For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

Actually I feel excited, because Lemmy has sparked a new interest in news aggregators and the fediverse and I'm enjoying my time here a lot.

I agree, it feels a bit like the internet in the early days, where you can find mindblowing new things just around the corner with a single click

Exactly! And without being called names for asking questions or interacting with people.

Yup and no big corps were tracking us.

@mrmanager @Acetamide excited for this decentralization of user information! Is Lemmy.today accepting registrations?

Absolutely, I would be happy to get more users. It's a decent server too with nice speed.

Fully agree, I've been TOO excited since I found out about Lemmy's existence. I can't wait to see how it progresses with so many people joining. :-)

Agreed! Reddit was just becoming a karma farming center. Honestly, it’s been nice to burn it all to the ground and start over
