This is my ~/
Arch Linux
The beloved lightweight distro
yep! the only thing i used reddit for (other than funny pictures, which we could all realistically do without) was tech support and discussing linux-related topics. And it seems, at least for now, the userbase swings pretty heavily towards tech savvy people so I'm sure this place will be great :)
I'm a Redditor immigrant. I think Lemmy is a much better fit for the Arch community, and have had this transition on my mind since the Twitter buyout. I'm hoping this push will bring enough of us over that it sticks.
I migrated fully from reddit. Deleted my comments and account. This will be my replacement for r/archlinux
This is likely my new home for all random things archlinux. Thank you for establishing it.
Im sticking with the fediverse.
Yep! I'm going to hand my subreddits over to others in their respective communities, and possibly delete my account after that.
I have high hopes for Lemmy.
I started using Lemmy last week and for a couple days it was slow (in terms of activity). But especially after Monday, activity is REALLY starting to pick up. I have high hopes for Lemmy and hope not to go back to Reddit.
I can't even remember if I subscribed to r/archlinux over there, I've eradicated my account now so it doesn't really matter. The important bits are (1) I'm an Arch user, amd64 and arm7hf mainly. (2) I'm subbed to this community. May it live long and prosper!
Planning on it for the most part, likely to use in conjunction with reddit if they reverse API decisions though.
I have just subscribed to as many Lemmy equivalents to my subreddits as I could find. I plan to make Lemmy a permanent part of my browsing. Already contemplating on whether I should delete my Reddit account but I am still waiting out the situation to see what happens. What /u/spez has said doesn't give me much hope though. I do hope Lemmy takes off. The limited browsing I've done on Lemmy has already convinced me that its a better experience than Reddit from a UI / UX perspective.
I also deleted RedReader (Reddit APP) and just subscribed to a few groups here in the Fediverse
Funny given how the app developer is trying to port it to support lemmy as well.
I just joined recently and I'm really enjoying lemmy so far. It's great not having an algorithm trying to guess what I want to view all the time and it's just nice having the power to search for topics that I actually want to discuss.
I'm down for seeing where this trip takes us. If nothing else it's an opportunity to meet new folks.
I just made an account today, planning on deleting reddit soon
Absolutely!
Let's see if this works out. 😺
It's just that .ml is down currently. So a bit hard to tell how this keeps working. Buuut nice to see you.
Yeah, I'm here for the foreseeable future.. my rif app is gone, and I don't think I'll reinstallinstall it, just like when twitter became fedilab (I'm on linuxrocks.online over there), rif is now jerboa. And I'm going deeper into the fediverse.
And I'll admit... Since I joined both apps have been growing on me quite fast
I've been feeling a bit done with reddit for a while now. This is the first time I see such a viable alternative! I really think if things like this pick up traction the internet will get better for once.
Definitely, ditched my Reddit account. I was already unhappy with Reddit for some time, so while others are mad about the API changes, for me it's the best that could happen because it made me discover Lemmy.
I certainly came here via the controversy. Glad to have found Lemmy, really.
I'm definitely planning on staying on Lemmy. I currently use the Lemmy.world instance which has been really stable for me. I think when Lemmy becomes "dead simple" for normies to use you'll see more and more people using it.
It's going to take a little time and maturing of the software but I think the fediverse had a bright future.
I'm planning on staying here I think
Me.
I am really tired of Reddit. Unfortunately, Reddit's user don't care about the API decisions. Screw Reddit.
