Nothing important here. I just want to see how many people are moving away from Reddit.

    How does everyone from Reddit feel about the lemmy experience?

    As of this moment, there are currently:

    • 476 subscribers from lemmy.world
    • 61 subscribers from kbin.social
    • 30 subscribers from lemmy.ml

    It’ll take time, and most importantly content, to entice migration.

      Content! That’s the key.

      As for the platform, i like the inline commenting, but I miss markdown. Also, it keeps the interface in Greek(??). I do have Greek installed as a secondary keyboard layout for all my physics/maths typing, but having a Greek interface (which I have to change everytime from “Browser’s default” to English, is weird.

      I know it’s early days, and this wasn’t exactly something that could be planned for, but have you considered whether this community should be on a separate lemmy instance? What I mean is, it looks like the main motivation to reopen r/pop_os is to keep that content publicly available. But it shows the conflict of having that content on a platform that’s not controlled by the Pop project, or its users, or S76. So far I don’t imagine a conflict with the lemmy.world admin, but can that be guaranteed? Is there (at least planned) functionality for a whole community to move from one lemmy instance to another?

        The lemmy.world maintainer has a lot of experience hosting instances for Mastodon, and lemmy.world currently has the best hardware, highest uptime, and now the highest population count compared to other instances.

        What other instance would you recommend?
