Yes. More and more content every day, no corporate overlords to appease, and best of all so far the community has been significantly more friendly.

Absolutely, this is my new home.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes. People are friendly here.

I plan on using both. Hopefully more people migrate

It's a no-brainer. I was an early addict of Usenet, and never found the same utility and community when everyone left for the bright shiny corporate sites (and usenet became harder and harder to access since it wasn't making any billionaires richer.) The Fediverse is what is needed to take the internet back. I just feel bad that it took me so long to start. I joined Mastodon in January and am a thousand times more active there than I ever was at the birdsite, because my account is growing and morphing to fit MY needs. The same will happen with Lemmy and Kbin, and I hope with peertube and all the others. I keep saying it...the Fediverse is what we should have been doing all along, rather than tolerating the billionaires because it was "convenient".

Why wouldn't I?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, though finding replacements for a lot of Reddit is quite difficult, and a lot of communities I was in on Reddit don't quite feel the same here. ~Nai

Hell yeah! Signed up over on kbin as well. Reddit is dead to me.

Definitely, I mainly use Lemmy now, occasionaly checking in on some niche subreddits then quickly coming back here.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, loving the variety as well as the freedom of using different instances! I'm a huge fan of decentralized projects in general!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Absolutely. I intend to keep browsing on here. Found a few nice places to wander around on and find cool stuff.

Maybe once the hobby subs and smaller game subs come on. Right now a lot of those are staying put on Reddit and not migrating over. It's cool to see someone start those subs here but without content it's just meh.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, after Boost for reddit stops working.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Gonna be using both, until the amount of content starts to be similar and then switch here permanently

Lemmy does not have ads and pop ups to force you download an app. So big yes for

I like the idea of the fediverse but seemed confusing when I tried looking into mastadon (maybe cause I don't use Twitter so I don't get the concept). Lemmy just feels right and intuitive

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I probably will. I like it here

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, I,m finding Lemmy quite intuitive for now although it is far from optimised. I have to say it was a smooth transition from reddit and felt like a band aid ripped off on an instant, hurt for a second but than it´s all good.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Definitely staying!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Maybe, if the people stay but it's unlikely I'll go back to reddit

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yup! A 100%.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Of course! Done with all the mess at the other place.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes, even more likely if I find a good iOS app for Lemmy.
