I like it so far. But I think the large amount of reddit users won't like how separate everything is. Most of my friends and colleagues I've mentioned and shown it to, didn't like it for that one reason. Reddit is a singular easy to access place with communities for everyone that is popular.
Fediverse (Lemmy in particular) needs to simplify I think for people to be able to adapt to it. My girlfriend made an account and is having trouble finding groups for herself, but willing to take the time cause I'm next to her all the time. But not everyones got that.
edit: also, i am using Memmy for Lemmy now on IOS, nice to have when not at my PC. Good app so far.
