What value did you get from Reddit that you hope to realize or expand upon here? (lemmy.world)

For me, it's a few things.

A way to burn time that doesn't feel like a digital sugar rush.
Support, camaraderie, and kindness, primarily from /r/stopdrinking.
Niche stuff, like ideas for local hiking and backpacking trips, propaganda posters, and kayaking info.

Selfishly - A place to essentially have content delivered in an easy to find/use format 24/7.

Less Selfishly - A place to take part in discussions on shared interests & hobbies.

Unrealistically - A Reddit-like archive of posts to help in troubleshooting or recommending things. Pretty much impossible to replicate what Reddit has at the moment, and, if I understand how Lemmy works well enough atm, not something that's going to happen on Lemmy.
