& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?
I felt that at first but I’ve found the engagement to be more meaningful here when it does happen, even though it’s sometimes sparse or not at all. I came in the previous influx after spez started forcing subs open. I don’t really miss it that much now.
I was pretty much a strict lurker on Reddit, so the smaller community here is certainly a bit of a change for me. Only thing for me to do is to change my habits with it, and start actually joining in and adding to the conversations.
Howdy!
In recognition of your contribution to the community, I present you with the coveted Lemmy Lemon award.
🍋
Please let’s make the Lemmy Lemon award an unofficially official thing. After reading that I want people to use it more
Let’s make it a wheel of cheese. Gotta keep the french happy or they riot 😅
Bruh💀
Bah! Let them have cake. 🍰
🍋
I like this idea! Take your Lemmy Lemon. 🍋
Your enthusiasm for this idea earns you a Lemmy Lemon 🍋 friendo, I like it too
Glad you are here!
Gosh I sure love it here. Everybody is so kind & nice. This is such a better feeling place. I enjoy conversing with everyone so far. Reading these comment sections just makes me feel calm too 🥰
I’ve been here 20 some days now and I still feel this way. Great community on this instance. I mod 4 communities and have yet to take a moderator action against a comment or post. It’s a nice little chill slice of internet.
Thank you! I’m glad to be here!
As a former reddit lurker, I like the more low-key engagement here. It feels more welcoming.
You have summed up my feelings exactly.
Greetings, fellow lurker! The torch has been passed. It is our turns to carry it until the communities grow larger and we can recede back to the shadows
Agree the big thread here are pretty comparable, but are still missing a lot of small subreddit/thread.
I also didn’t even bother engaging on Reddit at all, but doing so on Lemmy feels way more worth it for some reason
I’ve had a genuine thank you from another user, days after I had posted a response here.
I could post on reddit that the sky was blue in response and somehow get turned into a hatemonger that oppressed a flightless subspecies of microwave ovens.
I joined towards the beginning of June and have no intention of going back to reddit. The only exception was to delete everything I had posted there.
I used to save stuff to my own sub reddit, not sure if it’s all long gone now. Did you manage to copy before deleting?

I used power delete suite and made a copy of everything I wanted as it ran.
I must try that - thanks for the info

I’ve only been here for like a day, but I’ve noticed that too. There’s fewer conversations, but what there is is very worthwhile. I haven’t opened a post to see five people trying to get their joke in first, which could sometimes get a bit annoying haha
One thing I certainly don’t miss from Reddit is the top voted comment is always some lame pun or some tired phrase that has been repeated a thousand times before.
Absolutely 100% this! Opening the comments to find endless walls of repeated bad puns is something I’ll never miss.
I honestly feel like there is more engagement here. Most Reddit threads were like telling into the wind. By the time you got there it was almost always too late to contribute
Another thing to consider is that Lemmy is basically early access. Very rough around the edges and one of those ways is federation. Users from other instances might not see your comment, or might not see it immediately. The good news is, it will only get better and more active.
