I like it a lot. It still needs much more pull, which can only be achieved with more content and more name recognition. To that end I'm thankful for all the active users posting content here.
Another thing I notice is that it's a bit harder to get started with Lemmy for casual users than it is with Reddit - purely due to the federated nature. I think that Lemmy could gain significant ground if there were apps that made using Lemmy stupid simple and hid away the federated, decentralized nature when signing up for the service.
