Overall, maybe. But in my niche subs not.

Sadly, no. Just not enough content on Lemmy, yet.
As somebody who just uses the mobile site on Firefox, I didn’t really feel affected by the API changes (besides the fact that Reddit once again showed their ugly face). All the subs I care about feel unchanged.
Yes. I see a lot of comments on Reddit like “I tried Lemmy, but you have to sign up for every instance”, because it’s so opaque how you can subscribe to different instances. Personally, I copy the “handle”, add it to my URL manually, then subscribe. But this is nothing any mainstream user would do.
I like it! Main issue for me is that there is not enough content on my hobbies, and “all” content is mostly filled with reddit-this and lemmy-that (or now threads) stuff, which is annoying because I don’t want to talk more about the platform than actually using it. But I hope this will change with some time.
I use only the browser, UX and UI is pretty straight forward, but subscribing to communities of other instances is really weird. I need to copy the “handle” (i.e. [email protected]), and add it manually to my instance domain (i.e. lemmy.world/c/[email protected]), and then I subscribe to it. I don’t know if there are other ways (besides finding new communities via “all”).
I’m not into the technicals of lemmy or the fediverse, but I guess this is not easily solvable, as an instance doesn’t know that I am the user of another instance.
Arts (Printmaking, Graffiti, sculpture, calligraphy, typography, design), and all the SFW porn subs.
Also, I’m really amazed that https://lemmy.world/c/sourdough is already quite active.
So, how much do you spend, why are you doing it, and do you get any funding or paying this or of your pocket? (just trying to understand how the fediverse works)
With my peers it’s mostly just “phone” nowadays. Likely because landline phones are really rare now.
