To be honest, the fact that such immature software is capable of being a viable alternative to one of the biggest websites on the internet is already super impressive.
Let's see where we will head in a couple of years.
Damn right. I've been using Reddit for years, and after this shitshow I moved to Lemmy and honestly, it doesn't feel that much different. I don't make content, nor do I moderate, so I just scroll and lurk, and comment sometimes, and Lemmy has a steep, extremely short learning curve (you can call it simply a barrier to entry), but after understanding very few basic concepts, this shit feels as natural as Reddit. Besides, I'm testing the Memmy app for iOS and it's improving exponentially. I seriously feel like Lemmy can become a good alternative, for real, not for the memes.
