Lemmy fires just the right synapses… at least for me. Reddit was becomming more like “scroll, scroll scroll, oh here’s something interesting… no, it’s not that interesting… scroll, scroll, scroll”.
It’s not as good, but it’s still a lot better than I expected it to be before I joined. Once it has 5-10x the current userbase I think it’ll be just as good.
One of my favorite things on reddit was being able to click on an interesting post, then just read dozens and dozens of other peoples’ comments. I find that like 70% of the posts I find interesting here have like 0-3 comments.
There are some growing pains too - for example, I wrote this reply up, then upvoted you, and upvoting you deleted my message so I had to retype it.
Is the Lemmy high just as good? Or is it the Reddit methadone?
