    Very much this. I’ve got an almost automatic habit of opening reddit when I’m bored and don’t have much to do. After a couple of times of seeing that message, I’ve been searching for the lemmy counterparts for my favourite subs. Turns out a lot of them are getting some steam!

        Same. I just joined like >12h ago, and already there is some activity in channels, that I couldn’t find any discussion on a few hours ago.

          I’m starting to use the word “sublems” instead of “channels” or “communities”. Maybe it will catch on.

            Sublems is an absolutely fantastic word that I am now adopting! E.g. “Hopefully soon Jerboa handles sublem links better in comments. That’s something I loved about Relay”
