    Deleted my account, removed Apollo, starting to feel at home on Lemmy. No way I’m going back.

        Agreed. Feels like reddit but 15 years ago, before the dark times, before the Empire - Loving it so far, and reminds me of how the internet used to be this huge frontier before Corporations, Shareholders, and Advertisers moved in and ruined everything.

        These Communities are smaller and some of the more niche groups aren’t here yet but that will change with time. Give it a year or two, and I’m sure those obscure, hilarious groups like Greendawn will migrate over, over.

          It’s funny how relaxing Lemmy feels. It’s like I’ve been the frog in the slowly heating pot over the years and had no idea how harsh Reddit had become. Right now Lemmy feels like I thought Reddit has always been. But the idea of Reddit now feels so ugly. It’s the same feeling as getting away from bumper to bumper traffic and finally being able to set the cruise control and enjoy the ride.

          That’s my hope for the Fediverse. We’ll get that frontier feel back while also having the giant easy-access network we’ve come to appreciate in the 10’s and 20’s (over).

        Super smooth. Just need the content levels to pick up a bit but that will improve over time as more people catch on

        I was talking about this with a friend - reddit doesn’t have many unique features that folks want, and generally speaking the only thing reddit has of value is the community.

        Hoping folks start migrating to alternatives

        It’s all a bit janky, but I feel like a real pioneer. This is how the pioneers must have felt lol. It’s a good feeling, making my way across uncharted lands, watching it all unfold and grow…
