I've moved on. Lemmy is where it's at. I only post on reddit to promote lemmy now :-) It's my new game. Polite and respectful suggestion of an alternative. But, it's better to just be here, get to know people, figure out how it works and enjoy the learning experience
hear hear!
i LOVE it here. I was just in reddit then, for old times sake, after reading this thread ;-) and the anger and negativity is real. It's SO good here. This is like the old days of the net, with modern tech. I LOVE it
Same! I am posting a polite comment when appropriate about the fediverse and Lemmy explaining how it works and responding to respecful comments/questions. There are some vicious people in the replies but I just report and don't engage.
Lemmy is great! Let's gooooooo!
Yep, its helpful to just let people know there are alternatives. While everyone was angry it just didn't feel like there was anywhere else to go and it felt kinda hopeless. Lemmy is not the same as reddit, but to me its a viable alternative and the people that will want to put in effort on it are the people I want to help and see posts and comments from
I really think that we should have picked an alternative before the blackout protest. I didnt find Lemmy until the blackout and then there was no where to talk about it or tell people to come here. Oh well 130k + people still found there way here.
