As someone who has been here for quite some time before the reddit exodus, it is crazy how much this place has improved in such a short time. I used to check lemmy once or maybe twice a day and then I'd go back to reddit. Now with all the new people posting here, lemmy has replaced reddit for me
I joined too early and stopped looking as there was so little content. In fact, when Lemmy started becoming well-known, I forgot I even had an account and made a new one elsewhere. Luckily, my password manager has a better memory!
Now if only my upvotes would go through. Hopefully the patch that was applied to lemmy.world yesterday addresses that. Their instance seems much more stable and responsive now.
I think the whole Fediverse is struggling with Reddit and Twitter sending a lot of new users their way.
It's struggling less than my RiF app though.
