& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?

I was a somewhat massive lurker on reddit, I didn't bother engaging much because I knew 60% of the time the reply would be snippy, even if my post wouldn't be remotely combative. So over the years I just stopped bothering mostly.

My inbox has kicked off more here in the last week than probably the last 365 days on reddit. It's really wholesome, for lack of a better term.

All it takes if you commenting, to fire off more comments just like now. It's good shit!

I like that Lemmy users tend to be nicer even when disagreeing. "That's an interesting take, friend. I believe the opposite, because..." type replies are nice to see.

Exactly, it's all it takes right? I do genuinely wonder how many people on reddit were just bots, the amount of vitriol was super unbalanced compared to real people like on old forums. Does make ya think....
