Can we call communities "lemlets?"

Hello world :)

Hi everyone! I'm /u/thatlightiningjack from reddit! (also obligatory fuck spez)

Seems good so far, having some lag issues but that's unsurprising. I'll join a couple of communities and see how it goes over the next few weeks/months.

The whole lemmy concept mixed with the current situation feels far more like you are part of a real community. Kinda like in old internet days. I will even break out of my reddit lurker days and try to contribute here.

Seems sluggish, rough, and low population, but fuck spez so I'll give this an honest chance.

Is there an easier way to find communities on other instances? I wish I could browse another instance as if it were "local" to organically find more communities.

Jerboa kinda sucks and Lemmur straight up doesn't let you sign in.

A lot of communities are unfortunately missing, the Lemmy devs should do a better job of advertising the platform to Reddit expats so we can have more content.

I'm hoping some third party Reddit apps rewrite themselves to support a Lemmy backend.

I'm still tapping the spot where RIF used to be, going to take some time to move on.

This is my first comment here, hope I'm doing it right!

Figured I’d just pass along a quick “hello” as someone that just jumped on tonight. Keen to see how the service develops and grows. Hope Lemmy in general takes off in time! Certainly early days (nabbing my first name as a user name is always a sign of that!), but there’s great potential.

I appreciate the speed, at least right now, faster than reddit so that's a bonus !

it almost feels liberating leaving reddit and I really like this site its very clean and easy on the eyes. There are some responsiveness problems on mobile but I have no idea if that's just my phone.

I suppose the Reddit issue has at least got me to look into Lemmy. Seems interesting, albeit quite small. Still, oak trees grow from small acorns, etc, etc. ;-)

New here and ready 🫡

It's similar to Reddit in many aspects, which definitely helps. I had to come over from Reddit after they killed the third party app I've been using for the better part of a decade. Excited to see where this goes.

Quite excited honestly. Things feel like anything is possible here, a sense of optimism and possibility. One that reddit had many many years ago. I have good hopes for the fediverse way of doing things

Still getting used to it, so far I like it. Bummed to lose Reddit, but glad to have found a new place.

Seems pretty fine, more reddit-like than I thought it would be. First comment!

Was a bit confused about sign up at first but it was actually super easy here. Still have no idea what's going on.

Hello it's great to be here!

Thanks for having us! Much learning ahead for me though it seems, but this does look promising.

I'm enjoying it. The mobile PWA needs a card view like the MLEM app, unless I'm missing something.
