I find all to be rather good, and donβt miss r/all that much. There are much less news which I miss. And then there are the niche communities that donβt really exist. Iβm very hopeful though!

Iβm really enjoying it and feel like itβs easier to reply here than in Reddit. I love seeing how fast itβs growing as well. People also seem nicer here - it feels less toxic.
Less active just due to lower user population but great vibe nonetheless.
Loving in, and it gets better every day
I think just like most people's experiences. It does what I need it to. We just need people and participation.
Lemmy is life, Lemmy is love.
I'd like to be able to group multiple subs into a mult-iLemmy that I can save to refer to. e.g I have multiple gaming subs I'd like to group into a single browsable page titled "games". Any way to do multi-subs?
I see a lot of reposted content or no content changes because of lack of user activity unfortunately.
That's driving me to use my phone less though so that's a plus.
I'm waiting to see when things go back to normal in a sense of just regular content and not reddit migration stuff, so far it's not much different, let's see how it goes.
I like Lemmy for inheriting all of Reddit's positive traits. Tough moderation, bots in the comments, stupid upvote/downvote hells, and many other virtues. I remember how it all started and all the sweet utopian tales of those who shouted "f*ck u/spez" on every corner. You can delete your Reddit account, but you can't delete Reddit from your head.
Just fine. Spent last week editing all my comments with PDS. On Monday, I deleted my account and I'm only here so far.
Social media in general has been shit. Not that they ever were very good, but it seems to be worse.
Been here about 3 weeks and every day it's feeling more like home.
I won't be going back to reddit.
so so - I like that I can post from Mastodon. It feels incomplete yet intriguing.
Just happy to be here.
It's cool. I've been on mastodon before this, so I get the whole "looking around to find communities" thing. Lemmy seems to make it easier to find popular communities than Masto though, so that's nice.
But... After reddit fell, I took it as a sign that I need to get off the social media wagon wheel. I was spending almost every waking minute on reddit or twitching to get on it. I hope it doesn't get like that with Lemmy, though I fully expect it to.
I haven't had to adjust to much. It's pretty much the same as before, in terms of how everything works at a basic level. I'm liking the different sorting options, more. New Comments is exactly what I like to see.
Took me a while to find a client i liked (wefwef) and understand how subscriptions with the fediverse works, but now that i do, it's a pretty awesome experience.
In donating monthly to the Mastadon.world Patreon and I couldn't be happier to be doing it.
Im enjoying it so far, i think ive figured most of it out, got myself on a nice smaller local instance and everything is loading properly, and im consuming the information.
