I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.
Had to block reddit for a bit and replace my shortcuts to reddit with lemmy, but now I find myself enjoying my time on lemmy a lot more than on reddit. I don’t know if I will ever stop using reddit due to the amount of old information over that is still very useful and because it’s where most of my viewers come from, but only time will tell I guess.
I have a feeling alot of the old information over there may be unreliable with all of these people nuking their reddit accounts.
I’ve seen some people working on transferring some of reddits posts, comments and upvotes over to lemmy which is super interesting
That would be amazing ngl. I’m trying to post my backlog of reddit posts here on lemmy bit by bit so as to not spam too much, but I will have to keep my eye open for some organized efforts on porting stuff over here.
