Made my account yesterday. I'd never heard of Lemmy so I decided to check it out. So far, it translated pretty well to what I was used to with reddit but it feels a lot like reddit did 12 years ago which is great. Also, there's NSFW posts on my feed! As soon as I saw that, I signed up so fast.
I don't know what the process is to create a community, but I have a few I want to try and bring to the table that may hopefully attract some quality users from subreddits i frequented. Audio production, magic the gathering, thunder basketball, etc.
Also, each and every comment I read from lemmy users feels...genuine? Like everyone has something to add instead of the same stale "this" comments. Overall, it's been great getting to know this website!
