Time will tell. Digg was great until it wasn't. Reddit killing my favorite app of 10+ years can fuck off (long live Bacon Reader). Lemmy by design is fragmented which is great, but will introduce momentum problems. Really it's going to come done to; Is their a Lemmy app and server that I can encapsulate most of my interests into and be able to ignore the rest?

[–] potato_pizzareca@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yup! A 100%.

[–] Stu@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Of course! Done with all the mess at the other place.

[–] cgby@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yes, absolutely. It vaguely reminds me of Usenet and I'm not happy with Reddit at this point. I don't see that changing

[–] carson@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I really like Lemmy as a platform, but I still keep going to Reddit a bit because that's where people are. Particularly local communities haven't been interested in moving.

It has enough features and not enough annoying me that i plan to keep logging in every now and again.

It's been alright so far, but going from being a constant lurker to starting to engage has been tough. Lot of the communities that I used to frequent have yet to migrate over and it is hard not having that especially for niche communities. I don't expect this to be an issue in the long run but that's the biggest factor rn.

[–] const_void@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, absolutely. The community over here is 110% better than reddit ever was.

[–] Mulkor@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm hoping to stay if people keep joining and starting new pages. I need a OnePiece sub over here!

If Apollo for Lenny becomes a reality, hell yes!!

Maybe, it seems cool. Still got alot to learn. Like why am I seeing stuff I'm not subscribed to when I filter by subscribed. At this point I don't know if it's a problem with the app, the instance or what. But I'll learn I'm sure.

Yes even thinking about a mastodon account too.

[–] Auduras@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm hoping so, but we'll see how this evolves. I'm new to the whole fesiverse so it has been alittle confusing at first, but I'm getting used to it now ...

Hell yeah! Signed up over on kbin as well. Reddit is dead to me.

Yes!

Lemmy is the lost spirit of early 2010s Reddit I had been mourning for some time even before all the controversy

[–] Infernal_pizza@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hope so, its been active enough so far I haven't felt the need to go back to Reddit other than to check the Apollo subreddit. I don't see Lemmy replacing Reddit in Google search though

If I can get some of the same type sub reddits I was into I'm down. I like the interface.

[–] ChaosAD@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I don't need Reddit.

I don't need Lemmy either, but I like it.

[–] ilex@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago
[–] nakura@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yes. I am liking the experience so far and it has gotten me interested in the rest of the fediverse. There are a few user experience kinks that I think need working out and a few bugs I have run into, but I think they will be fixed with time and they are not deal breakers for me.

[–] aqua@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Tenthrow@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

YES! Definitely staying. I can’t go back to Reddit after all of this.

[–] Drunemeton@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago
[–] araknyd@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Fuck u/spez, but weirdly enough I'm grateful to him because I wouldn't have found out about the Fediverse otherwise.

[–] rmdes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, definitely!

[–] 0x30507DE@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yea, it's pretty nice. I like it a lot more than Reddit, has better vibes.

[–] Rooki@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah i will stay :)

[–] ilovesatan@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

If Reddit fixed 100% of their issues today, probably not. There isn't anything Lemmy does significantly better than Reddit. In the real world, yes I think I'm here to stay assuming Lemmy continues to improve.

[–] sirtwinklebottom@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

If lemmy continues to grow I'm staying.

[–] ganksy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yes of course!

[–] RedirectedPotato@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Right now lemmy and like are still a bit rough since the spike coming from those leaving reddit happened so fast.

However, the development it picking up fast, since its a open source project, so in the coming weeks we'll see many new features, and see the platform improve really fast.

So I think it'll stick with it for a while, because it'll get better

[–] GlitchSir@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

What kind of problems have people been having? Everything has been fine for me but then I’m on an app

[–] StoicLime@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I like the general community vibes here, hope to see some of my specialized subs get some traction too! Gonna do my part!
