Hi! Recently exiled reddit user, here. I’m curious what other alternatives to reddit there are, besides Lemmy, and Raddle, of course. Also, imho, Phuks is a good alternative, there’s no hate-speech (that I’m aware of) and people are pretty respectful. Anyways, let’s hear your suggestions! Thank you!
Looks like it’s open source, but very dead
Sorting by new gets around 1-3 posts a day, site wide
the top post of all time was 6 years ago and it was discussing the shut down of Voat
So while they might not have recent hate speech, it seems like that’s the community that started there. Sort by top all to see the context
Even by reddit standard, Lemmy is a dead zone as well.
Facts. Came here to try and escape Reddit. Not sure there is enough engagement to scratch the itch.
It definitely isn’t enough to feed the constant content addiction I had with Reddit, but I’ve found that kind of a good thing lol. I’ve started reading books and comics on my phone, getting out of bed faster, working on other projects, etc. It’s like using a less toxic version to wean off, like using vapes or patches to get off cigarettes.
Agreed, imo lemmy is still better. Sadly, we still lack the niche communities reddit has…
That’s the one thing, I really want more niche communities. Not sure if we just need more people or community discovery needs to be easier. I’d like to see more with the league of legends community and Meet Your Maker community, and I’m sure other people have niche video games or other small hobby communities they’d like to see take off more.
