I like it a lot. I come here often, it’s a good addition to my reddit use, it has some nice people and some interesting content.

I love that it is decentralized, which means that there will always be a server without ads, tracking or bad governance.

Also it feels like being part of Lemmy is being part of something new and novel. The idea of decentralizing services online, away from corporate silos, should be resurrected.

    I think it would benefit from specific communities or content creators adopting it. As long as it’s only general topics (technology, Linux, …) it has basically the same info as Reddit/Hackernews/… but less up to date and less commented. It is useless if you already use those other platforms and probably can’t get ahead this way.

    I could see Godot/Blender/… adopt it though. Blender already uses PeerTube. That would help kickstart this place.

    The software is great but the people aren’t there.
