Lemme tell you... Yes the platform and ecosystem are only going to get better.

[–] 5ilver5urfer@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Yes here to stay now. With Memmy in the iOS App Store. It’s finally an easier transition.

[–] CharlotteRain@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

It's certainly slower and the professional communities I was part of are gone but.... I only viewed reddit from mobile and fuck that app sucks.

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago

It's a tough hole to fill. Lemmy is neat but still has a lot of growth to do.

[–] Raglesnarf@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

just throwing my random input in to the pot. still using Reddit via Boost but also checking into Kbin and some of the Lemmy servers as well via the Connect app for Android. I like Lemmy I just miss how Reddit had "everything in one place" if that makes sense.

I think I'm doing something wrong because I feel like I have to make an account for each server or "instance" I visit and that's annoying.

So far it's been a nice experience once I find "subs" and stuff I like there's just some growing pains I guess. idk man, I'm a lil inebriated atm

I like it but there is sparse activity on most of the Android instances. 😟 Lemmy kind of seems like several of ants scurrying around on a big mound right now. Am a big BoostforReddit fan and am hanging out on Jerboa until their Lemmy app is released.

Personally I'm still not feeling it. My feed is just full of memes and rules posts. All the stuff I blocked in bacon reader. I can't find communities for any of the stuff I was interested in on Reddit.

I won't go back to reddit, but I do miss it.

Pretty hopeful. I'm in the process of setting up a server to try and host a few communities. Should get it online by the end of the month. I figure if as many people as possible just host a few communities (i.e. cherished Reddit subs that aren't here yet) then we can save the major instances the pain of trying to host everything for everyone and take real advantage of building a truly robust decentralised network

[–] DragonAce@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

For now this is where I've landed and the community seems to be growing at a steady pace. As long as this place keeps growing and evolving, then I'm here for the long haul.

[–] bledley@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yeah, in for the long haul. Once the knowledge base and communities build up a bit it'll be great. It'll take some time.. There's still a lot of good searchable information deep in the subreddits.

[–] MrAstroman@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Seems like it is for me, I'm also using snapzu, but I seem to be gravitating towards lemmy more.

[–] MissO@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

For now y’all are stuck with me.

[–] Blamemeta@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, aside from the porn. The lemmy porn scene just isn't here yet. Also lemmy nsfw just moved servers to Ukraine where porn is illegal, so who knows?

Not to me. As the community is smaller, my exposure is larger. I had no voice on Reddit or any community.

[–] Kaleunt17@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

give it time and dedication. it will grow if we want it to.

[–] FangedWyvern42@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I’m using Lemmy and Spyke, both are pretty good although Spyke is rather inactive.

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 2 points 2 years ago

I found Tildes appealing and will probably join at some point, especially since the RIF dev is pivoting to making an app for that platform. I like their design philosophy better than the Fediverse, but the Feds are here, now and I already feel hooked in. I can't see abandoning that even after adopting Tildes.

[–] Moshpotatoes91@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'm loving the fediverse so far, lemmy has been a breath of fresh air compared to reddit. Definitely not going anywhere!

[–] weew@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

I've signed up on tildes.net as well

So far I'm happy with it. There is less mindless content to scroll but the quality of content is much better.
