Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let’s do this! 🤝

    Hopefully we can help create new communities on Lemmy. Nothing will truly replace Reddit but new groups will be created and over time they will become great.

      everything will be replaced eventually in time but whether lemmy will replace reddit (in this case) is the question.

        I don’t think Lemmy will replace Reddit, just like Mastodon didn’t replace Twitter. But I think we can build them into great alternatives for people who want to avoid using the big corporate originals (like me).

          I personally don’t want lemmy to end up as a reddit replacement. I’m scared the discussions will get worse like it did in reddit. Nowadays, people in lemmy actually discuss with you and not downvote-bomb or make a snarky comment for karma. I do hope we grow, though.

            I’m a new convert to Lemmy. It feels a lot like old reddit before it hit the mainstream and the digg exodus. I hope it stays like this.

            Yeah, the discourse on Reddit hasn’t been good in years and years. Normies using it was good for numbers, but the content suffered greatly. I like reading sentences that have at least a semblance of structure.
