  • Me too

  • Piefed!

  • Where is the question?

    Also, wouldn't that maybe more appropriate on an American politics community?

  • Good news, I have been using them on Mull since a while, quite useful

  • It's a Piefed feature for people unaware, thanks for sharing that thread

  • My recommendation, first being the best:

    • lemm.ee
    • sh.itjust.works if you are ok with the name
    • discuss.tchncs.de or lemmy.ca depending if you are located in Europe or North America
    • lemmy.zip as they are good contenders, but a bit smaller than the others

    If you don't want downvotes (which can be quite liberating), Reddthat.com is a good choice

    All of those instances are well managed and transparent with their updates, administration and cost.

    Lemmy world is okay, but they are already very big, so it's better to go to another one from a decentralization perspective.

  • More language diverse than Reddit, especially on language based instances. Shout out to the Germans who seem much more active than other languages (such as French or Spanish)

  • It's really location depend. For Europeans, the sidebar of !yurop@lemm.ee lists the national communities, the bigger countries are usually the most active

  • !movies@lemm.ee

    There is some activity, we even had an AMA with a director/actor, but the discussion threads dedicated to movies struggle to get comments (the one notable exception being Dune Part II)

  • It's interesting to see how challenging it is to fork Mastodon while Misskey must have 10 active forks at the moment

  • I can only comment on my experience searching for communities in lemmy and people to follow on mastadon, but in both cases I am not sure I’d say “works quite well” would describe my experience.

    For communities, https://lemmyverse.net/communities is probably better.

    I use the built-in search engine for posts, and usually the results are relevant and accurate

  • The built-in search function works quite well I would say

  • I don't knooow

    Can you repeat the question

  • Thank you for your work on Raccoon btw

  • I personally started seeing some of my posts on other platforms get more comments and upvotes.

    Which are those? Discuit?

    Lemmy is fine, definitely room for improvement, but communities are starting to build.

    Be wary about Reddit threads. People there are still on Reddit, they are usually very critic of any alternative

  • Thanks!

  • Account created 15 minutes ago, 2 questions about wokism, I wouldn't engage too much
