I just started this account last night. I've been a Redditor from February 2013, so how will things be different on Lemmy for Redditors trying to adjust? Also, what are Lemmy users called? Lemmitors? (lemmy.world)

Reddit users are called Redditors. What are Lemmy users called? Lemmitors? Lemmings?

How well are the Lemmy fediverses growing? How many daily unique users do we have on this service? Will we overtake Reddit someday?

What differences should I get used to over here from what I was used to on Reddit? Thanks in advance.

.ml is fine generally, this is coming from someone who was tempbanned from .ml communities for stupid reasons

Every instance has its quirks, you determine whether if you want to engage with any particular moderation scheme.

  • Lemmy.blahaj.zone has zero tolerance for anti-trans sentiment and intentional misgendering, to explictly be a LGBTQ+ safe space.
  • Lemmy.ml has less tolerance for anti-Russia and anti-China views due to its Marxist Leninist origins but isn't too bad otherwise.
  • Feddit.org follows German law which blurs the line between anti-Israel commentary and antisemitism.
  • Lemmy.ca is not an unconditional free speech haven either, the server's existence is contingent on following Canadian laws including ones barring hate speech.

    .ml has no tolerance for factual information that disproves their propaganda. This is a documented fact.

    Not disagreeing with you, that indeed is how some of those mods behave.

    It's just that I've been around this place long enough not to write off the instance, nutomic or dessalines over it. That's a personal decision of mine, but you or anyone else can make a different decision for themselves.
