Been a rocky road for me, more than a year ago I created a lemm.ee account, even used that for a few weeks later, but got a bit bored because I felt there was not enough diversity in here. And then lemm.ee was taken down. Kind of a double whammy.
Yesterday someone in reddit brought up a discussion how signing up and using lemmy should be simplified, they had a link, clicked it and simply registered a new account there without even checking what instance it was (I simply can’t be bothered to do the research again), so I ended up with a thelemmy.club account.
Then someone promoted piefed.social, said its easy, so I created an account for that too, so here I am.
Then I found out piefed.social has a philosophy to not show downvotes or upvote downvote percentages, I kind of like checking downvotes too, I mean its not youtube (yes, shots fired) so I tried to get out of that quite quickly. Luckily phtn.app supports piefed.social and looks nice, while on phone I already had Summit installed from lemm.ee times and that supports piefed.social too, even though its not a lemmy system or what you call it.
Right now I’m working through these 300 subscriptions that piefed suggested me, unsubscribing from some i don’t like, then i’ll probably read feed for All for a while to discover new communities.
Let’s see how long I last on this fediverse thing this time.
I also have mastodon on my phone, but I was never into instagram / twitter etc, so im not very into that too and its kind of a ghost town. Same goes for pixelfed.
I also have a Loops account (even though I’ve never used tiktok either), thats starting to look better, but still needs more people, I think.
Easy access, mainstream app that is good, word of mouth. Master all 3 and Lemmy will be a great rival to Reddit.
I been feeling that Lemmy is quite active as of late. Nice to be here. I dropped scrolling Reddit at work and since recent, trying to stay in Lemmy on my phone too.
Just use lemmy.world and another server more locally from your own country or smthing, a local lemmy server, and mastodon.social for a twitter and instagram alternative
