Hell yeah. Feels so much more kind here.
Feels like Reddit way back in the day, honestly.
I’m talking like 17 years ago way back.
Loving it! So much fun, silly content!
I haven’t missed Reddit once since I started using Lemmy. This place is a vibe.

Yeah? Well you’re an idiot.
Since we’re bringing back ancient memes:
I’ll be honest, I have not weened myself 100% off Reddit just yet. However, I notice with each passing day since Reddit sabotaged third party apps that I am opening and scrolling through Memmy first and more often than I am doing with Narwhal. So while I have not left Reddit behind just yet, leaving it behind is getting easier by the day as more people start coming over to Lemmy and is becoming more active.

It’s like Reddit, but from 10-12 years ago. And I dig it.
Exactly! I have a 15 year old Reddit account. Lemmy feels like old Reddit when it was new and fresh. I ain’t going anywhere!!
Yo is that the Hasselhoff??

It’s definitely turned me from a lurker to a commenter 😅
Same here. I mostly lurked on Reddit but there’s just such a good vibe going here, I think I will be commenting more.

It would be much better without the constant references to Reddit

Getting there. Just not active enough for me yet. I need go be able to scroll a unhealthy amount all day long dammit :(
But it’s a much better community.
Only thing I’m missing is all of my dedicated subreddits for information I like consuming.
It has a few weird glitches that happen every couple of days, and I haven’t been able to find a way to 100% stop non-English languages from showing up. Every other day my feed will get filled up with posts in Dutch or German or something, I’ll go through block communities and try to keep them out (I just can’t read what they say, so I don’t care to see it). I tried changing my language in the settings, but that doesn’t seem to have stopped it. That and random problems with being logged in seem to affect Memmy on iOS. Otherwise, I’m liking it so far.
Hopefully the momentum continues and the community builds. I was worried about finding a barren wasteland after leaving Reddit, but it seems to be doing well so far.

I’ve honestly been impressed with how fast Lemmy has improved both in terms of technical implementation as well as the quality of the site overall. Memmy has also impressed me with how quickly it is improving as well.
Just made this account, been lurking for a couple weeks. Chill vibes in here, and yeah things are impressively smooth.
Yeah, actually people and communities look less toxic but I guess that would soon change.
Ay! Hope for the best and maybe it won’t!
I like how you accidentally replied four times and people upvoted all of them.

Memmy for Lemmy feels very much like Apollo RIP

I still use both. To be honest, I never understood what the whole freakout blackout thing was about and didn’t really pay it much attention. Big deal, apps no longer work. Who gives a shit. I never used apps anyway, correction I used Alien Blue like 10 years ago. Reddit is still 100% functional using the website. So in my opinion the whole gloom and doom, sky is falling manbaby temper tantrum was a complete overreaction.
Can confirm it’s actually, at least, 800% better. Just getting rid of the bots is great
I’ve only noticed two bots: one that reposts Reddit content (which I have blocked) and another that corrects community links to make them instance-agnostic (I appreciate that bot).
I also see the youtube -> piped video link converter bot popping up sometimes
