Been on Reddit since 2010. I'm hoping that Lemmy and other Fediverse apps sort of grow out of the meta-talk and comparisons to their centralized counterparts.
Otherwise, the communities themselves seem pleasant (or swiftly defederated from by the good ones). We don't quite the critical mass to get active niche communities, or hyper-specialized ones yet, which I kind of miss. Stuff like "here's a subreddit for each of these very specific habits that cats can have", or "talk about a particular species of parrot", y'know?
