Reddit is still a lot more crowded, but I prefer Lemmy simply because of no ads and the actual conversations that you can have with people.
This is exactly how I feel. Reddit is so full of bots, spam, and ads that it's really only good for checking a few niche subreddits. I can browse Lemmy at random and be pretty entertained.
Reddit comment is just bot paradise, once i realise bot just do repost and copy/paste comment, the value and urge of adding my own comment just immensely decrease.
Agreed. You could argue that Reddit is actually overcrowded.
Damn bruh, why wonβt you click on my OF?
This.
Lol just a joke about the annoying "this" comments on Reddit.
Holy shit I completely forgot about those shitty comment metas. Lemmy comment sections are so much nicer
There a ways to remove ads from Reddit and it's much nicer to use, your can still use 3rd party apps like Boost, bots are still a problem.
