Reddit users are called Redditors. What are Lemmy users called? Lemmitors? Lemmings?

How well are the Lemmy fediverses growing? How many daily unique users do we have on this service? Will we overtake Reddit someday?

What differences should I get used to over here from what I was used to on Reddit? Thanks in advance.

I would add to that, to switch between local, subscribed and all. Also, switch between Hot, Active, Top every 6 hours. Active seems the least active since it's the same threads with the most comments.

You're going to go through some withdrawal because it's not an angry factory here most of the time. Right now, it can get a little bit around politics because of the elections, but that's not typical.

I actually appreciate that Lemmy runs out faster than Reddit did. I use top six hours and generally don't need to go deeper than a few dozen posts (skipping most of course).

I do too. It seems to me like lemmy and piefed got most of the best of reddit to come here. There are some good conversations here and I learn a lot.

I’ve been using scaled and then going to new.

Gotta try that Top 6 hour tip!
