This is also my first post, feel like crying. Heard about Lenny 3 hours ago, came to this instance after consideration.
I'm glad this was made as an Alternative to the R#&dit
Legit, it's better here despite the rough edges of an early stage of development. The very thing that makes there be a learning curve filters out the most annoying users, and the culture is fairly anti-asshole overall, so there's less toxicity overall. Not saying it's perfect, no human endeavor can be. But it's got the better aspects of reddit with a reduction in the worst parts.
It's getting better fast, the 0.18.1 Lemmy update coming up is going to be a huge improvement for desktop browser (I'm on an instance running the release candidate and it's brilliant). That should trickle down to better mobile performance as well.
