Managed to make me post and comment at all, which is more than reddit has ever done to me. Literally made my account around an hour ago too.

Gerally it's decent.... I don't use it anywhere near as much as I used Reddit but I'm not sorry to see the back of that place.
It can be a little buggy sometimes, responses dont post or further posts fail to load. I think the lack of consistency is whynim using it less at the moment but overall, happy chappy :)
I like it but definitely miss some of the more niche subreddits that I followed back on reddit, but hopefully those come over as Lemmy grows.
@alphapro784 I feel like I'm using it wrong. I only see replies in my feed, not the original question. Probably user error on my part. Just haven't had the time to explore it.
I miss some of the subs from reddit but I don't want to deal with their app.
I'm digging it so far. Nothing to complain about. Just being patient with it's growth. Great potential.
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.
Great but thereβs some frustrations. My instance appears overloaded and often voting or commenting fails. Iβm also using alpha software so itβs unstable. And the communities are much tinier and quieter.
Iβm sure in a few weeks there will be some big improvements. Early mastodon was like this too.
I'm liking it so far. What I've seen so far seems like the lemmy community is much more giving and less toxic than reddit.
Really good at the moment. I think i will enjoy a better lemmy when Boost will be out, just because i'm better in touch with that app for years now. Not that wefwef is bad, im also surprised for the recent updates it has got. The only things i really miss are a larger MTG community and the "Random NSFW" lol
Good quality memes so far, content for specific communities such as games or sports is lacking
Now that I've gotten used to the differences I'm enjoying it, fills a lot of the whole left by reddit. The only thing I'm missing is the scale of the user base making some of the more niche subreddits I used to spend the most time on not have a very active analog here
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.
I find it refreshing, for the most part. I've found that comments and replies are much more civil, I'm still getting used to the way users here disagree with actual reasoning while maintening respect for the other perspective. I had ads blocked before, but being absolutely ad free, without even the blank space where an ad would go is even better. The only downside is the amount of space dedicated to complaining about reddit. I don't wish to stop anyone from processing in whatever way they need, I just need to spend more time in my subscriptions instead of "all".
I miss Relay, my reddit app.
I realy like it, but I miss RIF. I use Jerboa now, but might switch an app. RIF was realy usefull for not looking at stuff (loading it) for seccond time. I saw purple link and just skipoed the post, without needing to open it or to load the image again.
It has been fun so far. Just wishing more content eas here, but hopefully it'll increase with time.
Loving in, and it gets better every day
It's a little routh around the edges but I love seeing how instances are developing. Also the vibes seem to be more united here.
