What are your thoughts on the Lemmy ecosystem?

I’ve been trying it out for the last week. I have my own opinions, but I’d like to hear others and see if we have common ideas on what is good/bad/indifferent about the Lemmy ecosystem.

    It’s working for me, but might not be for everyone.

    I like that when I scroll through the comments, I recognize names. Commenting feels less like shouting into a random crowd, and more like having a conversation at a party where strangers may pop in and out.

    There’s definitely less content. If you’re looking for something to doom scroll, you’re going to burn through everything quickly, but for me, I open it up when I’m bored, see what’s new, and in 5-10 minutes, I’m all caught up and back to the real world.

    Not everybody is looking to ween themselves back from constant social media, but it’s turned into a benefit for me.
