Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)
Being honest: confusing. I can’t really decide if I like it or not right now.
It’s quite different from Reddit as in: you only see what you’re interested in (unless you’re in a big instance like lemmy.ml), but you have to look for it. Don’t get me wrong, this can be great! But there were situations where I accidentally found a niche subreddit that really matched stuff that I liked. I see that as more difficult here, but I might be wrong! Only time will tell
