Asklemmy

I’m liking it. The comments are nice and the content for the most part have been enjoyable. I do miss larger niche communities in reddit. Some really small communities are so small or dead its hard to get it going.

I don’t spend as much time on lemmy as I did reddit. I think I’ve now spent a bit more of that time spread with instagram and YouTube as well.

It depends. I'm on two instances, sopuli and beehaw. Both of them are really welcoming and cool, and I can interact with people without worrying about being bullied or harassed or attacked by random trolls just because they don't like what I say (and trust me, suffering those actions while being neurodivergent is way worse than suffering those actions while being neurotypical).

But I think that more than 70% of the content I see comes from one single instance. Excluding beehaw (they defederated that other instance, and I agree with that), I think that sopuli also has similar communities that are like abandoned or with low amount of content. That's something I don't like.

When I sort by All I see 90% of what I would be looking for on other sites, so it's a drop in replacement (at least for now). I spend less time overall on lemmy, but the time I do spend is less mindless scrolling, and more actually interesting posts.

The memes are good and I find out about news and stuff the same way I would on reddit. So pretty good.

I really like it and use it every day. I still use old.reddit.com a bit but I like Lemmy and Kbin more.

I run out of content to read much more quickly than I did with Reddit, so I'm antsy/restless more often, because I pick up my phone and then have nothing to do on it.

Lemmy is great. So great that I named myself after it (my nickname was just "Resol" before then, now it's obviously "Resol van Lemmy", it sounds very Flemish). I do have a problem with it though. Most communities I was active on on Reddit are either nonexistent on Lemmy or just not big enough to maintain daily activity, making them look like ghost towns. Also, I had to shuffle between different clients because I didn't have a satisfactory experience with some, I'm currently using Sync because the interface is so nice (although I like how Jerboa shows the upvote to downvote ratio in addition to the total score). In addition to all this, I got help cutting down on screentime thanks to the Fediverse. I just didn't have much addiction anymore, which is always a good thing. I don't know what else to say.

So I used lemmy world and then lemmy winks because world had up time issues and now I keep making ones on new instances seeing as winks seems to be dead

Memes are about the only consistent content on lemmy

Very good. Seems like a nice place to be in.

Pretty good, though I'm not mainly using Lemmy directly. I run a Kbin instance that I've been using primarily, but I've also been testing Artemis with the developer's artemis.camp instance, and I have Infinity for Lemmy signed into my lemmy.world account.

There's less content here than on Reddit, but I think it's higher quality. There's less trolling and shitposting here (unless seeking it out on purpose then there's plenty).

The only thing I miss from reddit is the ability to use lemmy as a supplement to stack overflow. I still use teddit to occasionally find old posts on places like r/learnprogramming

I'm a junior web dev so I still benefit from old posts that answer basic questions, but I do wish I could just do a ddg lite search and be able to type in 'lemmy' and get the answer to my question.

Otherwise there's just certain subreddits I wish there was a corresponding community here on Lemmy like specific Indie Video Games. These are small issues and I hope Lemmy popularity grows. Not just for my personal wants, but just cuz I like decentralized alternatives as their simply more authentic imho.

I'm only just starting the last week or so, but I feel like because it's a bit smaller there's better discussion. Most minor annoyance with it though is some quality of life things not being there like RES (browsing everything with J + K etc.) and that multiple times a day it gives me Server Error / Cloudflare error pages.

I joint today because Kbin is very slow to browse, so I figured I create an account here, but I don't get why there is a lemm.me and lemmy.world which both look identical but it seems I can't log in there using my username here?
