Hi it's me
And we're off!
i hope this becomes a way bigger thing than reddit
Even if it doesn't, it's already feeling like a much nicer, more welcoming, more active and inclusive community. I wouln't want to gain in user count, only to lose that. Hopefully the "instances" will help maintain a "village" mentality even as things grow.
I feel like Reddit had that thing going where everyone sorta hates everyone.
Heck, I started exploring the Fediverse as soon as the drama with Apollo happened and I wasn't even a user. That's just shitty business.
I'm one of them (created this account 10 days ago, but had another one from 15 days ago when I finally decided to join Lemmy and wanted to test this, the other one is from an instance which has some blocked instances, so I came to Lemmy.world), I hope Lemmy grows a lot, not to compete with Reddit, but to build a big and diverse community where we don't need anything from Reddit (interesting and informative posts, guides, tutorials, etc for example).
Hi
I feel like I am reliving my Digg exodus. It wasn’t such a hard cutover, though.
Need a simpsons bush meme
Boost for reddit isn't off yet but it's just a matter of time. Setup this account today and downloaded jerboa. Trying to figure everything out but hopefully this isn't an echo chamber like reddit is.
I did it!
