I miss the niche communities that I followed on reddit. There was a lot of sharing and discussion of knowledge there and I learned a lot about my hobbies. I feel more alone in my hobbies and interests now, I have no one to talk about them here.

On the general content side, I’m fine with Lemmy, there’s a lot less to scroll through and I spend a lot less time without feeling like I’m missing out, which is not a bad thing for me. I still can get my jokes, cats and memes in a smaller dose with a lot less reposting than reddit had. Another thing I like about lemmy is that I can interact with the more general content (like right now) without being the billionth comment that no one is going to read anyway
