More and more of these communities are going to see the grass is actually greener on the other side once they’ve had enough of Reddits nonsense.

When Apollo lost access I thought “I’ll try out lemmy” and I’ve been so happy with the change of mix of posts that I’m much happier here.

Feels like when I started using Reddit a decade ago, in a good way. Reddit shifted subtly enough that I didn’t even realize how little I was enjoying the content.

I wonder how many other people would have been relatively happy moderating communities, posting content and comments, had Reddit just not been evil.

I agree 100%. I tried Lemmy and Mastodon not very long ago out of curiosity and now I'm in the process of deleting my other social accounts. I didn't realize how little I actually engaged with Reddit and Twitter until I started doing so here.

Same experience. Jumped when Apollo stopped working and haven’t looked back

I can't believe it's taking them this long.

It's not really, most of the good ones are here already and some are here and finishing up on the other site.
