I’m loving Lemmy. And I’m loving this instance. Great conversation, no bots, no ads. It seems like there are so many intentional, thoughtful comments here (and Lemmy as a whole) than Reddit.

The way I used reddit was to unsub from all of the defaults and only subscribe to smaller communities I was interested in. That with Apollo, was a decent experience, was enough to remove the thought of ‘internet commodification’ while browsing.

But shit, this is awesome. Thank you for making this space a pleasure to use and scroll through. Feels like the old days a bit, we’re all just figuring out this new(ish) space.

I also like this! At first I was a bit bummed out on why I couldn't doom scroll like on reddit.

The fact that the ecosystem was fragmented in multiple little instances made me think that it's possible I wouldn't like it in the end.

But I find myself gravitating more towards my local instances subs then all. (Even though with wafwaf the discoverability factor is severely increased.) The reason is I like the fact that it is a small community.
