I found out about it because of a hacker news comment discussing the Reddit drama. I’m pretty upset that I didn’t discover it on Reddit. I assume any mention of Lemmy was marked as spam or was I just not browsing the right communities?

    Came here after leaving Reddit and looking for alternatives. Happy to be here and I’m never going back.

      Honestly, when I first came here, I entirely expected that Reddit would eventually cave and I’d return to it. I expected the Fediverse to fail. But instead Reddit has doubled down and the Fediverse has rapidly gotten considerably better. I’m intending to stay here.

      Though admittedly I do worry about some smaller subs. Eg, my local city sub was fairly active on Reddit and was a great place to get local recommendations, learn about stuff going on, etc. I ended up making the community myself (@[email protected]), but there’s yet to be any other subscribers (though this does remind me to go post about it in subs for the province).
