Lemmy has been around for 4 years compared to Reddit's 18. Compare Lemmy's current state to 2009 Reddit for a somewhat more accurate look.

I joined Reddit in 2011 and Lemmy has a lot of the same feel and the same problems, but is already way ahead of where Reddit was back then. It has me very excited for the future of the internet for the first time in a long while.
