      Welcome. I joined from reddit in 2025, and happy to see more come over since Reddit has become a corporate, bot-filled, propaganda arm for many different groups

      Same — I never used Reddit but I found out about Lemmy from a Content Creator I enjoy. Seemed cool, a few privacy policies later and I’m here. The more I read about Reddit the more I’m glad I never used it.

        I was super late to the party. Wasn’t really a heavy user until right around the API changes.

      You picked a decent, reliable instance. Good choice.

      Don’t forget to block the Hexbear and LemmyGrad instances! Full of nothing but fake communist trolls.

        Oh dear. I don’t even know how to do that. I really appreciate the feedback.

        Gimme a few minutes to tinker around in the settings.

        EDIT: done. Thank you again.

      Welcome. I joined 4 months ago and I’ve already seen a noticeable increase in users. Join some subs and your feed will start filling out nicely and you’ll stop thinking about Reddit.

        I’m seeing a lot more porn, which is neat. Dunno if it’s normal for a new user or the algorythm dangling a carrot. But I’ll take it!

          Haha! I jumped ship after the API ruckus. Before the NSFW filter was readily available I blocked a lot of porn communities before I had a feed I could browse at work.
