My Initial Impression about Lemmy (lemmy.ml)

I had joined Reddit twice in my lifetime but was not actively using it, and maybe that’s the reason I’m not very familiar with this forum culture.

I would say that Lemmy is by far the most responsive SNS in terms of the community engagement that I’ve ever used.

I sort by new and most posts are not trash as they were on reddit. Things don't need 50k up votes to be valuable. Lemmy as a platform was the perfect blend of old school forms and reddit. Im just sad it took so long that people forgot how the internet is supposed to work.

It's like they get email is User@domain.tld but for anything else they say that's too hard. Hell even when I give my email they just assume Gmail. I swear Web 2.0 was a cancer.
