Lemme tell you... Yes the platform and ecosystem are only going to get better.
Lemmy is popular now, I think people will come here. I'm quite satisfied with user engagement but I think squabble has also had good potential but relatively less user engagement.
Yeah, aside from the porn. The lemmy porn scene just isn't here yet. Also lemmy nsfw just moved servers to Ukraine where porn is illegal, so who knows?

For now y’all are stuck with me.
Not to me. As the community is smaller, my exposure is larger. I had no voice on Reddit or any community.
Seems like it is for me, I'm also using snapzu, but I seem to be gravitating towards lemmy more.
It's a tough hole to fill. Lemmy is neat but still has a lot of growth to do.
just throwing my random input in to the pot. still using Reddit via Boost but also checking into Kbin and some of the Lemmy servers as well via the Connect app for Android. I like Lemmy I just miss how Reddit had "everything in one place" if that makes sense.
I think I'm doing something wrong because I feel like I have to make an account for each server or "instance" I visit and that's annoying.
So far it's been a nice experience once I find "subs" and stuff I like there's just some growing pains I guess. idk man, I'm a lil inebriated atm

I like it but there is sparse activity on most of the Android instances. 😟 Lemmy kind of seems like several of ants scurrying around on a big mound right now. Am a big BoostforReddit fan and am hanging out on Jerboa until their Lemmy app is released.
Android instances? All the main instances are interconnected, so you see all the content from all of them (if you filter your feed that way, at least).

Pretty hopeful. I'm in the process of setting up a server to try and host a few communities. Should get it online by the end of the month. I figure if as many people as possible just host a few communities (i.e. cherished Reddit subs that aren't here yet) then we can save the major instances the pain of trying to host everything for everyone and take real advantage of building a truly robust decentralised network
For now this is where I've landed and the community seems to be growing at a steady pace. As long as this place keeps growing and evolving, then I'm here for the long haul.
I tried communites.win and squiggles and some other stuff but they felt like reddit clones. This feels like its own platform and it feels like the future.
I feel fine on it so far, I haven't said too much. I just want a platform where I can go, say things without dealing with as many snarky, bad faith, shitposting users that Reddit seems to endorse having itself contaminated with.
If Lemmy can be the exception, in due time, then I will hail it as a true alternative.
I like it so far, lemmy and mastodon are replacing reddit and twitter for me. Yes, is more quiet and there's less people, but also less bullshit (from users and CEO) and in general a great atmosphere.
The fediverse is great!
I like it a lot and I never really used reddit often.
