That’s fine with me, I can’t stand most the people on Reddit
We are our own unique ecosystem. It’s fine as is.
Exactly. I love how there is actual discourse here rather than petty bickering and useful discussions are happening on here that I didn’t encounter on reddit
Its really cool to see username@instance1 and username@instance2 on community instance3. It means Activityhub is doing its job and making us truly federated.
What’s the piefed experience like, out of interest? I haven’t tried it yet.
Its been pretty good. Lemmy has more momentum…but that doesn’t really mean much when you can just subscribe to different instances all over the place.
It has quite a few UI templates. So you can further customize your experience. Its initial setup is MUCH nicer than lemmy. It has starter pack kinda deals. Theres a lot of other cool features like reposts show all comments from both postings. I also self hosted my own for a tiny bit, but I like the default piefed.social website the most. It is much more stable haha.
Plus Piefed can hook into other ActivityHub providers like peertube, mastodon, etc…without any real issues. Its a bit better than lemmy in that it utilizes the nature of the fediverse a bit more. Dont get me wrong, there both very solid projects. But as a layman, Im really enjoying piefed.
Thanks, that’s very interesting, I will experiment some time. I found kbin utilized the fediverse more than lemmy as well, but it mostly died off.
I hope it continues as Lemmy gets bigger, but I’m kind of doubtful it won’t eventually decay in the same way as reddit. At least, I don’t see anything inherently different that would avoid that. Perhaps the federation and moderation structure might help, but that doesn’t seem certain yet…
These discussions would happen on reddit too if shit wasn’t censored, botted or otherwise suppressed for whatever shill op needs to be front and center
Whatever boomer!
Pretty much. I still occasionally have to go to reddit for some random questions, and the difference in tone is often rather jarring.
My experience with people on Reddit was better than the one with people on Lemmy, but i am probably an exception considering the amount of people saying Lemmy is much better than Reddit
As long as you block Lemmy.ml and hexbear.net it’s much better to be honest, I don’t really like blocking an entire group of people like that but it really does help
My instance hides most political communities unless you are subscribed to them so people saying that Russia and China are amazing is not a problem; i see people complaining about lemmy.ml way more
