Will do!

I’m in the process of setting up my own instance for fun, as today was a slow work day.

Yeah, I saw that too, but other places I signed up still haven’t approved me, so I signed up here.

It depends. If I know I’ll be picking it up to play again from where I left off in a few hours, I will put it to sleep. But if I’m done for the day, I will shut it down.

I’ve had some issues getting it to turn on from sleep mode though, so tend to shut it down more than put it to sleep.

Time will tell. Given Reddit’s behavior recently, alternatives like lemmy are bound to see a spike in users. Just keep in mind that more users doesn’t necessarily mean good content.

Yup. That played a big role for me, too. The other factor was lemmy.ml was the first to approve my signup, finally giving me the ability to post. I’m still looking around to get a feel for other instances, and might even set up my own.

I’d wager a large percentage are bots, too!

I’m not ditching Reddit, just here trying out alternatives.

How has your lemmy experience been so far?

Well… I’m scrolling and F5’ing as if I was on Reddit, so honestly doesn’t feel that different, yet.

That’s, so sad. Apollo has so many users that are going to be heartbroken. Feel bad for Christian.
