Just let things die is my opinion. It’s much nicer here.
Nicer in many ways but also less active. I find myself posting a shit ton more just to make the activity I want to see. I made probably less than 50 posts on Reddit in my 11ish years before I left. Now I make that many every 48 hours
Same.
I'm not a huge fan of lemmy, but I do like it better than what Reddit has become. If I had to pick today's lemmy or Reddit from 5-ish years ago, I'd go with Reddit every time. But that's not the options in front of me, so I stick with lemmy.
I also post a lot, probably too much, because I want to see more content, especially higher effort content. I posted pretty rarely on Reddit, so this is certainly more exhausting to use. However, there's enough people to make it worthwhile, so I'm still giving it the old college try.
Yea, I just wish more niche communities would come to Lemmy, but most of the interesting ones are actively not tech savvy en mass, and so are lucky to figure out reddit I guess. Or Discord maybe, which sucks as a reddit replacement.
Yeah, Discord is the worst for something where history is useful. It's pretty decent for chat though, but that's about it. But even then, I'd rather use Matrix.
