I don't think so. The migration to Lemmy was minuscule. It's still huge, like very huge, but now that I use Lemmy more than Reddit, differences are obvious. Reddit is so massive that it has become a wrestling arena, Lemmy on the other side, is a more quiet place where civilized dialogue is above anything else. It's a matter of tastes, but I feel better here.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=EiZhdpLXZ8Q&

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

If Reddit is a mall for ideas, then Lemmy is more like an economy for ideas. Or many malls that are linked by an instant, intergalactic transport system. You know, I'd probably go back to malls if they had that.

We need an article summary bot up in here man. I got walled off after a few paragraphs and it wanted my email to store in their database😅

Reading mode defeats that a lot of the time if your browser supports it

I know it's bad when the front page is majority popular posts from the last 10 years and nothing new

Ah, Reddit, the virtual black hole where productivity goes to die and cat pictures go to thrive. It's like a carnival of opinions where everyone's a self-proclaimed expert, and the upvote button is the ultimate ego booster. You can find discussions ranging from quantum physics to the proper way to butter your toast – because, you know, those are equally vital life skills. And let's not forget the endless scrolling that turns minutes into hours, leaving you wondering if you've just time-traveled into the future of wasted time. So, here's to Reddit, where your to-do list goes to hibernate and your inner procrastinator gets a standing ovation! 🎉
