Thanks! You too! And yes, exactly that! Plus on reddit, it was so over-saturated that anything you needed to say was already said for the most part.

Absolutely, the smaller size is both a blessing and a curse. The shitposing sub reddit is actually funny! But the small communities aren't very active, or don't exist, and that's most of what I engaged with before. There's room to contribute to discussions, and conversion is healthier cause there aren't so many people its impossible to meaningfullly relate to anyone else! But its a bit harder to lurk.

Regardless, I'm excited this exists, and its neat to engage with an online community that feels different from what I'm used to :)

Hope you have a good one!

Yeah, it's hard to find some of the little random communities (that were my lil spaces to contribute), but I'm enjoying the content much more as a whole. It definitely feels like conversations are stuff you can have, even if you see a post like 2 hours later or whatever.

I'm super happy this exists too. I'm still bouncing around with apps, but I'm enjoying myself and it definitely does feel like a better space.

Agreed. I need to try some other of the apps myself, I've just been using jerboa so far
