I created an account on Lemmy.world earlier this summer but it remained dormant for the most part because I tend to participate in these kinds of forums from my phone. It's similar to a preference to watching movies and television shows on a television. I wasn't streaming until apps and services became available to stream and watch directly on my TV. I just wasn't going to watch on my phone or computer except once in a blue moon.
After experimenting with several apps, Boost for Reddit was what I preferred and used for a long while back there. As soon as Boost became available for Lemmy, the ease of participating here for me was as smooth as silk. For others that Boost was a fave with, it's probably the same.
It's great that activity is on the rise on alternatives such as Lemmy.
Kind of the same for me. Just to add that I only heard about Boost after the whole thing came about
Tried some apps, and decided to wait until this one became available.
It's a very similar experience IMHO, love the customization options.
