Made the switch a few years ago for exactly the same reason m, it’s been so much easier to get boards and keycaps.

It takes a little bit of getting used to but I’d say after like a month you’ll get used to it, main problem for me now is using ISO boards I tend to miss enter now lol

You think regular people are aware of Lemmy? If you want mainstream adoption you have to deal with big corps. If you want a platform to die because there aren’t any users, block out big corps. Fed up of arguing with people that think niche af places can thrive on the internet on a large scale. Lemmy is niche, you walk up to someone on the street and they won’t know what is it, they will know what meta/facebook is and what reddit is (not all but way more than Lemmy). You may want a tiny community with barely any content but I, and most others, left Reddit for there to be an actually decent platform, if this dies like most federated sites I’ll just go back to Reddit.

I’m glad I found your comment, its so shocking to me how everyone is just defaulting to “defederate because Meta bad” without considering that this platform needs help to remain relevant and survive
