Please stop talking about reddit. If you want this to be the next reddit, I beg of you to stop mentioning it. Otherwise all this placewill be is a temporary hold over until we all just fall back on what we know cause we keep hammering in the name into our brain over and over again. I think the same sort of thing happened with the original “black out” of Twitter but we all came back to it because we kept thinking of Twitter in regards to whatever new site we tried. If you want Lemmy to succeed, let Lemmy be Lemmy
I can confirm we are seeing very similar levels of engagement on [email protected] as on /r/android despite significantly smaller subscriber numbers.
Lemmy really does scratch the itch for me. It’s refreshing, even if mod tools aren’t there yet.
