Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I’m just curious to know how y’all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

    I do miss some of the more specialist communities on reddit but honestly this is great for just scrolling stuff, and it’s completely replaced reddit for that.

      This is basically how I feel.

      Reddit had some great aspects. Niche communities about hobbies I might be interested in had wikis with intros on how to get started being something I miss.

      My biggest issue with the Lemmy community is we seem to have brought the thirst-communities and the meme communities in great numbers but the hobby communities are really lacking.

      Generally speaking I’m not interested in pics of attractive celeb number 7864 and while memes are fun their over abundance was why I was looking for a new content aggregator before the API changes.

        I’m also sort of sick of talking about the politics of social media, I’d rather use social media to talk about other more interesting things
