So is everyone actually staying here? I hope so. I am. I don’t really miss Reddit at all and I’m incredibly impressed how fast the community here is growing. I hope we can keep it going and let Reddit burn to the ground.
Yeah I will stay hear. And not just because I burnt my account. I nearly found all communities I were active in. I try to be way more active and post more stuff than I used to because these new Comms really need all the love and content each and everyone of us can hring to them.
This is how Lemmy and co can survive and thrive not by waiting for content to arrive.
I’m staying, the Fediverse is a new realm, and I get to be a part of building it
I miss it. There’s just not enough people here. Refreshing doesn’t bring hardly anything new, none of my favorite communities exist, and where they do they’re so small that nothing gets posted for an entire day.
I mean, I know these things take time but I’m pessimistic.
Time to be the change :)
I miss reddit too, but I’m realizing that I miss what I thought it was, and not what it is becoming. It’s useful to remember that for mastodon it took years, and many separate waves of migration, for it to have its current use base. So, when people say it will take time, and it will be hard, this is what they’re talking about.
It’s different but not in a bad way. If we all stick at it we can make it what we want it to be. I just can’t see reddit changing course at this point. Decentralisation is really the way forward.
I do too, tbh i miss the less techy people. People that aren’t particular comfortable with new fangled technojiggeties just figured out reddit, they’ll take a long time and a lot of client improvement to come here…
Honestly I kinda like how slow things progress around here
I refresh and nothing changed so I go do something else for a little while, it’s pretty nice NGL
Yeah, yesterday I was bored and went on Lemmy, I just had gone a bit much and didn’t have anything new interesting, so I went and relearned Plant Tissues and relearn about atoms on a new website I had discovered, had a great time
Actually true. This is what I have been doing as well
I think it was about time we slowed down the Internet, corporation backed megasites are becoming unsustainable after the end of ZIRP and venture capital drying up. Also it’s so full of bots and mindless people right now it isn’t funny.``
Yup. Reddit as we knew it is dead, no matter what else happens
Personally I do miss Reddit. Mostly because it was just so convenient: easy to use and you got active communities for basically anything you’d want.
However quiting it so instantly has shown me how reliant I was on it to serve as a single gateway to information on the internet.
So I guess as a consequence I’ll try to stick around here (find instances for my interests), but also diversify my online presence a bit more. Maybe look at some specific forums and browse a few more websites directly

I will stay
Day 2 and counting… Old Reddit was great. After a while I had no idea where all the smart people went.
It all depends on if the communities about topics I’m interested in start gaining some activity. So far it’s mostly meta, memes, and remakes of the very largest subreddits, which is the type of stuff I typically ignore over there.
Like others have said, this is an opportunity to build something new and be the change we want to see. This mindset has led to me posting more here in the past week than the 10 years or whatever I was on Reddit.
I don’t really have a lot to contribute, its only recently I went from being a lurker to really engaging with the community on Reddit, perhaps here I will feel more like engaging instead of just doomscrolling until my eyes fall out.
I already “burnt the boats”, so you lot are stuck with me now.
I’m gonna wait and see how the situation develops.
