I've been here since the API changes at Reddit and the sub blackouts that followed, and I think it's becoming more interesting all the time. Back in the early days there was no point in refreshing the /all feed more than once every 4 hours as it just wouldn't have changed, now it's much more than that. The number of posts with actual discussions are increasing, and other than a few blocked users, communities and one instance, I like the people I'm sharing space with.
I also greatly prefer the people on Lemmy and I hope that continues even as more and more redditors show up. Without a spez calling the shots, perhaps instances will tend to ban and defederate from far-right radicalization chambers instead of promoting them to the front page.
Pretty much all of the far-right instances are defederated from the major servers, except lemm.ee, which intentionally lets users block instances they don't like.
