How are you finding Lemmy? I dumped all but Reddit years ago but Reddits become the same as the rest so I just made the switch. Bit of a learning curve on Lemmy with the Fediverse and instances but I’m liking it so far. Honestly having less content and no algorithms pushing never ending feeds means I’ve cut my former “Reddit” time by like 75% haha.
lemmy’s been a godsend for me and i also had a learning curve, but i’m think i’m past the hump at this stage.
i see the “less content” argument over and over again and i feel lucky because it has more than enough content for me since i mostly used reddit and i was active on the political & open source technology subreddits. lemmy was intended to be political and open source tech from the start, so i there’s more content than i could ever consume and i wonder how other people make it work since (mostly americans) tend to avoid both subject areas.
Yeah I’m on a few politics, open source, and tech communities and it’s pretty good, just an adjustment from the sheer volume of Reddit. I’m enjoying being a part of something quieter that really benefits from interaction at this stage, and I’ll probably post more because of that rather than just lurking. Reminds me of what Reddit used to be before it went mainstream.
Any input/recommendations/advice for someone just getting into the Fediverse?
