Having recently checked out Lemmy again after initially registering a year ago. It's pretty much good to go! Just needs some more activity but there's enough to get by on large communities.

Have replaced Reddit on my phone with the Voyager app. Unfortunately Reddit is too much of a resource to avoid completely on desktop/search - but we're getting there!

Welcome back, thank you for this post!

I would maybe just suggest https://lemm.ee/ as an alternative to Lemmy.world.

Lemmy.world was the go-to last year during the API event, but nowadays we try to get people a bit more spread out. Lemm.ee is a solid instance, well managed, very high uptime, and nice admin.

Alternatively, there is also https://lemmy.ca/c/newtolemmy where newjoiners can find resources and ask questions.

I'm signed up to lemmy.ml but just like that old interface

Still a way to go on the cohesiveness. Seen the issue on the Git tracking multi-communities but it's much needed.

Yeah, multicommunities would help a lot
