How do you feel about the massive influx of users?

I went from Digg to Reddit and now I'm looking for a new home. I'm really liking what I'm seeing here!

I honestly can't say about the influx. Since I'm part of it.

But man....

This does feel like home.

I was already loving Mastodon.

Honestly, the real question is:

What took us soo long....

I was lurking on Lemmy for a long time now read only mode, not signed up, but never had the urge to actually making an account.

I try not to have so many feeds where I'm active at once, to try and better manage the time I spend on this feeds.

Twitter and Reddit were the ones I engaged the most

Twitter became Mastodon and Reddit became Lemmy on that matter, so that I can focus on being active and helpful whenever possible.

So, what took me so long...?

Definitely something I will be asking myself for a while, since so far the experience here have something that reddit just don't. The quality over quantity aspect.

Finally...

Thanks for having me here, I hope I can contribute the best I can to maintain Lemmy awesome as it is. I don't post or reply like a madman, but I like to participate on constructive discussion every now and then.

Je trouve ça incroyable, je me suis inscrit ya à peine une semaine et les postes avaient genre 50-100 upvote max et la ça touche les 800. Puis c'est sympa de voir d'avantage de contenu.

Hey everyone, let's not be quick to downvote just because it's not in English today. As proud Lemmy users, let's seize this opportunity to showcase our incredible diversity. Let's demonstrate to the world just how unique and amazing we can be. Together.

Je comprend clairement ce que tu veux dire, même si je suis perso un peu perdu parce que en catégorie "Hot" ou "Active" j'ai toujours les mêmes premiers post qui reste pendant 2 jours entier et que c'est un peu frustrant quand je l'ai déjà bien vu

I find the hot/active categories pretty confusing too. It would be nice to be able to show subbed communities either across the top of the page or on a sidebar like old Reddit.

Tried Lemmy a couple months ago and tbh it felt dead, love this new influx just hope new communities keep popping up
