Same here. Never could be bothered to make an account on Reddit in all my years of lurking there, but here I am.

i doompost here more than normal, yes.
lemmy is the least bad of all the alternatives atm and it think it should thrive
A lot more. On other platforms with more users I always feel like I am just commenting into the void on a post with, idk 400 comments / replies. If it only has 0 to ~150 comments it feels less so.
I was definitely more active on Reddit, since it had the niche subs I wanted to discuss on. Lemmy has more "generic" content, since it doesn't have the user base to grow those niche communities.
Definitely comment more than I did on Reddit. I feel like if I comment on Reddit post that has been up for a couple hours, my comment will never get seen -- haven't seen that here
Honestly not much. I interacted a lot more with people on squabbles before that went to shit, but now I am a bit like the friendly pink blob that gets punched back into its box and swears to never come out again...
I interact a bit more just to support the community. I don't have much to say though, so that's all I can contribute 🤣
Yes
Not really. Reddit was mostly fine, but I do at least feel that as there are fewer users on Lemmy it's easier to interact with others than just posting to the void.
A little less than Reddit as threads have less to respond to
Definitely more. A lurker too. Idk, I feel like I'm less afraid of being judged here.
Simply put, yes, I feel the same way.
About the same as my reddit activity before I left.
I don't have Instagram or Twitter and Facebook is just a glorified birthday reminder that I check every other week. You could probably count the number of my replies on public posts on Facebook on one hand.
I would actually say I interact less, but the things I say on here tend to be more meaningful outside of the dumb jokes and references. Like I have more of a tendency to have an actual discussion on here and write out my thoughts versus on Reddit where I would say low-effort shit or something purely for the dopamine rush of getting those sick upvotes.
Yeah, I feel more up for interacting on lemmy. Right now the vibe feels more sane and friendly than reddit and less uptight than mastodon, so maybe it's where I feel most comfortable.
I'm perma banned off reddit so the answer is yes I use lemmy more than reddit
I feel like because Lemmy is smaller, I get more responses. So I like interacting on Lemmy more, but I don't think I do it more frequently.
Yea
Same thing happens to me.
Yes. And you don’t get the snarky clownshoes responses that are probably just bots anyway.
I think yes but I would still call myself a lurker. I don't feel any pressure here to write a good comment.
nah I comment about the same as I did on reddit
