I will never go back. Lemmy and Mastodon are just amazing.
Same brother. Still using Reddit from time to time though but wouldn't touch Xitter with even a pair of pliers.
It's true that Lemmy doesn't have the same magnitude of content as Reddit but I'm trying to cut down on the doom scrolling so it's a good thing for me personally.
^Because of your username :p^
They really are, wished they had more diverse communities like reddit.
Reddit pretty much only had tech, humour, atheism, racism and cp its first 5 or 6 years as a platform.
So, we're right on track?
Yeah we're kinda doing well. Retaining 50k mau from the initial user burst is really good and Lemmy was technologically really bad at the time. Its a lot more developed today. I think next time reddit fucks uo we spike to over 100k users and steadily grow from there.
That'll come over time. Reddit didn't start with all those diverse groups either. It was mostly tech based stuff with some news sprinkled in initially.
