Do your part, try not to lurk! (lemmy.ml)

Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

After 14 years on reddit I’m tired of watching it die, the death of Apollo is what pushed me over the edge, I loved Apollo. I’ve been browsing in here for the past few days. I like it. Trying to get used to it. Fuck reddit and u/spez all of the situation was trash. Thank you all for recommending this site!! I’m excited to be apart of it!

Ditto for RIF on Android dying. Lemmy will take some getting used to, but I refuse to support reddit for killing my user experience.

I’ve been looking for a viable alternative for years but nothing has ever stuck. Lemmy seems like it’s got enough community already that there should be some staying power.

Bringing spez back on as CEO was one of the worst decisions Reddit has made. kn0thing leaving was the last cliff too before the whole thing really went downhill.

Fuck spez for killing Apollo.
