    I intend to stay here on beehaw. It will take me a while to get over the habituated behaviors I had with reddit, but the quality of the posts over here is high. I don’t feel like voices are getting drowned out over here. So reddit won’t miss me. Over time, I won’t miss reddit. All good things must end.

    Now time to enjoy watching how new communities and the software driving Lemmy develop.

      Yeah, I also will be staying on Lemmy. There’s bugs and performance issues but the quality of conversation is better and interaction feels genuine. There’s also actual possibilities to contribute instead of getting lost in a sea of rehashed comments.
      The main thing that is missing now (and I assume will remain missing) are the hobby communities, especially those aimed at non-techies, like sewing, cross stitch,… I feel the people there aren’t going to bother with figuring out Lemmy/Kbin/Fediverse… because they tend to be less tech savvy.
