Welcome to the fediverse!
First time posting after 9 solid years on Reddit. Thanks for the welcome
I am here now. Just signed up. Mod of /r/bicycling, /r/sanfrancisco, and a few other smaller subs. The whole thing is a mess right now, so I wanted to see if there are greener pastures here. Any tips are welcome. I literally have no idea what I’m doing.
I’ve been here a week or two now. It’s going better than Voat did for me when I last tried to leave Reddit. That was full of alt-right crazies basically, but so far here, people have been lovely.
This seems like the first thing with enough critical mass to get going, what with reddit and twitter sulimultaneously imploding faster than a poorly constructed submersible craft. It’s not driven by political outrage so much as the old platforms making themselves unusable and forcing healthy users off their platforms.
So far so good.
So true. Twitter is imploding do fast. Reddit a bit slower

My goodness me. This place rocks. Like the way the internet used to be. Fuck corporate greed. Fuck ads. Fuck egocentric dictatorships. And hello to The Future.
I wasn’t thrilled at the idea of leaving Reddit after 14 years but some things cannot be avoided. My first post here on Lemmy. Thank you for the warm welcome!

Things seem to be better here anyways. Being able to interact with people across different platforms (I’m replying to your comment through Mastodon because it works and it’s cool 😎) really does make it feel like “the world of tomorrow” to me
Thanks, so far Lemmy is looking like an interesting place with good vibes all round!
So far. Once it becomes completely mainstream, all the bad people will come in as well, imo. It do be like that with every community, sadly.
When that happens its time to migrate again
That’s exactly how I feel!

This atmosphere has good vibe. Goodbye RIF, hello Lemmy 👋
Closed Reddit account and embarking on this new adventure with lemmy.
When will we get our own persistently-broken video player? That’s super important for my quality use experience.
Don’t forget an absolute garbage search that is never improved!
Also need NFT collectable avatars, can’t forget those!
Wait… Where am I? I’m getting withdrawal symptoms. 11 years wandering the Reddit… I’m lost, a little confused, possibly afraid.
Hey, hello community this is my first comment on Lemmy, good to see you all.

Welcome!
Hiii im here from reddit but, when i tried to post the post has been being uploaded for the past 2 hours, also loading communities and upvoting has been EXTREMELY slow ;'D
btw this is a hella cool site
Yeah looks like lemmy.world is slow today. Not surprised due to the influx of users. Ruud and the team has been working on it diligently the last couple of weeks, expanding hardware, writing code, fixing bugs, etc. Please be patient as we grow!
I cleared my cache and it helped mine. If you havnt done so in awhile it could help.
Oki, I hope everything goes smooth for the team, good luck!!
Then maybe stop passing this off as an alternative? For people whining about the UX of the new reddit app, this is also garbage.

So instances = subs but you have to sign up for each one?
Naw, an instance is a server that can host content, but it’s connected to every other instance that agrees to federate with each other. You can think of it as an email address, Gmail and Yahoo have their own features but can communicate with each other no problem.
Really hope this takes off and remains open and non-commercial.

I’m going to build my own Reddit, with blackjack and hookers!
Add in Whiskey and you’ll have the perfect trifecta of vice!
Welcome! Where do I sign up?
One of our Futurama mods @Alchemy had you covered !whiskey@lemmy.world
Aww! It’s Lemmy.world so I’m already signed up.
Redditor here. Feeling a little lost and confused. :)
