Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I'm just curious to know how y'all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

I'm liking it so far. But given this is a federated replacement of Reddit, how does replication of communities work? Cuz there are multiple Technology or World News communities in different instances. Which one do we follow?

I really like it and use it every day. I still use old.reddit.com a bit but I like Lemmy and Kbin more.

I don't think I'm on my phone as much but I do miss /r/BlackPeopleTwitter. I bet the posts about the Montgomery Brawl we're top notch.

Sync user so it looks and basically feels the same. Just the volume of posts is missing. My other issue is I used a lot of smaller communities and they haven't migrated.... Yet. So it's hard to get answers to things without going back to the /r which I try to avoid.

Successful! A full reddit replacement!

The cons is the Sync app (or maybe it's deeper), comments seem to be under the wrong parent threads?

To be fair it's still in beta and that's a known issue, so hopefully it'll be fixed soon.

Pretty good. haven't even been to reddit after I switched!

As I explained to someone, you could say it’s not exactly a cheap date here although it’s one I’m still sitting through, naturally.
