Are there any Reddit refugees spending more time on Lemmy than Reddit?

AskThinkingTim@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 386 points –

I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it's because I am limited to using the desktop and can't aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.

my biggest problem is, that i have to create multiple accounts to watch my furry anatomy threads

As long as all of the instances you want to watch content on are federated, you should only need one account on one instance to see it all. You can search for !communityname@instance.tld. For instance, to be able to see this community I searched for !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world in my own instance (you have to search a couple of times, it takes at least two from ... I don't remember where I read it on github, but I saw it!) and you can subscribe and interact with it.

Not at all, I just have this one account and have access to all instances. Like the guy explained.
