I've been looking for a reddit alternative for at least a year now, although I wasn't too focused on it. I did try one (I can't remember the name) but didn't stick around because there was so little activity. The API change was the last straw. I actively looked for alternatives and someone recommended lemmy.

Had I known about lemmy before, I probably would have been here since last year, at least.
