I really want to like lemmy, but it’s difficult. I’m new to all this fediverse thingy, and I might just have old habits and perceptions how things should work but… I keep seeing the same posts more than once, iOS experience is not that good really, sometimes I see dead posts from 2 years ago for some reason, despite having subscribed to like 30 communities there aren’t that many new posts to read.
Part of it probably that subreddits had millions of people so a lot of posts every minute, but it still feels underwhelming.
It’s not as doomscrolly. Maybe I should find something else to waste my time on haha
What is your experience with lemmy? Maybe I just do things wrong. Let me know
I definitely am having a tough time making the transition. It still feels a bit chaotic to me.
I was the same way the first couple of days after starting, but I can tell you that after a week into using the platform it has gotten a lot less chaotic. I have learned most of the basics and figured out what are the features and what are the bugs, so I’m not so lost all the time trying to figure out how it all is supposed to work.
And I’m really enjoying it! It feels like a fresh start, and it keeps me engaged in the community and helping to build a better place for anyone else who is looking for alternatives. It gets better!
