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.
You're viewing a single thread.
Absolutely! The vibe is more chill. There's not the content churn there was on Reddit, but when I examined my consumption habits on Reddit I realized most of the churn was just reposts anyway. Lemmey is all the meat, and none of the fat.
Oh! Almost forgot, most of the instances are getting hammered and are all volunteer run, so big helpings of kindness and patience are helpful, and if you're able doing the whole "Toss a coin to your Witcher" thing will help keep the lights on. I'm trying to think of a commercial website or service that has undergone this level of growth without just completely falling over, and I'm coming up blank. I blame FOSS. 😉
