I haven’t missed Reddit once since I started using Lemmy. This place is a vibe.
Truth. There’s a nice, positive vibe here.
Some of that real fediverse freedom
Getting there. Just not active enough for me yet. I need go be able to scroll a unhealthy amount all day long dammit :(
But it's a much better community.
Try the new feed on a few different instances. I personally run a server that has seeded new for me.
Why (how?) is doing "all" view sorted by new different than what you are suggesting?
Feels like Reddit way back in the day, honestly.
I’m talking like 17 years ago way back.
Loving it! So much fun, silly content!
And just think... in a mere 17 years we can revolt against the fediverse and move on to the next greatest thing to feel these feelings again!
2040, the year the fediverse was taken over by the Humongous Language Model.
I don't understand why people are grasping so desperately onto reddit. This platform is young but already superior in most ways to reddit.
Also, I firmly believe that federation is the perfect environment for something like reddit and this is what we should have gotten in the first place instead of what reddit became.

It's definitely turned me from a lurker to a commenter 😅
Same here. I mostly lurked on Reddit but there's just such a good vibe going here, I think I will be commenting more.
I've honestly been impressed with how fast Lemmy has improved both in terms of technical implementation as well as the quality of the site overall. Memmy has also impressed me with how quickly it is improving as well.
Just made this account, been lurking for a couple weeks. Chill vibes in here, and yeah things are impressively smooth.
The old memes and posts about a dude not wanting to poop for 3 days has given me pure joy.
But everyone here has also been really great, and I've had no shortage of posts and comments to interact with.
Let’s try our best to keep this same energy going forward!
I’ll be honest, I have not weened myself 100% off Reddit just yet. However, I notice with each passing day since Reddit sabotaged third party apps that I am opening and scrolling through Memmy first and more often than I am doing with Narwhal. So while I have not left Reddit behind just yet, leaving it behind is getting easier by the day as more people start coming over to Lemmy and is becoming more active.
I'm in this picture and I like it
My experience is that it's 95% of the way there and has the potential to do it all. I think Lemmy needs time to coalesce as a thing and for defacto groups to emerge that replace the ones over on Reddit.
Yeah, actually people and communities look less toxic but I guess that would soon change.
Definitely has potential. Needs to reach critical mass.
Eh, this is mostly fine - worst part of reddit is starting to comment on a post only to realize that 4000 people already did so and nobody will ever see your comment.
oh that wasn't usually my problem
my problem was writing a well thought out comment, proof reading it, then realized it probably wouldn't matter to OP or anyone else so I'd delete and move on
It would be much better without the constant references to Reddit

This is quite clever
I wonder if the same thing happened during the digg migration.
It did. This is normal and expected.
Personally I prefer how on Reddit you can get really specific communities. Like for tsundere sharks, or bread stapled to trees.
Give it some time, user count is still tiny compared to Reddit so obviously niche content will be less common at first. But it's growing rapidly, I've not even been here a week and every day it feels more alive.
Lemmy is one chill af mofo 🤙
That photo of The Hoff is pure gold.
Memmy for Lemmy feels very much like Apollo RIP

It has a few weird glitches that happen every couple of days, and I haven't been able to find a way to 100% stop non-English languages from showing up. Every other day my feed will get filled up with posts in Dutch or German or something, I'll go through block communities and try to keep them out (I just can't read what they say, so I don't care to see it). I tried changing my language in the settings, but that doesn't seem to have stopped it. That and random problems with being logged in seem to affect Memmy on iOS. Otherwise, I'm liking it so far.
Hopefully the momentum continues and the community builds. I was worried about finding a barren wasteland after leaving Reddit, but it seems to be doing well so far.
