I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?
I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!
I’m so confused!! Still trying to figure out how to tell jerboa to show me communities that aren’t local (and aren’t showing in all - I did find memes and other juicy numbers there!)…
I might have made the mistake of trying to pick a server that wasn’t struggling under the load of the Reddit refugees, but I still don’t think it was a bad idea…
Quite a learning curve though. Some cheat sheets or heaven forbid, starter packs would be snazzy :)
I think your homeserver was a good choice :)
Thanks!
I’m still arguing to reach out to communities in other instances through it (or to log in on other instances where the content I’m interested in resides - is that a valid concept??),but I’m having fun and it sure is new. Edit: I have finally realized it’s done in the servers communities listing, not in Jerboas listing of subscribed communities - am doofus…/editI love the federated idea, that’s a great approach to the corporate overlording that’s going on these days.
In an earlier time, id probably struggle through spinning up another server, but I’m way too over it the days…
