Are We Blocking Threads?
The admin of lemmy.world, @[email protected] has voiced on Mastodon.world that we are not going to defederate from Threads just yet. He wants to "wait and see", which of course offers mixed feelings from folks.

It's so much easier to comment on Lemmy because it isn't a toxic cesspool waiting to tear you apart
I feel like there isn't a "hive mind" on Lemmy like there was/is on Reddit. Even if just a few folks disagreed with your opinion on Reddit, everyone else felt like they HAD to downvote it too and then the next thing you know, you're being downvoted to oblivion. Here, it seems that folks actually respect your opinion whether or not they agree with it; and while you may get a few downvotes or more, people aren't afraid of upvoting your comment either.
Such a different vibe and I'm here for it!

Liftoff. Lemmy app. Do you like the way it works now?
Truthfully, it was my least favorite of all of the Lemmy apps. I didn't like it's user interface. Was it recently updated?

Is Lemmy THE reddit alternative for you? Are you thinking about moving somewhere else?
Absolutely. It isn't all that much different than reddit once you get used to it.

Is having an Android really a deal-breaker for some people?
This is mainly an issue in the United States and Canada.

1% rule: 1% of users actively create new content, while the other 99% only lurk.
I've historically been a lurker because I'm too lazy to comment most of the time. However, I've been trying to participate on Lemmy more than I did on Reddit in an effort to boost the fediverse and really turn this into the Reddit replacement that I want it to be.
Folks want to see an active community.

I dabbled with Jerboa, Thunder, Liftoff, Connect, and wefwef.
I like Jerboa the most.

I hope reddit stands their ground and refuses to give up the information unless they are forced to.

Difference between this Asklemmy and !asklemmy@lemmyml?

There were/are a bunch of "Ask ____" subs, yes; I was subscribed to many of them. But there was only one r/AskReddit, which most closely aligns with the purpose of the two lemmy communities referenced in this post.

THANK YOU. I'M SO GLAD I FOUND THIS.
I can't stand Windows 11's start menu because I feel like it's too basic up-front, and then when you search anything, it's completely ad ridden. I've been using Startisback to fix this; however, I never really liked the start menu from Windows 7 and prior. The W10 start menu has always been my favorite.

I kinda wish related communities shared a common instance
There are multile !asklemmy and multiple !technology and multiple !worldnews and multiple !fediverse... the list goes on.
You really think they're all just gonna create an instance together? They're seperate because they WANT to be. That's the fediverse for you. Not to mention that these instances would STILL have their own individual communities; which you would likely see across your feed at some point if you view "all" posts and not just local or subscribed. It's easier for you to just block them and call it a day.

Thanks for the reply.
It's just a change coming from reddit where there was only one r/askreddit and it was the dominant and active one as there couldn't be another r/askreddit. I'm still adjusting to there being multiple Lemmy servers.

You could compare it to some subreddits that were private long before the API debacle.
They wanted to curate a very specific community (subreddit) and didn't want folks with differing opinions inside.
