Hello everyone!
My name is Thatiany Nunes. I hold a master’s degree from the Department of Visual Contents at Dongseo University, South Korea. I am conducting a research study to understand the impact of the Reddit migration on Lemmy and its community dynamics.
Some of you might have already received a private message containing open-ended questions. However, I am now reaching out to extend a warm invitation to the entire community to participate in a short, multiple choice survey. This survey aims to gather your experiences and perceptions of the Reddit migration on Lemmy. It will take approximately 5 minutes to complete, and participation is entirely voluntary. Rest assured, all responses will be kept strictly confidential and will be used solely for academic purposes.

This community was selected for this post due to its involvement in previous analyses conducted for my study. Mods, if this post violates any community rules, please feel free to remove it or contact me, and I will promptly delete it.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration. Your participation is greatly valued!
What are the type of communities you primarily use on Lemmy?
Leaving LGBTIQ out of this seems like a bit of an oversight.
How do you plan on collating people who put one of the many varied ways of describing those communities?
This is great, I’ve completed the form. I hope you post results here at some point!
this posting must be in response to someone asking if the pm from the same person was legit.
Completed. Hope it helps.
I have a suggestion. You may find it beneficial to add a multiple-selection question about the primary types of communities that Lemmy users subscribe to. E.g, “what are the communities you primarily use on Lemmy: Tech, Sports, DIY, Politics, Gaming, Memes/Funny” etc. It will give you a better view of the kind of user demographic that preferred to migrate vs stay on Reddit.
You might also want to add an option for “Niche/special content” as one of the reasons I miss Reddit. Because that is the #1 thing I miss, finding random car subs that could answer all sorts of mechanical questions.
