It really feels like Lemmy is alive because of you.

When I first checked out Lemmy, I wasn't expecting there to be so much content, so much discussion, and so much community. But I've spent the better part of two days glued to my screen, browsing content all day. I've seen so many posts, so many interesting discussions about the fediverse, and of course, plenty of memes. It really feels like the start of something incredible.

I've gotta get back to work soon, but wow. I think this whole fediverse thing really is the next step for social media. If I find some extra time, I'll definitely consider contributing to Lemmy's source code to help this project and the FOSS ecosystem grow.

So far I've only used Reddit to look at OSRS updates, because that's where the mods interact with the community and there's the biggest community giving feedback on the updates. Other than that, for general doomscrolling, Lemmy is great. When Lemmy.World has kept up.

Yes I know I can use other instances, no I didn't know that when I created the account and I don't really want to create another don't @ me.
