I think the answers you will get from users who are on lemmy will tend to be positive 😁

Like it so far, not looking for anything else.

I don’t know where else to go.

The best thing about reddit for me was an endless stream of information and news propped up by user discussion. I rarely just scrolled endlessly through posts; I loved delving into comments on posts which didn’t even interest me at face value to see what I could learn from niche communities.

It was, hands down, the best, most information dense landscape I’ve ever seen and frankly I feel a little lost without it. I hope that some day, some where I can find something similar.

Unless something happens, I’m sticking with Lemmy. As for interface and everything, I liked kbin more initially, but I feel like Lemmy development is moving much faster, plus all the third-party development at the moment. As I’ve said in the past, I’m going where the people are. And right now, that’s mostly Lemmy - and since it can federate with kbin, picking between the two is kind of a moot point …at least for now.

Well, true. I may have gotten here though Reddit. But now I’m taken aback by what’s happening here.

I mean, the whole thing is open, FOSS developed, decentralized, being everywhere and at the same time nowhere? Call me crazy, but this in itself is awesome!

On top of that, I was greeted here by a community of communities where people are kind, helpful, full of beautiful and interesting insights.

So why would I be thinking of going somewhere else? I’ve posted more comments here in the past weeks than in the last ten years on Reddit. And I’ve done that because I’m genuinely excited with this setting.

So no, I’m not joining the herd moving to greener pastures. This field is green enough for me.

Once I got Memmy it was done. It’s everything I wanted without all the extra bullshit.

This is my permanent go to. Community already seems great and I hope it gains more traction. The main difference with the change from Reddit is I’ve gone from lurker to trying to be more engaged and posting.

So far it replaced my casual Reddit browsing when I’m bored. But when I want to look at some specific stuff I still need to go to reddit but it’s just to get some information and not really to engage with the community.

It’s no longer just a Reddit alternative for me. Lemmy is Lemmy, and I like it. I’m still waiting for the 3rd party apps of Kbin though.

I really like it. The community is also really cool. More like a small town feel than a huge city like reddit. I hope I don’t have to move anytime soon.

It feels like reddit from ten years ago, and has the critical mass to make it interesting to open and browse. I think it’s a success.

I only use reddit now on revanced rif to visit a couple of communities that are too small to be worth replicating here yet

So far I like it and therefore do not look around for alternatives.

I only hope that it will not remain with the first wave of Reddit migrants but will continue in the coming months and years. Currently, it is still very quiet for my taste, but this is also completely normal.

The only thing that worries me a little is the distribution of the communities.

I don’t think it’s a good idea to have the same community (Like a Subreddit) on different servers. This provides for an unnecessary segmentation of the already not large userbase.

So instead of having one big community for a Topic we have many small ones. This is especially a problem at the beginning, when the userbase is still small.

I’m curious to see how this develops over time. Whether the popular communities will agree on one main instance, or whether apps will reduce the problem to the extent that communities with the same names are combined. It will be exciting to see in any case.

Only if this place moves on from complaining about reddit and posts content. No one finds the “my ex was crazy” phase endearing.

yes :3

1:1 complete replacement - been very happy with Lemmy and Fediverse so far
