    I don’t see a lot of people voicing this opinion so I’ll share this:

    I like lemmit. It adds value to me as I can keep up with some very small communities on Reddit that I care about a lot, while spending all of my time on lemmy. If it didn’t exist, I’d have to keep visiting Reddit for some communities, and that would make me sad. Yes, I hope I can abandon Reddit completely some day, but lemmit is a great way for certain things to transition across the gap that still exists.
