after seeing /u/spez doubling down on the API changes, i went ahead and deleted my 10 year old reddit accounts posts and comments.
also literally made this account as well, but i'm 100% done with reddit.
How are you liking Lemmy? I'd consider myself an advanced hobbyist, technologically literate but it is a bit confusing. The Wiki seems pretty out of date too if I'm honest.
so far, the UI and everything makes sense. the mobile app i'm using as well, Mlem for iOS, is VERY nice.
if i lived in a perfect world and had more time to set things up, i would of selfhosted my own Lemmy instance. however, i went ahead and found lemmy.world (i happen to also be on mastdon.world as well), and created an account there.
but yeah, so far so good! i feel like i'm on a SMF/phpBB forum a little, which IMHO makes me feel right at home. over time, more communities will be made and more people will join them, thus creating more content to read.
