It really feels like Lemmy is alive because of you.

When I first checked out Lemmy, I wasn't expecting there to be so much content, so much discussion, and so much community. But I've spent the better part of two days glued to my screen, browsing content all day. I've seen so many posts, so many interesting discussions about the fediverse, and of course, plenty of memes. It really feels like the start of something incredible.

I've gotta get back to work soon, but wow. I think this whole fediverse thing really is the next step for social media. If I find some extra time, I'll definitely consider contributing to Lemmy's source code to help this project and the FOSS ecosystem grow.

Glad to be with you guys. I was worried that the Internet would be boring after I’ve left Reddit. Well it’s not and it is because of you

[–] Gerula@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Thank you for being here with us!

Even me? Wow

I'm new here, from Reddit, and can honestly say thank you so much and it's been a warm welcome. I'm getting the hang of Lemmy slowly but surely. The community has been helpful to new members and chill as hell. I'm glad to be here as Lemmy grows!

The avid and intelligent discussions I see on Lemmy are heartwarming in itself. Ngl, I never really got that with R*****. Lemmy feels like home. Just wish I would've been apart of it earlier than a few weeks ago

I was finally able to log in!! My other email address never received the verification email and I couldn't resend it for some reason...

Except Dave. You know what you did.

[–] Sinister_Grape@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Man, fuck Dave.

I think Lemmy is really cool, and I'm excited to see where it goes from here!

The performance seems to be a lot better than it was a few days ago as well :) I am not sure if it is because it is daytime and everyone is working but either way!

ETA: Thanks for all the hard work!
