Hello Lemmy, how do you feel about the Reddit migration? (forms.gle)

Hello everyone!

My name is Thatiany Nunes. I hold a master's degree from the Department of Visual Contents at Dongseo University, South Korea. I am conducting a research study to understand the impact of the Reddit migration on Lemmy and its community dynamics.

Some of you might have already received a private message containing open-ended questions. However, I am now reaching out to extend a warm invitation to the entire community to participate in a short, multiple choice survey. This survey aims to gather your experiences and perceptions of the Reddit migration on Lemmy. It will take approximately 5 minutes to complete, and participation is entirely voluntary. Rest assured, all responses will be kept strictly confidential and will be used solely for academic purposes.

Link to the survey:

Mods, if this post violates any community rules, please feel free to remove it or contact me, and I will promptly delete it.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration. Your participation is greatly valued!

Done

The biggest strength and weakness to Lemmy IMO is the lack of content. I doom scroll less but for most niche communities I can't reliably assume that someone else has already made an answered post with a question I might have.

For example if I wanted the answer to a technical question like "What height scope ring do I need to mount a scope to an AR-10 rifle?" I can't find any posts with that answer here, but there's a bunch of posts on the specific topic on Reddit.

(Before someone answers the example question it's usually the tallest or second tallest ones the manufacturer makes. >1.5in)
