Not really, lemmy feels very similar to reddit, it only needs a little more content.

Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

No. It’s a website run by dumb cunts.
I'm missing it a lot less than I ever missed Twitter…
For the most part, Reddit has sort of filled a void of community groups or random goofy videos/memes for me, as I'm not on either FB/IG or TikTok. On Reddit I could see a post about something going on in my city (Portland), a review of a game I like, a cat floofing out of a tiny vase, and a gorgeous photo of a mountainside all in the span of 30 seconds. It'll be a bummer not to have that experience any more, but I get enough value out of the Fediverse at this point (along with a few Discord servers) I'm not going to lose sleep over it.

It's sad but Reddit has been going downhill for a while now so I've been expecting this day to come soon. This is just the final change that pushed me over the edge after having an account for 14 years. All the big subreddits seem to now be full of spam, arguments, ads disguised as posts. I'll only really miss the smaller niche communities I follow, I'm not sure Lemmy will be able to fill that gap but we'll see.
