Lemmy is great. So great that I named myself after it (my nickname was just "Resol" before then, now it's obviously "Resol van Lemmy", it sounds very Flemish). I do have a problem with it though. Most communities I was active on on Reddit are either nonexistent on Lemmy or just not big enough to maintain daily activity, making them look like ghost towns. Also, I had to shuffle between different clients because I didn't have a satisfactory experience with some, I'm currently using Sync because the interface is so nice (although I like how Jerboa shows the upvote to downvote ratio in addition to the total score). In addition to all this, I got help cutting down on screentime thanks to the Fediverse. I just didn't have much addiction anymore, which is always a good thing. I don't know what else to say.
Flemish or Dutch indeed, very fancy.
