Since June 2023, like 90% of the users on here.
click on my name :)
Holy shit. How did you get to know about Lemmy and why did you join?
Not OP but reddit and the piracy subreddit
At the time I knew what the fediverse was and I was using Mastodon quite consistently, and I was waiting for a federated alternative to reddit. Raddle at the time was already a thing, but federation was not on their roadmap.
As per how I found it... here's a comment from four years ago :)
The hero we need, but not the one we deserve
Are you one of the Elders of the Internet?

Just since The Incident at the Other Place.
Before the dark times. Before the Empire.
In the before times, in the long long ago

June 22nd, 2023.
I was simultaneously desperately hoping RIF for Reddit wouldn't die...
Now however, I'm still sad about RIF, but very happy about being here on Lemmy!
June 16th, 2023
16 June 2023 - my account appears newer than that because I switched instance.
Since January 2021. I left Lemmy for about a year, then came back during the Reddit blackout.
June 1st, 2023 = 102 days
3 days now. I miss the abuse of reddit. Jk
since the beginning of time! Like 2 months ago, it was a Tuesday I think.
Longer than I thought. When I tried to register I was annoyed that the username was taken, but it turned out they also dropped the info in my password manager back in 2021!
My very first account was in Feb of 2022, but i kinda abandoned it until the 3rd party apps blackout on June 12. Then i came back and really started to kick the tires.
December of 2022. I was moving away from closed-source social media, and after Twitter -> Mastodon, Reddit was next. I didn't become active til the whole API thing tho, because Lemmy didn't have some communities that I liked. So I made one lol
I signed up to see what it was about during the Redditmageddon. I'm still on both sites and always will be though.
See my cake day.
2-3 months I think? I could check, but that's just too much effort.
Like it a lot so far though!
3 months.
June 7th, 2023
Since the day before the Reddit strike… so mid June?
Just a few months ago.
27th August 2023
I knew about Lemmy for nearly 2 years prior to The Blackout and slowly gained some traction after the birth of the instance I created my account in (which started as a subreddit but for reasons around one year ago their exodus began)
Two years, apparently. I posted like two comments and came back after the Reddit API crisis to never look back.
an hour.
hi
(to be fair i did check things out here every once in a while since the api debacle but i didn't sign up until now)
4 years, everything was great until the redditors brought their bullshit.
