Trying!

I agree- but, I really wish some of these bugs were ironed out.

If, I was not getting random errors popping up every few minutes, and tons of latency, I would be much more willing to start putting a lot more content here.

Also, still learning how the federated communities works...

👀 if we just make content about saying that we should make content does it count as actual content?

Don't tell me what to do!

If you post it, I will comment.

I've already been enjoying posting to Lemmy/etc much more than I ever did Reddit.

Reddit always felt so set-in-stone and unchanging to the point that it made me feel like I arrived "late" to the party even though my first Reddit account was in I think 2015. Once somebody claimed a subreddit with an easy-to-remember name that was largely it, and if you disagreed with their moderating style you had to suck it up or make your own with a more obtuse name.

With Lemmy since everything's decentralized it feels much more... I guess open? If someone makes a !gamedev community that has iffy moderation issues or whatnot, I or someone else can also make a !gamedev comm on another instance without it being a problem at all.

100%. We're showing Reddit right now the power of community.

Did you guys keep your Reddit name to be recognizable or did you make a new one to start over??

I'll try my best to post, however, on reddit, I was usually a lurker who never ever posted. Only commented. (Sometimes)

I think I saw some thread requesting ideas for new communities. I just can't find it again, but it's a great idea.

Less experienced users could just comment what they need and more experienced users could create the communities for the most upvoted ideas and thereby having a userbase from the beginning.
