Asklemmy

It's lovely. Haven't looked back. The only thing I've even thought about going to reddit for in the last three weeks has been the occasional technical answer that comes up in a Google search.

I hope that in time the fediverse will become the same sort of resource.

I like it more than reddit honestly. We've already expanded into a space 3x the size of what we have on reddit, although there are far less people and a lot of those communities will disappear. Honestly an architecture mistake that reddit only allowed one subreddit per topic instead of entire an entire reddit instance dedicated to one thing.

I like it! More exposure, one or two good apps for Android/ iOS, and I'm sure it can be a better Reddit in a few months.

I like it. It definitely feeds my bored and feel like reading habit. I do wish there were more specific communities that I used to subscribe to. It has promise and feels cool getting in on something early on too.

honestly I just want boost for lemmy to come out sooner so I can mindlessly scroll lemmy instead of reddit, been figuring the place out just fine

Less active just due to lower user population but great vibe nonetheless.

So far I'm enjoying it! There have been a few hiccups, but things have been coming together, especially since Memmy and wefwef have taken over the void that Apollo left.

I've also got a Squabbles account, which is I guess where the people who got mad at Reddit but insist the Fediverse is too confusing ended up, but Lemmy seems to be advancing faster in features and app functionality. At this point, between Reddit and Twitter's bullshit, I'm trying it all.

I prefer Lemmy's content/userbase, but there's less of it. Which is fine with me. The bugs could use some ironing tho.

I was legitimately, saddened and upset when I heard that Apollo was going away and that I would never be able to use Reddit again I am actually quite pleased with Lemmy. I love it.

It's better than I expected tbh, the app I use is Jerboa (it's suspiciously similar to boost, I'm waiting for Ruben [the dev] to publish boost for lemmy)

Everything is done right to ensure an open platform and that another redditpocalypse doesn't happens, the only thing that concerns me is that if I choose lemmy.world, I'll miss on other things, I just need all my tech related and videogames (and blender) subreddits to migrate so I fully leave reddit.

Also, I think I got a good username

It definitely was a rough start. Mastodon was already a bit more mature and the app ecosystem was way more vibrant. However I discovered the wefwef PWA and since it’s almost an Apollo clone it feels like home.

It's really good for tech, news, and memes - but anything related to sports or culture is pretty much non-existent. Sure sport news make it through into the NBA community for example, but no one is actually engaging - pretty much feels like an RSS reader in there.

I love it so far. I've been a huge supporter for decentralization for a while now through blockchain tech so it's great to see so many people finally seeing what makes decentralization as a concept so great.

I just hope the apps keep developing at the speed they are because they are the part that is lacking the most right now. The experience is significantly better on PC right now. Even simple things like finding new communities is difficult on the apps I've tried so far.

Decent so far, I do want a redditisfun type app for it, and it could use more people, but other than that good

I like it enough to host an instance. It's pretty legit, to be honest. If I can find and join more of the same types of communities I was a part of on Reddit, I can easily see myself spending more time here. Even now, I feel like my time on my phone is an even split between Lemmy and Reddit.

I dig it. I lurked a few weeks before signing up. Feels freer, less stressful here so far. (Not for instance admins, I'm sure!) I miss some of the niche subs over there, but I'm adjusting. I've only tried wefwef and Liftoff so far, but will get around to giving more apps a shot, too. Using Firefox on mobile hasn't been bad either. As a creature of habit, I was a long time RIF user and imagine I'll eventually get attached to one for Lemmy.

It's great! Though I'm missing some niche communities. And some good apps.

Everyone's nice and there activity, but I miss some subs. I could make them them all, but creating content for all of them would be too much work... I already do that outside reddit/lemmy. 😣

Just deleted my Reddit account. It's Ok so far but having trouble finding communities. That's just an early adopter problem I bet though.

I feel like I may like it more once Boost for Lemmy is a thing.

I'm excited to be part of the fediverse though.

Honestly, I'm kind of hating it... everything feels like it is in the wrong place, everything has just enough friction in interacting with Lemmy to irritate me as I try and get realigned, and nothing feels like it is at my fingertips. The signup process alone was adamant that it was incredibly straightforward and that instances don't matter... but is also very variable based on the instance you choose... I had to wait until morning because my instance's email verification didn't work and had to be done manually. Then when I look to turn on 2FA, it just doesn't work at all, very unappealing.

Maybe once Boost for Lemmy is out, that will have some quality of life, but currently I am not actively liking anything about Lemmy at all, beside just the basic principle of it.

I still don't know what instance to use or if it matters. But I like it, the community is similar enough to reedits. I'm looking forward to using Sync for lemmy though. I miss sync for reddit lol

Trying to figure things out. I like it so far, just feels a little different. A little more sparse. Using the Jerboa app, which seems okay. I miss Boost, but I think the dev is working on a Lemmy version.

I like it better so im using it as much as i can and just hoping its not a fad and people actually move over enough to unseat reddit

After I took the time to understand it, I love it. Just need my favorite communities to migrate/become more active (yes I’ve thought of starting at least one myself and might do so).

I especially enjoy that I feel good about contributing to a conversation here. I didn’t comment much on Reddit because the mob seemed relentless at times.

I’ve joined two instances and I think I need to do more to understand their differences (Lemmy.world vs discuss.online) before I settle on a “main.”

No more beans, please.
