JuanIs Lemmy THE reddit alternative for you? Are you thinking about moving somewhere else?
DaneIm cautiously optimistic about Lemmy. Short / mid term I’ll be here as it provides probably 90+% of what I was getting out of Reddit. I’m not sure long term how it will work out but so far I have no reason to leave.
I’ve also noticed I just don’t interact with any of it like I used to with Reddit. I used to spend a lot of time just doom scrolling on Reddit. Now I get the highlights of the news, check the sports sun for updates, and then I’m back to the real world. I like that.
██████████Reddit had weaponed Hate to keep you scrolling and raging. At least popular
I like that the Fediverse in general feels much smaller (because it is) than normie websites. You get the feel of old school forums here but not this endless feed of garbage that lends itself to addiction and doom scrolling.
RicazHonestly I think once third-party apps get sorted with subscription or personal API keys, people will return and reddit will keep growing.
I do like the federated model though, and I’ll probably keep using Lemmy too. Feels much more like the “old” reddit from 10+ years ago. Probably because only the old school users have moved to Lemmy.
