I haven’t gone back to Reddit since the rapture. The only time I use it is for Google results.
I use Lemmy A LOT less than Reddit. This is a good thing imo.
Since it’s a smaller community I find that my posts and comments get a lot more traction.
I miss the smaller niche subs. Yes I know that I should contribute and make it a thing on Lemmy. No I won’t because I’m mostly a lurker and would rather just close the app than do any work.
I like how the platform is full of socialist/communist but it can become a bit of an echo chamber.
Are you me? Every point you made mirrors my own Lemmy experience.
The only thing i would add is that i really miss the quality of some of the content, which i would just attribute to the difference between userbase size and by sheer numbers meaning more high quality content to rise up to the top.
I would say on reddit that i would almost never get through the days ‘top content’ for me before i started losing interest in posts, whereas here i can run out within 15-30 mins and then im among duplicate posts, yesterday’s posts or just things that dont interest me much.
But i also put this down to the wider range of subreddits providing more variation and extra content, so perhaps i just have to spend more time finding more lemmy communities to draw from on other instances.

Overall I am happy with the change. Fuck Spez.
