I'm an active user who post and comment regularly, and I would say that the experience is very similar to Reddit. Except for less adds and smaller numbers on the main/all page. The experience is probably very different if you're mainly a passive consumer of content.

Though I've never been active in "large" subreddits and I tend to block them from my feed. So guess I don't know what I'm missing.

The main deficiency is niche and hobby communities, they're mostly empty or missing on Lemmy.

This is about right. Its a great general interest thing and you have some really great folks but you don't have a ton of pathfinder people talking about pathfinder or sto people talking about sto on an sto sub, etc. so we have a general gaming community that is pretty active but if you want to know day to day whats happening with a particular game. not so much.

You have ads? Where do you see them? Not sure if I'm being ignorant and not recognizing them or did something right that made me not see them

Ok, I rephrase. Zero ads on Lemmy. 🙂

Some Lemmy phone apps have ads.
