Nothing important here. I just want to see how many people are moving away from Reddit.

    How does everyone from Reddit feel about the lemmy experience?

    As of this moment, there are currently:

    • 476 subscribers from lemmy.world
    • 61 subscribers from kbin.social
    • 30 subscribers from lemmy.ml

    It’ll take time, and most importantly content, to entice migration.

      The number of communities are a lot smaller for sure. But the ones I need are here; i.e. Iinux gaming, popos, anime, hentai.

      I know it’s early days, and this wasn’t exactly something that could be planned for, but have you considered whether this community should be on a separate lemmy instance? What I mean is, it looks like the main motivation to reopen r/pop_os is to keep that content publicly available. But it shows the conflict of having that content on a platform that’s not controlled by the Pop project, or its users, or S76. So far I don’t imagine a conflict with the lemmy.world admin, but can that be guaranteed? Is there (at least planned) functionality for a whole community to move from one lemmy instance to another?

        The lemmy.world maintainer has a lot of experience hosting instances for Mastodon, and lemmy.world currently has the best hardware, highest uptime, and now the highest population count compared to other instances.

        What other instance would you recommend?

    Is this a headcount of everyone who were from Rəddıt and moved over here?

    If so, count me in.

    First post here. I’ve had enough of centralized corporate control of my internet life. I remember life on the internet before greed became the prime motivator of all things. I hope there is a future where we can move past it. I’m feeling positive!

    I’m long time Redditor. I don’t like what Reddit admins are doing. I use RIF on mobile. While still not sure if I’m moving here, I’m close to. This place needs work. A bit slow and disorganized. Hope we can help it.

    Boost refugee reporting!!

    I should probably just uninstall Boost from my phone :( I just opened it and seems to be working, but maybe it hasn’t kicked in yet

    There are still some subreddits that I used a lot that [seem like they] haven’t migrated over yet :/ battlestations, intermittentfasting, lostark, oneplus, purdue, my local town, etc. It just sucks a lot since I’m trying to avoid using reddit entirely :(

    Refugee here. Honestly, I can’t believe they didn’t think of making 3rd party apps pay a reasonable fee, while still getting revenue from the official app’s users. It’s like they are trying real hard to make people hate them. And the way they treated Apollo’s creator…yeah, spez can go get fucked.

    11 years on Reddit with the current account and maybe around 2 years before that on my first account. It makes me sad to see what’s happening because I really love the community on the subs I participate in. I’m happy to be here though and to see Lemmy growing.

    Oh yeah…and fuck Spez!

    Around 7 years on reddit. Transitioning out by month’s end – trying on different spaces/interfaces, checking Reddit only a little in the morning to see where my old subs are going/what they’re doing. I was using the official app until this all went down, then I deleted it and switched to Apollo, so once that’s done I’m fully out.

    Only just got here, but liking the vibe so far
