Really miss Sync, but am living well enough with Connect until Sync for Lemmy is released.
I really love it. Even though I miss a few subreddits, Lemmy feels much like early Reddit, and it scratches an itch I've felt for many years.

Getting better as more people are on onboarded
Good so far. Communities here are less active and I am still using old.reddit.com for stuff that has no equivalent community here yet, but just gonna give it time and re-search for the missing stuff every so often to see if any of it has been added anywhere.
I'm loving hanging out with y'all.
I'm digging it so far. Nothing to complain about. Just being patient with it's growth. Great potential.
I'm getting used to Lemmy, really enjoying my experience so far. I'm using the Jerboa app and it has honestly worked very well. Slowly discovering more communities to join. I think I'm here to stay (and mostly lurk)
With the improvements Ruud and team put into Lemmy.World, my experience has gotten infinitely better. Lemmy is completely satisfying my Reddit addiction, and Memmy is an incredible app to navigate it all.
Overall, I’m really happy I made the switch. Had a 12 year run on Reddit, but Lemmy proves that Spez is wrong about where the value lies. If the content is water, there are dozens of ways to move it to different places, and right now Reddit looks like a leaky bucket in comparison.
I enjoy it so far, but I am noticing that the userbase is currently a lot smaller and thus there are fewer posts and comments. Also, the niche interests are very thinly represented. For instance, I enjoyed following the valheim subreddit to get up to speed with updates and see fun creations. Lemmy has basically no community for valheim. The same goes for other narrow subjects. I expect this to grow along with the popularity of Lemmy, but it's currently a bit shallow.
I’m really enjoying it and feel like it’s easier to reply here than in Reddit. I love seeing how fast it’s growing as well. People also seem nicer here - it feels less toxic.
It's Much faster than reddit, no ads. it makes me think reddit should die at earliest
Currently I use Connect Lemmy for Android as with Jerboa there was a login issue when the server version wouldn't match. Not sure if this app is more resilient to this but it wasn't a good start. I couldn't use Lemmy properly for about a week or two. I also don't like that Lemmy is hard to search for new SubLemmy or search for results via Google. Before I just added "Reddit" to get the good results, I wonder how this will evolve if Lemmy gets bigger. Well and the whole kbing/Lemmy/mastodon link of the Fedyverse is really confusing for new people.
Sometimes it's really slow but besides that, it works and I believe it will take off as a successful project, Reddit can go duck itself.
Loving in, and it gets better every day
I’ve really been liking it for the most part and hoping there’s a real app soon. After all the subreddit blackouts last month Reddit started to feel like the big, empty hollow worlds of some video games. That’s when I stopped using it.
I like it. I haven’t been back to Reddit since June 30th. It still has ways to go in terms of content and app availability. I am using Memmy and it is wonderful. Missing support for gifs (some work many don’t), albums, etc. great start.
Lemmy is life, Lemmy is love.
I don't understand how I can find and subscribe two "subreddits".
So I use wefwef and used this link to find other communities: https://lemdit.com/post/18035
Hope this helps
I find all to be rather good, and don’t miss r/all that much. There are much less news which I miss. And then there are the niche communities that don’t really exist. I’m very hopeful though!
LOVING it!!!! It's very similar to reddit as far as content goes, but its better in the sense that im not being bombarded with rage bait!
I like it. The memes and entertainment are growing and good enough for me. But the knowledge base needs more input so that it can be used at some point as discussion forum for problems in different categories. Like the old Reddit were you could search if people had this problem and solved it etc etc.
I'd like to be able to group multiple subs into a mult-iLemmy that I can save to refer to. e.g I have multiple gaming subs I'd like to group into a single browsable page titled "games". Any way to do multi-subs?
I just found out how to add more…instances? I want to call them subreddits but that’s not it lol but I like it, and so far I’ve curated enough for it to keep me interested while scrolling. I do understand that everyone is still getting their footing, I definitely am, so it won’t be perfect or exactly what I want. You really gotta take time to discover and explore the feddiverse, it seems quite big.
I think if we want this space to be a great reddit alt, we gotta put the effort in making it so!
I see a lot of reposted content or no content changes because of lack of user activity unfortunately.
That's driving me to use my phone less though so that's a plus.
Loving it. Haven't been back to Reddit in days. Don't foresee that changing.
Been here about 3 weeks and every day it's feeling more like home.
I won't be going back to reddit.
