Just checking the vibe. I see that this community doesn’t have much activity, but maybe people are interested in migrating here amidst the reddit controversy.
This is my ~/
I’m a Redditor immigrant. I think Lemmy is a much better fit for the Arch community, and have had this transition on my mind since the Twitter buyout. I’m hoping this push will bring enough of us over that it sticks.
I can’t even remember if I subscribed to r/archlinux over there, I’ve eradicated my account now so it doesn’t really matter. The important bits are (1) I’m an Arch user, amd64 and arm7hf mainly. (2) I’m subbed to this community. May it live long and prosper!
Absolutely!
I just made an account today, planning on deleting reddit soon
I am really tired of Reddit. Unfortunately, Reddit’s user don’t care about the API decisions. Screw Reddit.
Definitely, ditched my Reddit account. I was already unhappy with Reddit for some time, so while others are mad about the API changes, for me it’s the best that could happen because it made me discover Lemmy.

I have just subscribed to as many Lemmy equivalents to my subreddits as I could find. I plan to make Lemmy a permanent part of my browsing. Already contemplating on whether I should delete my Reddit account but I am still waiting out the situation to see what happens. What /u/spez has said doesn’t give me much hope though. I do hope Lemmy takes off. The limited browsing I’ve done on Lemmy has already convinced me that its a better experience than Reddit from a UI / UX perspective.
yep! the only thing i used reddit for (other than funny pictures, which we could all realistically do without) was tech support and discussing linux-related topics. And it seems, at least for now, the userbase swings pretty heavily towards tech savvy people so I’m sure this place will be great :)
I migrated fully from reddit. Deleted my comments and account. This will be my replacement for r/archlinux
I’ll give Lemmy a try, now and currently this seems to be the “to go” community for Arch Linux. So I’ll be around here for a while.
It’s going to take a little time and maturing of the software but I think the fediverse had a bright future.
Im sticking with the fediverse.
I’m down for seeing where this trip takes us. If nothing else it’s an opportunity to meet new folks.
