Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I'm just curious to know how y'all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

It scratches my reddit itch. Only thing that's bothering me is the lack of non-tech-related content.
For a while I tried to block every new Linux, IT tech, gaming and social media drama community that popped up on my feed.
But I had to do it daily cause more kept popping up, and even the memes, news and askquestions communities are mostly tech-related.

I miss diversity in topics (and before you ask, yes I understand the reason and I'm doing my part in posting original content).

You mean you don't want to see the same whiny post about LTT again?

I still have no idea what that's about and I don't care, either.

Perhaps your filtering has done a good job then!

It's also really hard to block everything because there isn't a simple block button available, you have to go into the message and then scroll all the way to the bottom (which is fun when infinite scrolling is switched on).
