Reddit is fun croaked for me last week, now I'm all Lemmy!

Unless lemmy crashes, then I lurk reddit signed out with browser.

As the crashes and maintenance here become less frequent and the platform is more reliable I'm ready to leave reddit in the dust entirely

Lemmy doesn't crash, the .world server does. Just use a smaller instance like lemmy.zip or lemm.ee

I'm clearly not understanding this platform as well as I thought, I should probably watch a video or something!

The memes and boobs are great, but I'd love to get more reliable news and local information, seems like every Canadian one dies or is unpopular (fair enough given the limited user base which is still kind of nice)

And the news + politics seems to crash, but that's because I'm still using .World ...I think?

think of all of this like email, you get data from other providers and interact with people and posts using an "email address". im oversimplifying it, but that's how i started to wrap my head around all of this
