Agreed, it all feels a lot more human and natural. Though I will be glad when this Reddit thing calms down, at the minute we sound a bit like bitter angry ex-partners what with so many posts about it. It's to be expected I know, but once the community has let go of the past we can build a better future, I'm optimistic about that bit!
We may look back in the not-too-distant future and be pretty happy that the angry, bitter, Reddit "thing" happened. An open-sourced, federated model is just healthier than what most of us were satisfied with, before. It took all this to make this mass migration possible.
At some point in the last year reddit hit this critical mass of toxicity that just makes the switch that much easier. To everyone saying that Lemmy is too complicated for mass adoption I say GOOD. The more barriers to that the better.
