    Found my way here as part of the Grand Reddit Migration. Applying for refugee status please. (1st day on Lemmy, looks good gotta say)

    It is very clear that new content per day has been steadily increasing the past 14 days.

    Lemmy is no longer just promising, it is already good. With signs of getting even better.

    With more active users, more niche communities should soon be able to do fine too.

      I already didn’t read past the first few hundred comments on reddit- Lemmy already feels almost as good to use, way more than mastodon did coming from Twitter.

        Mastodon is simply not as good. Lemmy achieves its objectives very cleanly and seems to leverage ActivityPub the best in the fediverse by far.

          Twitter is also focused around individuals. Reddit around communities. I believe different dynamics of those two are why Lemmy works better.

      Watching the last 3 weeks has been exciting. Dead subs springing to life & much more content. New subs every single day.

    Hope Lemmy grows at a steady pace so the resources can keep up. It’s amazing it’s handeling this amount of Traffic already.

    This feels great. The posts right now seem a lot more genuine compared to reddit lately. Keep it up!

    Just realised I have not replied to anything yet, so using this thread to check it works.

    Fediverse social seem a thousand percent more chill and make me 100 percent less stressed and depressed than non fediverse social.

      It feels like the early days of Reddit right now, chill and civil.

      I hope that this system can evolve more effectively without a single point of corporate/capital investment control that gets wielded strictly for monetization purposes.

    Deleted my Reddit account yesterday. Feels bad since I used Reddit in lieu of Facebook and Twitter, and it always seemed like a better place… but time moves on and so do I.

      Agreed, after using it for a few days it’s actually not too bad. Doesn’t quite have the QoL stuff that some of Reddit’s 3rd party apps had but it’s still pretty good.

        the dev of Sync is making a Sync for Lemmy app. I’m assuming it’s going to be a similar UI to the Reddit version, which I’m stoked about because that was the majority of my Reddit experience

    There will probably be another bump on July 1st, and probably more to come as Reddit makes more horrible decisions going forward.

    100% honestly, I’m not married to the whole concept of the Fediverse - I think it’s interesting and solves some problems plaguing modern social media, but has other issues of its own - but Lemmy has, overall, put out a good showing in the various instances’ content so far. So here I am with an account and actively posting. Looking forward to continued growth!

      Oh, hi Margot Robbie. I loved you in Suicide Squad… the first one, I couldn’t be bothered to watch the second one. Sorry 😅
