As part of that massive influx, I'm excited!

I've known about Lemmy and Tild.es for some time, but both just seemed so immature. I figured I'd give Lemmy a solid chance to show support for the blackout and because I'm likely to quit Reddit entirely if they don't reverse course (I may quit regardless), and I'm happy to say that this doesn't feel like a downgrade much.

There are plenty of communities for what I'm looking for, so I'm not giving up a lot switching to Lemmy. I'm going to give it a solid chance over the next week or two and do my best to contribute, and if I'm liking it still after that point, I may be able to contribute dev resources (maybe I'll help out with a mobile app or something).

Anyway, I'm excited to be part of this community!
