I joined the fediverse during the reddit API disaster and so far I've been enjoying it more than most of Reddit

There's no substitute for my local subreddit, or some of my hobby ones. But my favorite mod got usurped during the protest and it all went to shit after, so I miss it but I don't feel the need to go back.

Making and sharing start trek memes here has gotten me through some shit.

Lemmy feels like old Reddit, with actual useful information and conversation. I'm definitely enjoying it more so far, but I do miss the sheer volume of Reddit, and also some of the silliness

Welcome to lemmy!

I agree, I think because there are fewer people the community vibes are stronger.

There are plenty of silly communities if you can find them. I like tenforward and dullsters (formerly dull men’s club). The historic memes subs are surprisingly popular, programming humour gets a lot of engagement too. There are trek and LoTR memes, and a lot of webcomics get posted (but don’t have the creator community of reddit).

As long as the silliness is in good taste, I say be the change you want to see and people will follow.

Honestly I think the worst part about Lemmy right now is that it's still wayy too loud about hating Reddit. It kinda feels like it exists just for the sake of not being Reddit instead of actually being its own platform
