I've noticed two things.

I am a lot more active. On Reddit I was mostly just a lurker. On Lemmy I want to comment and post.
Following on from 1. It feels more like a community here, on Reddit after a post had a certain number of comments/upvotes, I knew that mine would never be seen. I don't have that feeling on Lemmy.

Posts federate to other instances - even off Lemmy - at different speeds. Those of us on Pleroma/Mastodon who browse TWKN will just see random posts from wherever, and how popular the post is ends up being irrelevant.

Enjoy your first tiny taste of what the internet is like out there lemmybro.
