It's going well! One thing I've really liked so far is the "tight-knit group" sort of feeling. Not really sure the best way to explain it, but it's like the difference between working at a place where there are only 9 other employees, versus working at a corporation. It feels like you truly have the chance to be a part of something awesome, rather than just being a drop in the bucket.
I think most people that have joined up on Lemmy are sort of like minded anyway, so that probably helps with the feeling of community
oh for sure, especially in like the way smaller instances in fediverse projects, theres instances of akkoma where it doesnt feel like a social media site (which an instances is technically is) but more like a groupchat/blog thing (in the style of internet way back in the day) where getting familiar with the others is easy as hell and almost natural, wholesome 101
