Lemmy feels cozy. Reddit feels unpleasant

I'm doing my part. I had two posts on Reddit. One was superniche and got 30ish points. Whatever, I was happy. It had useful info for the other people on the sub. Then I posted something to the broader community and got two downvotes in like 1 second, killing it. How did they even look at it? I think someone was sitting there gleefully downvoting every fucking thing. I never posted again.

I've been here since mid June and have made 264 posts, like WTF. I'm having more fun here than I ever did on Reddit and I don't get that sick feeling I used to get from seeing all the outrage posts and mean comments (to everyone, not just me).

Loving Lemmy.

Its good to see more competition again.

Still seeing the lil dip when all the apps went dark. Everyone went to say goodbye…🥺🥺🥺

Since the 30th I've stopped going on reddit, but I must admit I still don't participate here as much because the content I'm seeing it's not as tailored to my interests as I'd like. Searching for communities tends to show a lot of communities with no participation at all, which is useless.

Also wished there was a video player. Being constantly redirected to youtube is a bit annoying.

But I'm very happy with Memmy for Lemmy. Not as polished as Apollo, but close enough. And Lemmy feels freer from bot/ai/ad content, and that is worth gold.

fuck spez?.... /s

This is reminiscent of when I was first on Hotmail back in the 90's. I remember getting an email from the Hotmail team when they first hit a million subscribers.... They were bought out by Microsoft within the year.... My username is my original Hotmail address.

Great! I was a bit sceptical about the new users grow in the past weeks, but I think this information is more reliable

@Paulius@lemmy.world Does it only count Lemmy's posts, or does it include other compatible plateforms, such as Mbin?

Lets gooo!

I was there, 3000 years ago \o/

What happened on June 21st? The API shutdown was on July 1st.
