First of all,welcome to Lemmy!
Here are a few pointers to help you settle in
Feel free if you have any questions!
Loving it so far! I’ve also found great replacements for all the US software I’ve been using. Should have done that a long time ago, there are actually amazing non fascist alternatives!
Welcome!
I was looking for reddit alternatives before and didn’t pull through. Now that I did (first hour), I dont see why anyone wouldn’t “migrate”.
Ah, and I’m using “eternity”. Reminds me of the old days before reddit turned facebook.
99.9% of the time I’m just lurking on Reddit, but here I‘m actually getting interested in commenting again. Feels „safer“ than the other place.
I’m surprised how quickly I’ve gotten used to it! I honestly really like the mobile app and it’s gestures, as well as the customizability.
Although I don’t think I’ll be completely quitting reddit just yet, as some of my more niche interests don’t have communities here yet.
Have you considered creating new communities for your niche interests? You might just find like-minded people here. :)
I would but I simply don’t have the time or motivation to moderate and manage a community
Well here’s the thing, if no one shows up then there’s nothing to moderate, and if people show up you can make one or several of moderators. ;) But you’ll never find out unless you create a community.
