Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I find myself reading my Kindle more. Although I do miss out on finding out news that's currently happening, e.g I didn't realize Twitter rebranded to X and I don't really go on Twitter as much was something pretty surprising.
I also found Lemmy to be much slower in terms of posts and engagement so it's hard to find meaningful discussions or funny comments that I usually like to find on posts about what's currently new.
I've never posted on Reddit at all and was a lurker for almost 10 years so I feel like writing and commenting on Lemmy to contribute. Although a part of me refuses to bring back the golden years of Reddit in Lemmy. Maybe the death of Reddit third party apps was just what I needed to enjoy the current moment and try other new hobbies.
