Just checking the vibe. I see that this community doesn’t have much activity, but maybe people are interested in migrating here amidst the reddit controversy.

    yep! the only thing i used reddit for (other than funny pictures, which we could all realistically do without) was tech support and discussing linux-related topics. And it seems, at least for now, the userbase swings pretty heavily towards tech savvy people so I’m sure this place will be great :)

    I migrated fully from reddit. Deleted my comments and account. This will be my replacement for r/archlinux

    Yep! I’m going to hand my subreddits over to others in their respective communities, and possibly delete my account after that.

    I have high hopes for Lemmy.

    I’m a Redditor immigrant. I think Lemmy is a much better fit for the Arch community, and have had this transition on my mind since the Twitter buyout. I’m hoping this push will bring enough of us over that it sticks.

    Yeah, I’m here for the foreseeable future… my rif app is gone, and I don’t think I’ll install it, just like when twitter became fedilab (I’m on linuxrocks.online over there), I’m going deeper into the fediverse.

    And I’ll admit… Since I joined both apps have been growing on me quite fast

    I started using Lemmy last week and for a couple days it was slow (in terms of activity). But especially after Monday, activity is REALLY starting to pick up. I have high hopes for Lemmy and hope not to go back to Reddit.

      When I first hopped on there wasn’t much happening, and the servers were quite stable. The last few days, basically since the AMA have been mad. Loads of engagement, sooooo many Timeout errors, been good 👍

    Planning on it for the most part, likely to use in conjunction with reddit if they reverse API decisions though.

    I’ve been feeling a bit done with reddit for a while now. This is the first time I see such a viable alternative! I really think if things like this pick up traction the internet will get better for once.

    I’ll give Lemmy a try, now and currently this seems to be the “to go” community for Arch Linux. So I’ll be around here for a while.
