I agree with everyone here on this, Lemmings is appropriate. Especially since most of the community likes it, I think choosing something that the community vibes with is important.

Lol I think over my 11 years on reddit I only had 1.6k karma.. And while I love internet points as much as the next guy it's much healthier not to even see an overall count on here. Makes me hope that they don't add it so I don't have to be constantly worrying about what my overall score is.

Agreed, especially with how new Lemmy is, it just really feels like it needs our engagement to succeed and get more people to join.

This. I usually try to avoid commenting just “This” and try to give more explanation why I’m saying that. Feel like that’s the proper way of doing it.

Yeah after I commented on this post I made one and have been more active within my first 24 hours on Lemmy than I have in my 11 years on Reddit.

Ironically enough, Reddit. I also use Google News on the side but most of the time I’m going to go to Reddit to see the discussion, which is why I kind of am missing that on here.

Hopefully with more users we’ll get more content and be able to replicate that experience!

I think you can just use whichever one you find most convenient, I would wager lemmy.ml would be your best bet as it's the most active instance. The other accounts I think you could just keep as a backup in case the main lemmy.ml instance goes down.

 

I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?

I'm a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It's definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it's great to see something that isn't Reddit growing in popularity!

Although I’m almost exclusively 100% a lurker I will try my best to make posts and post comments and stuff! Hope more folks from Reddit will join us and help make Lemmy a formidable competitor to Reddit.
