When I joined Lemmy one year and some months ago (the instance I'm talking from), this wasn't a desert, but this wasn't a living place either. Maybe I didn't subscribe to some communities, but I could see two or three new posts per day, with a couple of comments in the best case scenario. I didn't do my part either as much as I'm doing it now.
But now, between holding poop for 3 days, or eating beans, or the abundance of users on every instance, this is a neverending party, and I'm happy. I'm still not doing my part posting, but I comment very often. And I even have one account on two instances each (is that correctly said?).
With correct mods, with wholesome admins and with polite users, even disagreeing, these places will be forever my virtual home.
Everyone is welcome in the fediverse.
I got ya fam. You do you, and your doing great.
Happy to be here
Yup I feel the same!
I feel Lemmy got Great potential! Thank you π
I really hope this will stay that way and this isn't just a hype...
I really really hope so too. It seems like some amount of people have gone back to reddit, but if I'm being honest I really don't think that platform is for me anymore. I think it's in everyone's best interests for this to keep growing as it is.
Glad to be here! Thank you too.
Youβre welcome

So far I've only used Reddit to look at OSRS updates, because that's where the mods interact with the community and there's the biggest community giving feedback on the updates. Other than that, for general doomscrolling, Lemmy is great. When Lemmy.World has kept up.
Yes I know I can use other instances, no I didn't know that when I created the account and I don't really want to create another don't @ me.
I've been lurking so far but yes, excited to join in this growing space!
i'm so happy that lemmy exists you don't know, thank you too
And we begin.
