  • I installed Lemmy, hoping it’ll be a good alternative

    So what made you install Lemmy

    If you interact with a website through an app, you are ceding both functionality and power. Angry Birds is an app, Signal is an app, Reddit and Lemmy are websites with URLs and you are duplicating the function of a browser if you use anything else.

    I’d heard of Lemmy (and Raddle) since the late 2010s, and put them in the “things I’d like to pivot to at some point” category. The main subreddit that I posted on (a transgressive mix of edgy, caring, partisan, and weird) was quarantined and then finally banned in 2020. As a result I quit using reddit altogether, but after a few months I poked around and realized people from that sub had started a forked instance of Lemmy as a refuge.

    The one thing that’s lackluster is the search function. Everything else is superior.
