Like a lot of the new users here I too am a former Redditor. I was on Reddit for 15 years, it was my main source of news and information. I didn’t agree with many of the changes to reddit but kept on, till recently when I learned the app I’d been using “Infinity” would no longer work, I guess that was the final straw, but as the title suggests I’m glad. I started looking for other sources of information and entertainment which led to lemmy and the fediverse. I also found other content creators on platforms like patreon, substack, discord, mastodon,that I may not have found otherwise if I was still on Reddit. Just felt like sharing, thank you for reading this, hope you all have a wonderful day.
Unfortunately there’s still two small communities that have no presence on Lemmy for me, so I still occasionally visit reddit - but only in read only mode!
So re-create them here.
That’s what I did, but the community is too niche to have any activity on Lemmy. A LOT of niche community users are in the same scenario.
You have to invite them to the dark side… “We have cookies!”
