He's here... why does it matter?
I came here because my favorite app, Sync for Reddit, died like the other 3rd party apps. I still use reddit some because the groups I was a part of there don't really exist here, or not with much volume anyway. Ketorecipes for instance... if I want to see new recipes frequently, I gotta go to reddit, but I wouldn't if their content was being x-posted. If I post a recipe it'll be here but in a recipes forum, like many other subject types, you're more commonly a reader than a content maker. I have no doubt the small community here will grow eventually but for now it's limited by the low subscriber/contributer count.
Can Lemmy be more/different than reddit? Sure. Can Lemmy be similar to, a replacement for and yet better than reddit? Absolutely.
