Being mostly a lurker it's going to depend mostly by the content.

But that's what I'm starting to like about Lemmy. Being in my 40s i've had my share of newsgroups, bulletin boards, forums,... And at the end Reddit.

A big plus is/was that nearly anything you can think of is on Reddit. But that's also the downside of it. You just don't know where to start sometimes.

That's great about Lemmy. You have instances where you can start and that can have a focus on specific topics. A tech instance, a science instance, a country instance,... You can just open the community lust there and see straight away what they have to offer.

It's like it's a mix of the old newsgroups with forums with Reddit.... I love it.

Same for me. It reminds me of what I used to love about the internet.
