Just checking the vibe. I see that this community doesn’t have much activity, but maybe people are interested in migrating here amidst the reddit controversy.

    yep! the only thing i used reddit for (other than funny pictures, which we could all realistically do without) was tech support and discussing linux-related topics. And it seems, at least for now, the userbase swings pretty heavily towards tech savvy people so I’m sure this place will be great :)

    I migrated fully from reddit. Deleted my comments and account. This will be my replacement for r/archlinux

    I’m a Redditor immigrant. I think Lemmy is a much better fit for the Arch community, and have had this transition on my mind since the Twitter buyout. I’m hoping this push will bring enough of us over that it sticks.

    This is likely my new home for all random things archlinux. Thank you for establishing it.

    Yep! I’m going to hand my subreddits over to others in their respective communities, and possibly delete my account after that.

    I have high hopes for Lemmy.

    I can’t even remember if I subscribed to r/archlinux over there, I’ve eradicated my account now so it doesn’t really matter. The important bits are (1) I’m an Arch user, amd64 and arm7hf mainly. (2) I’m subbed to this community. May it live long and prosper!

    I started using Lemmy last week and for a couple days it was slow (in terms of activity). But especially after Monday, activity is REALLY starting to pick up. I have high hopes for Lemmy and hope not to go back to Reddit.

    I also deleted RedReader (Reddit APP) and just subscribed to a few groups here in the Fediverse

      Funny given how the app developer is trying to port it to support lemmy as well.

    Planning on it for the most part, likely to use in conjunction with reddit if they reverse API decisions though.

    I have just subscribed to as many Lemmy equivalents to my subreddits as I could find. I plan to make Lemmy a permanent part of my browsing. Already contemplating on whether I should delete my Reddit account but I am still waiting out the situation to see what happens. What /u/spez has said doesn’t give me much hope though. I do hope Lemmy takes off. The limited browsing I’ve done on Lemmy has already convinced me that its a better experience than Reddit from a UI / UX perspective.

    I just joined recently and I’m really enjoying lemmy so far. It’s great not having an algorithm trying to guess what I want to view all the time and it’s just nice having the power to search for topics that I actually want to discuss.
