Still trying to find my footings. The thing I miss most is active engagement. The comment sections sometimes feel so empty. But I will give it time. All in all, I find the experience better than I anticipated. Using wefwef on my phone and the instance-site on my desktop and laptop. I am sure a decent app will be developed in time.
I felt that at first but I've found the engagement to be more meaningful here when it does happen, even though it's sometimes sparse or not at all. I came in the previous influx after spez started forcing subs open. I don't really miss it that much now.
I also didn't even bother engaging on Reddit at all, but doing so on Lemmy feels way more worth it for some reason
I've had a genuine thank you from another user, days after I had posted a response here.
I could post on reddit that the sky was blue in response and somehow get turned into a hatemonger that oppressed a flightless subspecies of microwave ovens.
I joined towards the beginning of June and have no intention of going back to reddit. The only exception was to delete everything I had posted there.
I used to save stuff to my own sub reddit, not sure if it's all long gone now. Did you manage to copy before deleting?
I used power delete suite and made a copy of everything I wanted as it ran.
I must try that - thanks for the info
I’ve only been here for like a day, but I’ve noticed that too. There’s fewer conversations, but what there is is very worthwhile. I haven’t opened a post to see five people trying to get their joke in first, which could sometimes get a bit annoying haha
