Honestly, I’ve enjoyed Lemmy far more since joining than I had been enjoying reddit for at least a couple years.
Same. The meme overload on the /all/ sort can be kind of obnoxious but it's so easy to block communities that it's a minor nuisance.
lemmy has become much tolerable after i blocked all the meme communities.
i also block hexbear and beehaw for separate reasons.
The problem is - on reddit, the userbase is large enough that I can decide what I want to talk about. If i want to discuss underwater basket weaving, there will be communities talking about that. lemmy is nowhere near big enough - there's traction on /all/ but not on the smaller communities.
