It really feels like Lemmy is alive because of you.
When I first checked out Lemmy, I wasn’t expecting there to be so much content, so much discussion, and so much community. But I’ve spent the better part of two days glued to my screen, browsing content all day. I’ve seen so many posts, so many interesting discussions about the fediverse, and of course, plenty of memes. It really feels like the start of something incredible.
I’ve gotta get back to work soon, but wow. I think this whole fediverse thing really is the next step for social media. If I find some extra time, I’ll definitely consider contributing to Lemmy’s source code to help this project and the FOSS ecosystem grow.
I joined here on June 12th and there were practically no posts or communities. Now I can’t keep track of it all. I’m so glad to be here and finally be part of this social movement - I’ve been tracking the Fediverse/Mastodon/Friendica/GNU Social/Diaspora/etc for a VERY long time, but the format of those networks has never been interesting to me. I want to talk about topics, not people.
