Yes. The Reddit BS was too much for me, and lemmy has been great.
I just have to find some of my communities here then thats it.
95% at the moment in favour of ~~YNNEL~~ Lemmy, with the occasional need to check in at the other place for niche interests and sport forums (there's very little I've found in terms of pro wrestling, cricket and rugby discussions over here so far). As and when those communities develop over here, I'll ditch the other place completely.
Already have, reddit's just for getting decent results in Google
Yes
Who's Lenny? I'm waiting for Sync.
I won't be able to fully replace it, I'm afraid. Not before communities gain the ability for their posts to not show up in high traffic feeds.
Some subreddits I follow have this set, but this is not yet implemented in Lemmy if I'm not mistaken. So a workable move to Lemmy for them is not possible at this moment.
I'm trying to
I've been on Lemmy and off Reddit since RIF died. Hope it grows, but so far it doesn't replace the reason I used reddit. The frontpage/hot posts are similar and even better than Reddit. But I never cared about those on Reddit anyway, they were mostly junk content that I didn't care about. Reddit was great because you could find a highly active niche community for ANYTHING. Find a new show you like? There's a subreddit with deep discussions of every episode, and fan theories about hidden details. Are you a scientist with a specific field who wants to stay up to date on new research in your field? Well the subreddit for your field is filled with other scientists discussing newly published research.
If course I don't expect Lemmy to be able to do that immediately. That requires a huge userbase and years of time building these small communities. Hope Lemmy can do it, pissed that Reddit already did it and now is trying to ruin it
Yeah trying to at least. Signed up on lemmy.world and using wefwef atm. Wont be using reddit for much longer I don't think
Yup
I've been trying to but so far not everything is here yet
Yeah. The nsfw stuff is lacking so far.
But it's early days. Just a matter of time, most likely.
But have you found pornlemmy? It's getting huge...
Yeah, but there's tons of niche ummm... Interests that aren't covered yet.
Interesting username lol
I use both side by side, I'm hoping for Lemmy to grow, but I know that in the near future Reddit will still continue to be active
I'm tempted to go back... but only to see how are things going, how's the outcome of the exodus and such
