I like the community. I'm hoping that Lemmy doesn't turn into the cesspool that parts of Reddit became. I do have to refresh the page to see my posts and comments, but I imagine that there are some functional difficulties with scaling the platform to accommodate all of the people coming from Reddit.

As someone who always felt very overshadowed on Reddit, I'm looking forward to contributing more here.

Identity theft is not a joke, Jim!

I've noticed this as well, where I can't listen to something with words (podcast, someone talking, TV show, etc) while doing a crossword or other word puzzle. I never really broke it down to realize that it's likely because the part of my brain that processes language is completely incapable of multitasking.

I also have to avoid music with words while working; I'll end up typing out the lyrics to the song instead of the email response to a user that I'm supposed to be composing.

From what I'm seeing, Lemmy and the Fediverse are going to fill my social needs quite nicely, so I'm not sure if I'll ever make it back to Reddit.
