that's pretty cool! i never got to see the barren version of lemmy. the version right now is the best state of lemmy for me. i like the cozy atmosphere. i know that will change, but by the time there's been a major change i'd be a part of the larger community of users. so that's great.

that's interesting. but:

  • why is it that you waited for lemmy in particular?

  • why wait at all, if it was already up? in other words, what does viable mean to you, for you to have come here now? i doubt that the reddit traffic has decreased that significantly.

somebody explain? :D

that's the spirit

that is true. for the most part, lemmy is designed for lemmy, unlike most of those platforms built for interconnectivity.

Were there any discussions about Lemmy on Reddit during that time?

On one of those fediverse explorers. I used Pleroma for a very short while before this. I just gave Lemmy a shot because it wasn't too popular.

It seems to me that most people here are from Reddit or looking for alternatives to Reddit. I dislike social media in general, but this is like — if I can call it this — a niche community on the internet. That appeals to me somehow. It would be nice to see who's here for the sake of Lemmy itself, like myself.

[Edit] An addition: I could be wrong about most people being from Reddit. I don't know that.
