So I’ve been starting to look further into the Fediverse and using it a lot more than any other part of the internet at this point. I wanna know the reasons why people might prefer Lemmy or Mastodon, I have both but seem to lean towards Lemmy for some reason, but not sure why maybe it’s the simple design and you can find topics a little easier or it might be because I prefer the idea of Reddit over twitter.
Why do you prefer Lemmy? (or mastodon?)
Lemmy for sure! Its hard to get interaction on Mastodon
I found that too, Seems like Mastodon feels like a continues moving river as Lemmy seems to be more calm and you can actually move around.
The only reason I don’t have the same Mastodon experience as you guys tbh is that I’m on a private instance, you have to have a membership (to something else) to get on and it’s all about that shit more or less, and so I stay on my instance and follow a few randoms. The Federated tab is a nightmare, I just avoid it. Here on lemmy it is the exact opposite, I mostly stay on subbed or all (but my instance is great here too).
Thank you for sharing your experience.
