Lemmy is more polished and populated now than before. Hope influx stays and we got all the real people from reddit and bots stay there.

Reddit refugee here. Can I say Luigi?

And we love you for it❤️

Yeah in a few days I'm going to delete my Reddit account, liking this place so far, you get news and genuine discussion.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 hours ago

Please keep it, it can be useful to promote Lemmy a bit, like we do on [email protected]

Glad that you like it here!

I'll just say, the more I hang around Lemmy, the more I enjoy the genuine conversations. It feels like less snark, less joke replies, and just a generally more community-type feeling. Reminds me of when I first tried Reddit after leaving Digg way back when.

Hopefully, us exiles can leave the Reddit back at Reddit.

I feel the exact same, and I’ve been hanging around here for almost two years (the great 3rd party app exodus of ‘23).

This place feels more like a community filled with people versus a firehose of internet wrapped in layers of corporate and right wing BS.

Reddit was almost exclusively read-only for me. Here, I am commenting all the time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

This is one of the reasons I stayed. It was still small enough back then that you actually started to recognize people you had conversations with, and not just the troll farms.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I find a bunch of snark here, but it absolutely feels more genuine. With reddit it felt like half the comments I saw were from bots. More than half, maybe.

I hate everyone on lemmy but at least I'm hating people

[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 hours ago

You know it's bad for Reddit when people were even talking about going back to Digg

MAU? Mostly Anal Users? Martian Appalachian Upholstery? Mass Ass Underwear? Missing Alligator Utensils? Moldy Apple Uterus? Massive Arctic Uranus?

Monthly Average Users

as opposed to DAU (Daily) or WAU (Weekly)

For a live product, the number of average users / time is a pretty telling metric.

I wonder what the arc will look like this time.

I'm in this picture and I like it!

Woo! That's awesome. I am seeing quite a few more people.

We are already successful, I'm seeing stories, news articles, and videos that normally would never get pushed to the top. We can actually talk about things without overwhelming censorship, strange algorithms, or ads.

Wow. And we’re almost at the halfway point of the month. I wonder if we’ll reach 100k at eom.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 hours ago

People are finally done with reddit's shit! Thank God and welcome

To anyone new wondering about phone apps for Lemmy, I use "Thunder" and it works great.

Also, feel free to say Luigi without getting banned.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 minutes ago

I personally prefer Raccoon at the moment, but the gestures are starting to wear on me, so I might be switching back to Thunder. Honestly, can't remember why I left it. I'm a persnickety bitch about apps sometimes lol
