Lemmy resembles the old reddit experience so well that they even emulate the old reddit server performance

Legit the first thing I noticed. It’s actually not that hard to find the community you’re looking for.
- Finding a hard time finding an active soccer community. The largest one only has a comment or two per post.
  I'm looking forward it growing though. r/soccer 2010-2014 was my favourite internet community ever.
  
  Yeah but if you comment then the commenting instantly goes up 33-50%!
  
  c/football is the major one for now but will grow over time as more features are available or widely known.
  
  Afaik saying c/football is meaningless because there can be a c/football on every instance.
  
  I’m seeing one on Lemmy.world and one on Lemmy.ml when I do a federated search. One has 2000+ members and the other 10. Thought that would be self explanatory, my bad.
  
  No problem!
  On lemmy though the correct way to link communities is !football@lemmy.world
  
  !football@lemmy.world would probably be better, just FYI.
  
  I mentioned that one. That’s the one with +2000 ppl.
  
  Yeah, I meant the way to link communities, c/community-name isn't the best.
  
  I've been disappointed at how inactive the Rust communities I've seen are. r/rust was the main reason I visited Reddit.
  
  Have you seen !rust@programming.dev?
  Not a Rust dev but it looks pretty active to me.
  
  !rust@lemmy.ml and !rustlang@lemmyrs.org are also (relatively) active.
  
  Ahh but theres now 3 i have to browse
  
  That's what I'm doing for now 😅
  Maybe in the future one of them will become the official one. Or there will be an official version and community version.
