I was looking for a reddit alternative that was similar to how mastodon works and found lemmy. I don't like mastodon very much, but I thought the mastodon concept works much better when you have smaller communities decentralized over multiple instances. Kind of like all those bb-forums back in the day, but through a single interface/client.

So naturally, I do like Lemmy but it still kind of has the same problems I have with Mastodon. I want to go into detail in a full post at a later time, but in general it comes down to the user experience not being great. I have quite a lot of ideas for improvements

I'm just chilling and getting comfy. then I'll start contributing after I feel out the vibe here.

I've officially exceeded my reddit post count, not saying much, but I'm trying

@GatoB I'm trying to make the best effort I can, I started a London community and been making content for it and cross posting whatever I come across that could work there. So far I gotten around roughly 50 subscribers and some engagement in my posts. I'm reaching out for engagement so if you want to join in and make this something I'd really appreciate it.

... Or if you want to lurk I'm good with that too, I'd appreciate the eyes more then anything at this point.

I hope someone makes a standard issue cat community.

Sadly I'm really busy with uni right now, but it seems like a good site to spend time with. More like a 2014 and earlier organic kind of spend time rather than a modern algorithm sickness kind of spend time. I'm actively participating in whatever seems interesting.

Tell us how to create communities!

Honestly, after spez described this protest as "noise".... I said F- that. And, now I host lemmyonline.com.

Cheers to the movement.

Easier said than done. Every time I try to post something it just hangs.

I'm happy to make content again, I was more active before karma mattered, as the bots and reposters took over I (and I think many) stopped.

Fired up my own instance to spam it with all the things, please remember to subscribe to communities on multiple instance's and support small instances!

Its a hard habit to kick, especially for the casual user.

I'm here. I last commented on Reddit many moons ago but I'm here

I would post images first and foremost, but I've veen having troubles doing so. Maybe in a few hours I'll be able to post some OC memes or something of the sort
