After all of 5 minutes, I'm undecided. It's not Reddit, which is probably a good thing at this point. I need to spend more time here...

Its much harder as a lurker. I do actively contribute to a few communities on Reddit, but they're smaller ones that are unlikely to make the swap :\

Slow at times but it's improving little by little with more contributors and development.

The interface on jerboa is good. Basically legally distinct reddit. The thing is miss most is the content. None of the subs I like are here unfortunately.

I'm already worried about defederations happening and mods of federations getting too big headed on blocking communities.

I love your username! And yeah, I like the direction of where Lemmy is going, especially with the number of users migrating. I used to hate how there were so many things going on in Reddit, however here it's a lot more minimalistic as it's still a very small community. Reminds me of simpler times back then.

I like that the interface is a bit different. Figuring lemmy out is distracting me from my pathetic Reddit withdrawals lol

I like the people and I trust I'm not stuck talking to some Marvel inc corporate intern tasked with promotion for the day on some sub reddit that's run by the company but made to look like a grassroots community

Using mlem... just kinda feels like Reddit thru a third party app I guess. Honestly impressed. Didn't have super high expectations but so far they've been blown out of the water.

not enough videos .

I hate to say this because it may be elitist, but it's been on my mind since joining yesterday: the fact that Lemmy is relatively unknown and relatively difficult to sign up to acts as a good filter at the moment. It's like the early days of the internet where you had to be a certain kind of nerd to have a computer and a modem. It's been great, like the old days.
