    I’m sorta looking forward to how lemmy/beehive/fediverse system improves. It’s kinda exciting. Like sure things are a bit rough around the edges for now but so was reddit for a long time. Seems like there’s a lot of people working to improve and make it better, and the communities are actually pretty big! I’m excited to get off reddit, that shit was getting stale and I’m hoping that this “reset” will also help build new communities that aren’t just reposting the same shit over and over again.

      Yeah I’ve been enjoying that aspect too, finding posts from communities I’ve never heard of before.

      I never paid for Reddit, but I’ve already donated to Lemmy.world (mastodon.world) and the Jerboa app. I’ve done the same for signal. Just a couple of coffees worth, but I see myself doing it from time to time as I remember.

      I’m just so pumped about the way things are growing here, and think this federated donation-based model for a Reddit-like app is fantastic.
