With third party apps added and new niche communities its getting alot better. I'm enjoying it. Also has a high level of discussion a higher level of discussion without karma.

I mostly use Lemmy these days, especially after my preffered third party reddit app got ported over to Lemmy. I only use reddit for a few communities, Lemmy for everything else. I also only use reddit on desktop, never on mobile.

It's literally just reddit for me at this point, i use mlmym.org which gives me the old reddit interface so i barely notice even the slightest difference.

If people didn't make so many posts about drama in the fediverse i would have had no clue there were any problems.

It's pretty good actually, thanks for asking.

I think it still needs to grow and get more stable. I find any browsing all that there isn't enough there for me to use it in the same way I used reddit.

For the first month or so, I would say it was about 40% of my SNS usage, now it's probably about 20-30%. Hopefully as more and more people use it, we get more users and more stable instances.

Honestly, I've loved it. I recommend Alexandrite for desktop and Voyager for mobile.

I've had rich discussion within various communities, and I'm excited to see Lemmy grow, even if it takes some pitfalls and time.

I'm loving it, it feels genuine and authentic without all the bots and algorithms.

Overall, I do like it most of the time, but as of right now my biggest issue is the massive amount of downtime on Lemmy.world. How am I supposed to like it if I can't even use it?

Regretting thr instance i chose and checking for migration options.

Lemmy world is showing some weird reddit vibes when it comes to shoving admin decisions down users throats, even if they dont affect me.

not going well at all to be honest. it's very hard to adjust. but i remember reddit was hard for me too, so i guess i should just put in a bit more effort

The memes are good and I find out about news and stuff the same way I would on reddit. So pretty good.

It depends. I'm on two instances, sopuli and beehaw. Both of them are really welcoming and cool, and I can interact with people without worrying about being bullied or harassed or attacked by random trolls just because they don't like what I say (and trust me, suffering those actions while being neurodivergent is way worse than suffering those actions while being neurotypical).

But I think that more than 70% of the content I see comes from one single instance. Excluding beehaw (they defederated that other instance, and I agree with that), I think that sopuli also has similar communities that are like abandoned or with low amount of content. That's something I don't like.

Signing up for some instances can be annoying, when a few want you to type out a cover letter of why you want to join them. I get trying to weed out bots but god is it tedious.

I use it but some of the smaller communities pretty much are non existent here

Pretty good so far, miles ahead of reddit, it's been nice seeing it grow, have been here for a year and change

When I sort by All I see 90% of what I would be looking for on other sites, so it's a drop in replacement (at least for now). I spend less time overall on lemmy, but the time I do spend is less mindless scrolling, and more actually interesting posts.

Still not as good as Reddit as a platform despite the apps are getting really good. I haven't discovered interesting /c/ and my frontpage is filled with memes and tech news only, it gets boring. The local regional /c/ is pretty much dead. No one bother posting or start a convo.

I learn something new every week about subjects I was decided on for a long time, forcing me to re-evaluate. It seems like there are more knowledgeable people here than on Reddit. I do wish our visualnovels community was more active, but alas, it's a more niche subject that's bound to grow slowly.

I use it just as much as Reddit and generally enjoy the home/all experience much better. What you miss is the niche communities but I feel like the better experience on the “big” communities like !apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world or !technology@lemmy.world make up for it.

It also got me to join mastodon over twitter, so I’m grateful for that as well

I’m liking it. The comments are nice and the content for the most part have been enjoyable. I do miss larger niche communities in reddit. Some really small communities are so small or dead its hard to get it going.

I don’t spend as much time on lemmy as I did reddit. I think I’ve now spent a bit more of that time spread with instagram and YouTube as well.
