When I was on Reddit I felt like my opinion didn’t matter. But here it just feels more open and free.

Nah. Thankfully my mindless scrolling time has taken a dive, which is an issue I had been meaning to address regardless.

Yeah, I mean, I'm not the most active, but I made a sublemmy (I'm still not sure about the naming convention here lol) and that's something I never did on Reddit, because everything was usually already there in some form. I also did it to contribute, because I know that us being active actually counts for something. On Reddit I could go months without posting or commenting. So yes, I'm definitely more active and it feels like you are actually engaging with other people and not just consuming content.

Undoubtedly! I was always more of a lurker, but I think I've posted as many comments here in the last couple of weeks as I did in 11 years of Reddit... Lemmy is, somehow, much more inviting.

I'm not very active yet as there are only a few subs that match. Once there are more...

So far trying to find my old communities I would run with, can’t seem to find all of them.

I did once find /r/FeedTheBeast on lemmy but no longer can find it on here!

Once I get my rotation I will def use this way more.

Reddit quality has markedly deteriorated in my opinion.

Maybe it’s just my imagination.

Basically everything works but the content is less engaging!

I had a burst of activity on Lemmy and then slowly wound down to mostly lurking.

Not sure why. Maybe Apollo dying tomorrow will kick me again to participate

I have been forcing myself to interact to get used to the interface for about a week now. The death of RIF is also what prompted me.

Don't be delusional, our opinions still does not matter.
