Yea I feel like after spending the day on Lemmy.world I'd like to see where this goes. I think if one thing is true reddit created a genre of a "central" place to go to connect with one another over random stuff with anonymous access.
I think lemmy will have a bright future, it certainly scratches that connectivity itch that most of the nerds on these types of site have.
We don’t need to recreate Reddit. Lemmy will revolutionize that idea of communities and make it a nicer place.
