I'm a long time reddit user.. I should say I'm quite hooked. But lemmy feels a lot quiet. My primary interests are electronics, embedded programming, piracy ๐Ÿ˜ and selfhosting. Apart from the last community the others are quite deserted.

I'v been on and off since past 1 1/2 years. No change..

On the other hand Mastodon is going well. And I nurture the interactions there. Lemmy could be the same. I too feel Reddit is kinda on-to-your face and aggressive.

Eh, mastodon is more like a twitter/instagram type thing, and thlse are both way bigger than reddit. So it's natural that mastodon will have a lot more activity than lemmy.

But reddit is completely owned by the corporate elite, turns out u/maxwellhill was ghislaine maxwell, like it's pretty bad how much reddit is in bed with evil powerful people.

So for that reason I've stopped using it.

And of course yes, I would love to see more activity on lemmy!
