    I just deleted my 12yo account over the censorship. Reddit has become a draconian shit hole and I no longer want to be a part of it. I’m happy to be here.

    I’m one of the new users. Hi. Reddit suspended my account after I posted my indie game. No reply to my appeals for 3+ months. Gonna give Lemmy a try now

    I just really wish there was more active communities for things I like.

    I made the Path of Exile community which is currently empty.

    There’s no Burning Man community yet for SOME UNKNOWN REASON

    All the EDM communities are dead including the one I made.

    Send Help!

    Just randomly found this searching something unrelated, and suddenly I have an account. I’ve been a reddit user since it took over from digg. Which sort of took over from things like /.

    Well now I feel old. Thanks 😮‍💨

    Cool the user count is going up, just hope it’s not going to be all bots and trolls 😆

    I’ve been trying all the open social options and Lemmy is by far the most entertaining and active.

    Hopefully theres more growth in the next days and weeks. I’m absolutely hooked to migrate from reddit to lemmy, it just feels a little lonely here for now. When the time comes, my reddit is gone…

    Lemmy is the only federated service I actually enjoy using. Just missing being able to block an entire @something instead of having to block every single community of it

    and no I do not want to “choose another host that does block it”, it should be a user choice.

    Just noticed that it shows how many days ago I joined. The babies are taking over this thread. This is a baby-thread now.

    I gotta say, I respect what Lemmy does and hope it succeeds, and I think it’s a good place for discussions and such (and I will remain), but good god if this place isn’t unfunny as hell. I’m struggling real hard to find some place with actually funny content on here, which leads to me getting exceedingly riled up by politics.
