It is OK. Performance is a bit bumpy (expected) and communities are a lot quieter, but it is much much nicer here. Reddit is filled with absolute morons who scream SOURCE!!!!!! every time they see a joke or opinion which doesn't allign with their belief that children standing 8na. School yard deserved to die because they have the right to drive angiant car

I like it but still dealing with a bit of a learning curve. I expected some glitches and slow downs so that hasn't really bothered me. Looking forward to watching the platform evolve and take shape as I learn more.
As a former reddit sync app user, finding "liftoff" helped make the transition a smoother experience. I've been enjoying hunting for new communities to join and watching them grow.

I'm honest, I still don't get the universe concept. I am going on the site via feddit, which is the German version, I guess? If I want to see everything, I need to go to lemmy.world? If I get an app for it, what would it route me to?
It should be fine after a while if people stay here, but for now it's still in its infancy when it comes to user friendliness, I think.

Pretty nice. I just wish more people were here. The occasional bug is fine it seems to be fixed quickly.
Not gonna lie it was really confusing to begin with, even with a guide. Partially because I dropped by kbin first.
Im enjoying it so far, i think ive figured most of it out, got myself on a nice smaller local instance and everything is loading properly, and im consuming the information.
It's surprisingly good. I thought it would be more dead, but it actually makes for quite a nice replacement with plenty of content.
Its better in a lot of ways and I have fully switched, didnt look back since.
Is actually really nice, I like the separated servers. I can generally filter the amount of communities I see from just my interests, to my local server and then wider. One I found out I could search for and join communities I realized I could stay here
It's good. You get accustomed to something, so there's still a little loss there, but this platform has a lot of promise and I appreciate all of you who make it what it is!
I'm enjoying the discovery phase a lot more than I did with Mastodon, which I've largely abandoned now. It still has a way to go but it's fun seeing it grow.
just joined and iโm happy to be here! using wefwef as i miss apollo a lot.
Things can only get better!
I am enjoying the experience I must admit and I can't wait to see how things pan out 6 months from now. I am certainly sticking with it for the long run. Wefwef.app is amazing to interact with.
It's good. It has the pre-Digg.com migration vibe that early Reddit had. Niche communities are hard to get started, but that's to be expected.
Lots of positivity.
I haven't had to adjust to much. It's pretty much the same as before, in terms of how everything works at a basic level. I'm liking the different sorting options, more. New Comments is exactly what I like to see.
