Like a lot of others, I've been looking at Reddit alternatives recently which is what landed me here at Lemmy.

How do you think Lemmy compares to Reddit? But also, for people who have tried other Reddit alternatives than Lemmy, how do they compare? What has been the pros and cons of each community for you?

There was one a few years ago that has since shut down. I think it was called Ruqqus or something? Using the website I think it was the best out of all the alternatives I've tried, the site was well made and enjoyable, good features and tools (open source, but not federated)

Only problem was the userbase was nothing but far-right users, so racist and bigots.

I think Lemmy is good, once the apps become more polished and refined then it might become my favourite.
