There’s a sense that Lemmy is growing and I really hope it attracts more good folks.

I use it and i like, the design is more traditional and similar to reddit, my impression is that tildes tends to be more general purpose in the themes of discussions, while lemmy like reddit has specific communities so if you want to discuss some specific topic and get a lot of content about it and there is a decent community there lemmy is the better choice i think , e.g. if you want to read about open source it's a better place to be in.
but as mentioned there isn't really mechanism that encourages more high quality discussions (like the exemplary tag), notifications about new comments isn't that good so going in depth on a certain topic can be very hard.
Is anyone using Lemmy? What do you think of it?
