lots of people viewing and few posting so posts get more attention but there's less stuff

also less complaining

When browsing the home page (this is just my subjective experience) I have to be more active in blocking political based communities (just not my thing, I like being happy) but if there happens to be a community for some niche topic that I'm interested in (it was pretty much guaranteed that there was one for everything on Reddit) the posts and comments are generally higher quality. Less reposts, less bots, etc.

Overall, a more enjoyable experience if I tailor it, but still too small for it to satisfy all of my niche fandom based needs. I'm choosing to stick with it and share it in the hope that it grows enough to do that.

Windows hate and politics. It's nothing like reddit imo but it's all I've got as I've abandoned reddit.

I like the folk here

I love the fediverse and especially the threadiverse. I'm okay with Lemmy specifically, but I prefer Kbin, and am looking forward to some entirely different option.

It's not as notable as it was in May or June, before the main Reddit exodus, but it still feels sort of like the early days of the internet here. People have to kind of go out of their way to be here, and the system's a bit wonky and obtuse, so there's a pleasant lack of lazy idiots. And I can actually interact with people who actually have things to say, rather than just wading through regurgitated memes and botspam.
