Its wild to me how active lemmy feels compared to mastodon. I told my normie friends about it when I found out about it during the migration and they insisted that it would die and recently I was able to update them and say its still going strong and its got its own unique vibe that feels different from reddit.

It's because you can actually have discussions on Lemmy, whereas microblogging like mastodon is just "old man shouts at cloud" multiplied by 2 million people. I never understood the appeal.

Not getting this experience on Mastodon. I hopped on after Lemmy, but so far I've had several positive back and forths with people.
