You’re probably more active now because it’s a major event and things are changing. Would it be any different if it was some breaking tech news happening that was interesting and Reddit was like before? Maybe you find Lemmy more involving because the content is different than Reddit had been providing.

Default search is for Communities but I found I could only find some I looked for if I changed it to “All” when searching. It would say nothing found otherwise. They were an existing (but new) community on another Lemmy instance.

My first reply here, and that’s why I’ve gone ahead and branched out into different directions before things go dark. I missed out on Digg, but at the time I had gone from Usenet to various boards, and when some of them began to get quieter or stale looked around and found Reddit, soon after the Digg migration. I don’t know if it’s Lemmy or some other that will/can take up the need for a collective aggregate service, but this has potential and I like the distributed idea. With improved UI for the novice it could turn into the next Reddit without some of the baggage (and probably its own issues).
