As of right now, I’m using Lemmy and just getting the feel for it. I think once some of the other larger 3rd party apps start getting released for Lemmy (Sync, Boost, etc.), it’ll drive more people to creating an account and creating more communities. When compared to reddit, it’s quite dead at the moment, but that can change once people start creating communities and participating. Time will tell if this is the “next reddit” or just the transitional phase.
