It really feels like Lemmy is alive because of you.

When I first checked out Lemmy, I wasn’t expecting there to be so much content, so much discussion, and so much community. But I’ve spent the better part of two days glued to my screen, browsing content all day. I’ve seen so many posts, so many interesting discussions about the fediverse, and of course, plenty of memes. It really feels like the start of something incredible.

I’ve gotta get back to work soon, but wow. I think this whole fediverse thing really is the next step for social media. If I find some extra time, I’ll definitely consider contributing to Lemmy’s source code to help this project and the FOSS ecosystem grow.

    Using lemmy is part of the never ending quest of recreating the internet interactions of my youth. When real friends were made on message boards. When things felt like a real group of people, and not so hyperfocused on individual topics so as to ignore the people behind the words.

    Lemmy feels good so far

      It is reminiscent of my days when I would call up the local BBS or get on IRC or telnet talkers and speak to folks all over the world. It has been great.
