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The best of the options we have so far. Really wish Christian from Apollo fame would make an app for it.

Is Kbin considered an option?

I feel like there’s people just taking top posts from Reddit and getting them here as fast as they can. Sometimes it seems like a “best of” Reddit site.
