Yes. For the time being. Would love to see larger migration from reddit.

I can’t say I will stay on Lemmy. But I won’t return to Reddit.

Yes, but

The site needs a ton of UX polishing to keep “lazy users” hooked (something I think it’s critical if you want to harvest as much users as possible from this fire). I feel like software developers tend to be more conscientious internet citizens that fight for their rights and seek independence, so I’m hoping that gives an influx of fixes/bug reports on lemmy’s github repo leading to stability, but maybe we also need to find ways to collaborate with front-end/brand design people (?)

I’ll stay and hope it becomes my go-to Deddit replacement. I like the lack of karma, and the posts and comments seem of a higher quality.

Time will tell. Digg was great until it wasn’t. Reddit killing my favorite app of 10+ years can fuck off (long live Bacon Reader). Lemmy by design is fragmented which is great, but will introduce momentum problems. Really it’s going to come done to; Is their a Lemmy app and server that I can encapsulate most of my interests into and be able to ignore the rest?

I think it’s looking very promising. I’ll agree with others here that if the users come on, some of the bugs get worked out, and an Apollo like app gets created Id be happy to call this home.

I’ve been a serious Reddit user since the digg incident so it really is like the end of an era.

I like Lemmy so far and I’m definitely not installing the Reddit app once RiF is dead, we’ll see how things go.

Definitely. I’ve gone all-in on the non-corp social media: Lemmy, Mastodon, Peertube, Pixelfed, so far. This is a refreshing experience. I know that what I am shown has nothing to do with an algorithm designed to keep me engaged and looking at ads. LOL Social media run by people in the society, not corporations, is the water I put my boat into.

No, unless at some point, most content is no longer about Reddit and Lemmy! Trying to give it a good chance for now.

I realized how much of a marketing cesspool Reddit has become once I left it. That along with the whole doom scrolling has been toxic to my mental health. So I am much better off without it.

That said, the fediverse seems to be a little too small especially for niche topics. Plus the this world still needs some tool/interface to unify it and make it easier to use. I still go back reddit once in a while for those niche communities but I have logged out for the first time in a decade+ from reddit.

I have started focusing on my hobbies more, the whole reddit fiasco has been a reminder that it is not just FB that is bad, it is everything including Reddit and in time possibly places like this if it grows.

Just tried it for a few hours. Seems good, similar to reddit. But yeah, the fediverse part is confusing.

Some issues I have so far are, (1) when searching for communities, it seems that they are fragmented throughout the fediverse, whereas in reddit they are in one place. which makes it kinda odd and well (2) it’s kinda small-knit. which I guess is good but feels odd coming from a large site to a small one.

Still, I’m gonna give it a try. to me its something new but similar :)

When people look up things on google, they specifically look for a solution posted on reddit, I know I do. Lemmy needs to be used as a way for people to solve problems, before it can take over what reddit is used for now. I’m staying on Lemmy because I like the idea of a functioning reddit alternative.

Slick interface. Text-heavy. OG Redditors.

I’ll stay for sure if it picks up.

I feel so let down by Reddit. I had two accounts with a combined Karma score of 800k. I only posted original content. I posted thousands of comments over years. Reddit was an ingrained part of my daily life for years.

Then both accounts were permanently suspended immediately after I called out a bot phishing scam. Two appeals rejected.

Reddit is hedging everything on AI / LLM populating the entire site. Who needs human content creators anymore?

So, yeah. If Lemmy grows, I’ll be arguing, trolling, and jesting for many years to come.

Depends on the content, really.

I really hope this migrating-from-Reddit thing will work. I’d really like to stay.
