Asklemmy

I use it but some of the smaller communities pretty much are non existent here

I'm here for the community and to be honest - the people in the Fediverse are very smart and share their smarty brains in a nice and parsable way.

edit: with the exception of c/asklemmy.world because apparently all the judgey shitheads that make the internet suck all live there.

I run out of content to read much more quickly than I did with Reddit, so I'm antsy/restless more often, because I pick up my phone and then have nothing to do on it.

So I used lemmy world and then lemmy winks because world had up time issues and now I keep making ones on new instances seeing as winks seems to be dead

Memes are about the only consistent content on lemmy

Very good. Seems like a nice place to be in.

I'm only just starting the last week or so, but I feel like because it's a bit smaller there's better discussion. Most minor annoyance with it though is some quality of life things not being there like RES (browsing everything with J + K etc.) and that multiple times a day it gives me Server Error / Cloudflare error pages.

Pretty good, though I'm not mainly using Lemmy directly. I run a Kbin instance that I've been using primarily, but I've also been testing Artemis with the developer's artemis.camp instance, and I have Infinity for Lemmy signed into my lemmy.world account.

There's less content here than on Reddit, but I think it's higher quality. There's less trolling and shitposting here (unless seeking it out on purpose then there's plenty).

I joint today because Kbin is very slow to browse, so I figured I create an account here, but I don't get why there is a lemm.me and lemmy.world which both look identical but it seems I can't log in there using my username here?

I have almost completely dropped reddit. I'll check it once every few days on old.reddit for a few niche subreddits, or as I do regular online research on a topic, because it still has a long history. In the end, I never liked Reddit as it's just a silicon valley-based social media tech company that is designed to track users.

Lemmy itself is going great. I, for one, am happy that there are way more socialists here as a proportion of the population, and it makes me more comfortable as a user. And ever since Reddit killed 3rd party apps + ever since the lemmy web UI dropped websockets, actually visiting the Lemmy page feels much better. I didn't create an account on Lemmy for years because I really hated that websockets thing and seeing posts just appear randomly while leaving the site open.

My wish for Lemmy is a common sentiment: I would like to see more people with an easier way for them to get started. And I'd like to see less defederation. Lemmy.world performing preemptive defederation from Hexbear was a really bad move, IMO.

Someone mentioned how Lemmy draws a tech enthusiast crowd, and I think that's true. But that was also true for Reddit in its early days, as well. I think so long as the posting quality here is good, more people will eventually find their way in. If I can start seeing some cool home DIY stuff (to inspire the fortunate future day where I can finally be a homeowner myself), that is when I know Lemmy as a social platform has made it. I don't have the heart of a true poster, but I hope that if I have useful information to share and post that I'm doing my part in helping the community grow a bit larger.

I was commenting a fair bit early on, but have stopped so much cause that's just how I react to social media.

Have completely stopped using Reddit after baconreader died, and check Lemmy once, maybe twice a day. Nowhere near what I did Reddit but such is the way of things.

It has led me to go properly check out Mastodon so I'm more active over there (but still not really active)
