Are there any Reddit refugees spending more time on Lemmy than Reddit?
I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it's because I am limited to using the desktop and can't aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.
It won't be the same, but I like the idea of it a lot more than Reddit right now.
Some questions for everyone...
**5-10 years down the road, what's to stop another Digg-Reddit-exodus from happening? As users, what can we do to keep this community prosperous, useful, and "good"? **
The fact Lemmy is decentralised and federated will prevent most of these kind of shananigans from happening.
Also the connection to the FediVerse helps a lot, more eyes on the moderators to keep their rules and values.
Also tons and tons of hope.
