& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?

Yeah this seems to be the way to go. Sub to all communities of a topic you're interested in. Then after you find out which ones end up the most popular, unsub from the ones without much activity.

In ways, it's really not all that different from Reddit. There were lots of essentially "duplicate" subreddits, but the most popular ones win out and gain traction.

And we’re still in the beginning stages here. As time goes on, the larger communities will become de-facto ‘winners’ as more and more people subscribe to those.

And I'm sure smaller ones will do alright too as not everyone will like the culture/curation of the larger ones.
