Yeah, a lot of people to seem very open minded about Lemmy. I really hope it sticks through because I absolutely love the redditor community in general. A lot of like-minded techies, that are also in my generation (I’m a early millennial that grew up with late millennials) so a lot of interests and humor are shared :) I definitely agree with it needing to take a little getting used to, I hope more people share that mentality and give it a very fair chance

It seems comfy. I’m skeptical of the UI and UX for the website and the app (even jeroba) but I came from reddit boost which is absolutely a phenomenal experience. I hope this evolves and improves in these ways

Community feels more welcoming. I hope it continues to grow exponentially, because it’ll need it to work!

me too man, me too. such a warming feeling. fuck spez. I think it’s amazing we’re all coming together against this

I look forward to what else the community and developers will do while saying “no”

I do as well. At least the threads I’ve read through, most of the time reddit was pretty good about downvoting the shit out of a comment that has misinformation or the user is being a dbag (racist, sexist, unnecessarily negative, etc) which was one of my favorite things. I could always count on users to call out those types of comments. It made searching for answers and information so easy and also amusing

Sometimes I would run across a comment that just downvoted purely for their opinion, which was one of the problems it had, but in my opinion (10+ years on reddit), it doesn’t seem nearly as often as people claim

To answer the thread: I like it, I use Jeroba for Android but I’m a long time user of reddit boost which I think is way ahead. I’m not a fan of the website yet but I just think it’s a little confusing
