Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)
So far it’s been amazing! Although I find myself switching from Lemmy to Reddit and vice versa because of some subreddits aren’t here yet, it’s been a pretty good experience.
I do miss karma tho :3
No karma means fewer bots and less incentive to turn instances into echo chambers. It’s precisely what I like about mastodon.
oh god not me. or rather not how many subs require a certain amount to be able to participate… the barrier of entry for some communities was ridiculous
