Reddit is still a lot more crowded, but I prefer Lemmy simply because of no ads and the actual conversations that you can have with people.

This is exactly how I feel. Reddit is so full of bots, spam, and ads that it's really only good for checking a few niche subreddits. I can browse Lemmy at random and be pretty entertained.

Reddit comment is just bot paradise, once i realise bot just do repost and copy/paste comment, the value and urge of adding my own comment just immensely decrease.

Agreed. You could argue that Reddit is actually overcrowded.

This.

Lol just a joke about the annoying "this" comments on Reddit.

Holy shit I completely forgot about those shitty comment metas. Lemmy comment sections are so much nicer

There a ways to remove ads from Reddit and it's much nicer to use, your can still use 3rd party apps like Boost, bots are still a problem.
