I gotta say, I respect what Lemmy does and hope it succeeds, and I think it's a good place for discussions and such (and I will remain), but good god if this place isn't unfunny as hell. I'm struggling real hard to find some place with actually funny content on here, which leads to me getting exceedingly riled up by politics.

One of my largest pain points with Lemmy is that there are multiple active communities for the same topic, causing quite a few duplicate posts to show up in my feed that is difficult to filter. Hopefully there comes some kind of solution, outside of userbase, this is (what I believe) one of the larger issues compared to Reddit.

However, I still switched over to Lemmy for my primary 'Reddit'-needs.

What constitutes an active user? Is a new lurker like myself counted or is there a threshold of minimum action needed to be counted?

Lets make this a new reddit but better!

I will shitpost harder.

I'm doing my part!

I am ready to give up Reddit, we need more communities to move here!

Nice. Might as well leave my first comment here. Hi!

Yesterday was the first day that Lemmy activity tipped over the threshold, and there were too many overnight posts for me to read all of them over breakfast.

I'm glad to be part of this renaissance of the forum.

LONG LIVE THE THREAD!! LETS GOOOOOOOOO

Is anyone else just enjoying seeing people create actual user names again and not just using the automatically generated ones reddit has done for awhile?

A lot of folks here are talking about Reddit being shitty but I switched because I'm in Europe and I don't want to enrich especially US Companies off of my personal data.

Reddit's auto moderation has gone haywire. You can't say anything bad about nazis now.
