Lemmy

“And it is federated so when the biggest Lemmy instance starts to suck, Lemmy can be the Lemmy replacement, too.”

“I love the brutalist efficiency of Old Reddit, and see the same in Lemmy.”

“doesn't do any of these gamblification, gamification, psychological attacks, and more”

“It fills the void for me, and there's no algorithm to monetize or incentive for advertising.”

“There's some amount of old internet feeling there, you don't get exhausted by the amount of material and it's not overrun by corporations.”

“Most people just upload images directly into their instance when creating posts.”

“it attracts the activists and "power users" that have ruined reddit in the first place”

“I'm looking forward to a fresh new batch of new users, content and communities.”

“It's one of the few Fediverse systems that actually seems to live up to its private counterpart.”

“Lemmy is good, but not enough people on there for network effect to kick in yet.”

“every instance seems to treat itself as an insular fiefdom that bans dissenters”

“found it really hasn't hit a critical mass yet, but man, it's amazing how a good interface improves the situation”

“I've been a regular lemmy user for a few years now and it's gotten better.”

“my experience with Lemmy was a lot of petty fighting about who should be defederated”

“it would be nice to be able to follow it as a Lemmy community since it works like a federated hn/Reddit”

“However, you go to Mastodon, Pixelfed, or Lemmy and things are dramatically better.”

“It feels a lot like Reddit did in like 2012. Small, but a great community.”

“a bunch of rejects from other mod communities showing up to render their version of justice upon federated folks”

“A majority of people there are just downright awful, and the mods are often power-hungry and overzealous in their actions.”

“at least if a server goes down everything is still saved on federated servers”

“I ended up forgetting to visit Lemmy or Pixelfed because I had 2-3 times when I opened up the app and saw the exact same content”

“If you add things like YouTube, Reddit, Lemmy, Bluesky, etc. you will reach the limit very quickly.”

“Lemmy and any other fediverse apps comes with a set of moderation tools that allow you to handle this”

“The more people who do this the more people will see it as a viable alternative”

“it works fairly well and doesn't yet seem filled with bots, but its got the same issues as Reddit”

“lemmy's c/technology can probably replace HN in some contexts but the streets of lemmy are empty”

“it its punching far above its weight in terms on good content/users”

“you can pretty much use any instance and subscribe to interesting _communities_ from there”

“Even Lemmy is a great alternative to Reddit nowadays (I'd say, even better than Reddit).”

“Lemmy has been far more pleasant as there is still good posting etiquette.”

“Most have fediverse open source solutions available (mastodon/lemmy/pixelfed/loops.video & peertube)”

“it displays reasonable on Lemmy using the first line of the post as a title”

“Lemmy is occupied by tankies and Marxist leninists and that's not my type of lefties.”

“Lemmy is no substitute for Reddit. Majority of it is run by tankies and people professing extreme left views.”

“for a bit of casual doom scrolling it's fully replaced Reddit for me”

“Lemmy is great btw. I started putting "lemmy" instead of "reddit" in my searches and it often works.”
