    Yeah, I agree. I’m loving lemmy and haven’t spent more than 10-15 min. on Reddit over the past week.

      I’m not really browsing reddit anymore. Just checking in on a few niche communities once in a while. The community on the fediverse is much better than I had anticipated.

      I’m still on Reddit to upvote anything that talks about this shitshow, and recommending Lemmy.

      I’m on kbin, but this all seems to be a decent replacement. Pretty cool I can sub to Lemmy posts

        Oh that’s interesting. Normally when someone’s on a different instance, it would say: @Teali0@kbin.social or whatever as your username.

            Oh interesting. So it can look like they’re from your instance but they might not be?

              you can tell if they set a display name by if there’s an @ in the front. if it’s not there, that’s their display name. you can see their username + instance by clicking on their name

                  i still see your username, so the change hasn’t federated to my instance yet. but when it does, you will show up as whatever you set your display name to

      It reall is pretty good, I hope a lot more people can find their way to it. I’m a lurker most of the time, but I want to start engaging more, because I think the Devs have done a good job here.

      Lemmy is a wonderful tool. All we need to do is add rewards, coins, video reels, promoted posts, and then a sort of celebrity/influencer culture will naturally flourish!
