Just checking the vibe. I see that this community doesn’t have much activity, but maybe people are interested in migrating here amidst the reddit controversy.

    I can’t even remember if I subscribed to r/archlinux over there, I’ve eradicated my account now so it doesn’t really matter. The important bits are (1) I’m an Arch user, amd64 and arm7hf mainly. (2) I’m subbed to this community. May it live long and prosper!

    I migrated fully from reddit. Deleted my comments and account. This will be my replacement for r/archlinux

    I’ve been feeling a bit done with reddit for a while now. This is the first time I see such a viable alternative! I really think if things like this pick up traction the internet will get better for once.

    I just joined recently and I’m really enjoying lemmy so far. It’s great not having an algorithm trying to guess what I want to view all the time and it’s just nice having the power to search for topics that I actually want to discuss.

    I’m down for seeing where this trip takes us. If nothing else it’s an opportunity to meet new folks.

    I’ll give Lemmy a try, now and currently this seems to be the “to go” community for Arch Linux. So I’ll be around here for a while.

    I started using Lemmy last week and for a couple days it was slow (in terms of activity). But especially after Monday, activity is REALLY starting to pick up. I have high hopes for Lemmy and hope not to go back to Reddit.

    Yep! I’m going to hand my subreddits over to others in their respective communities, and possibly delete my account after that.

    I have high hopes for Lemmy.

    I have just subscribed to as many Lemmy equivalents to my subreddits as I could find. I plan to make Lemmy a permanent part of my browsing. Already contemplating on whether I should delete my Reddit account but I am still waiting out the situation to see what happens. What /u/spez has said doesn’t give me much hope though. I do hope Lemmy takes off. The limited browsing I’ve done on Lemmy has already convinced me that its a better experience than Reddit from a UI / UX perspective.

    I’m a Redditor immigrant. I think Lemmy is a much better fit for the Arch community, and have had this transition on my mind since the Twitter buyout. I’m hoping this push will bring enough of us over that it sticks.

    Yeah, I’m here for the foreseeable future… my rif app is gone, and I don’t think I’ll reinstallinstall it, just like when twitter became fedilab (I’m on linuxrocks.online over there), rif is now jerboa. And I’m going deeper into the fediverse.

    And I’ll admit… Since I joined both apps have been growing on me quite fast

    I certainly came here via the controversy. Glad to have found Lemmy, really.
