Yeah to me it’s more useful and fun than microblogging as well.

hell yes. Before the big reddit fiasco it was soooo quiet here ^^

😊 aaaaw

Now I can’t wait for my server to get it

Yeah I like that as well :)

Why would this be not the right place?

You are free to learn to program and write a user import routine for lemmy: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy

You have to create a new account. But that’s easy ;)

No, on lemmy you can’t subscribe to users at all. What activitypub call groups is what lemmy uses. A mastodon user can subscribe to a community on lemmy, because mastodon allows for subscribing/following groups, but the other way around, following users from lemmy that are on any other platform is not possible.

The Dev said that it would be a huge amount of work to implement this and it doesn’t even fit into the linkblog style thing that lemmy is. How would the content of said user be shown to you here? It would get even more confusing fast.

I think the lemmy structure really annoys trolls and right-wingers. They could register on a server, but they would have to play by the rules (be nice, don’t be a nazi etc), which they really don’t want. So they want their own server, but quickly realize that they’ll be alone there with their miserable peers, which they also don’t like.
