Ask Lemmy

As of right now, I'm using Lemmy and just getting the feel for it. I think once some of the other larger 3rd party apps start getting released for Lemmy (Sync, Boost, etc.), it'll drive more people to creating an account and creating more communities. When compared to reddit, it's quite dead at the moment, but that can change once people start creating communities and participating. Time will tell if this is the "next reddit" or just the transitional phase.

I use reddit.club

There's a somewhere else?!

As a lurker, lemmy is bustling with content, will be scrolling here for a while.

The only problem right now is content. We still have a small userbase. Discussions have been good, tho, and time will bring more people.

It's a tough hole to fill. Lemmy is neat but still has a lot of growth to do.

just throwing my random input in to the pot. still using Reddit via Boost but also checking into Kbin and some of the Lemmy servers as well via the Connect app for Android. I like Lemmy I just miss how Reddit had "everything in one place" if that makes sense.

I think I'm doing something wrong because I feel like I have to make an account for each server or "instance" I visit and that's annoying.

So far it's been a nice experience once I find "subs" and stuff I like there's just some growing pains I guess. idk man, I'm a lil inebriated atm

I like it but there is sparse activity on most of the Android instances. 😟 Lemmy kind of seems like several of ants scurrying around on a big mound right now. Am a big BoostforReddit fan and am hanging out on Jerboa until their Lemmy app is released.

Pretty hopeful. I'm in the process of setting up a server to try and host a few communities. Should get it online by the end of the month. I figure if as many people as possible just host a few communities (i.e. cherished Reddit subs that aren't here yet) then we can save the major instances the pain of trying to host everything for everyone and take real advantage of building a truly robust decentralised network

For now this is where I've landed and the community seems to be growing at a steady pace. As long as this place keeps growing and evolving, then I'm here for the long haul.

I’m using Lemmy and Spyke, both are pretty good although Spyke is rather inactive.

I'm trying, but I don't understand how I'm supposed to discover new content.

The default view just shows the same three or four communities on lemmy.world. if I change to show stuff from all, it just shows some three or four global communities instead.

Lots of memes from [email protected] but basically nothing else.

Where am I supposed to discover communities?

Ironically threads isn't a reddit clone even though the threadiverse exists

As long as content keeps showing up on my feed I've got no reason to go anywhere else.

I actually prefer this over reddit. Currently, I’ve yet to come across any infighting or holier than thou types and it’s nice. People on here are more real and don’t seem like keyboard warriors who think they know everything with no real world experience. I’m sure they are here, but I haven’t come across any yet.

I joined multiple to have many feeds

Yes indeed!
