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.

    I really hate to say it but I feel the same. The first 1-3 days of the blackout were amazing. Every response was a thoughtful paragraph. Then it suddenly grew exponentially, was overtaken with shitty memes and stupid horsebeaten jokes in every comment section. The fall of Lemmy was like the fall of reddit but in 7 days instead of 7 years. I really hope it was a temporary adjustment and the userbase evens out and the community management/search tools improve.
