I’m a long time reddit user… I should say I’m quite hooked. But lemmy feels a lot quiet. My primary interests are electronics, embedded programming, piracy 😏 and selfhosting. Apart from the last community the others are quite deserted.
I’v been on and off since past 1 1/2 years. No change…
On the other hand Mastodon is going well. And I nurture the interactions there. Lemmy could be the same. I too feel Reddit is kinda on-to-your face and aggressive.
Eh, mastodon is more like a twitter/instagram type thing, and thlse are both way bigger than reddit. So it’s natural that mastodon will have a lot more activity than lemmy.
But reddit is completely owned by the corporate elite, turns out u/maxwellhill was ghislaine maxwell, like it’s pretty bad how much reddit is in bed with evil powerful people.
So for that reason I’ve stopped using it.
yeah that comparison makes sense
And of course yes, I would love to see more activity on lemmy!
