I don't know how I never stumbled upon Lemmy before, I've been looking for a worthwhile alternative to Reddit for over a year now. Guess I wasn't looking hard enough!

@LemmyNameMyself There clearly seems to be an uptick in Lemmy usage. I am on Friendica and just stumbled to this post in the Global Community tab after I saw a plethora of other Lemmy posts (yes, I am commenting on your post from a different social network altogether). This never happened ever since I joined the Fediverse almost a year ago (damn, how the time flies). The vast majority of the posts used to come only from Mastodon.
I am glad that the Fediverse is starting to become more diverse (ba-dum-tsss)
@aRatherDapperFox
The ability to interact across platforms is pretty incredible. I've been looking into other fediverse platforms since my introduction to Lemmy -- thank you Reddit! ๐ฅฐ
KBin looks interesting. I'm familiar with Mastodon, but before looking into Lemmy I never really understood what it meant that it was "federated". Tell me more about Friendica, please? If you don't mind, that is.
First, I love your username.
Second, both of those sound intriguing. I'll be signing up for PixelFed for sure.
