People who don't use other social media apart from Lemmy... how do you explain this decision to the average Joe with accounts for all existing social media?

Hard to understand what you’re asking, but really the only thing I use is lemmy.

Just started it though.

I like the customization and flexibility the platform offers, and I like the decentralization.

I don’t know what will happen in the long run but I appreciate the lack of materialism. It’s just people talking, and memes.

Sorry if I didn’t phrase my question correctly, english is not my native language. I’m also new to Lemmy and I love it so far (there had been some issues but it is expected from a newish platform with a rapidly growing user base). The lack of materialism is very much appreciated indeed and I think it is very lacking in our capitalist/cult of personality driven society.
