Really fragmented, but really good.

I like the community. I’m hoping that Lemmy doesn’t turn into the cesspool that parts of Reddit became. I do have to refresh the page to see my posts and comments, but I imagine that there are some functional difficulties with scaling the platform to accommodate all of the people coming from Reddit.

As someone who always felt very overshadowed on Reddit, I’m looking forward to contributing more here.

The page is jumping around some on Safari for iPad, but I’m sticking with it for now.

I was talking with my friend about this last night and his biggest gripe was that he didn’t know which communities to join. IE there are communities of similar names and intents on different servers, and that choice was annoying. I’m guessing that as the fediverse expands this will be less of an issue, thoughts?

I’m quite lost, and don’t think I fully understand the distributed nature of the various Lemmy instances (if I’m even using those words properly).

I’ll do it like Reddit 10 years ago… wander in, poke around, make a snarky comment or 4 and see where it goes.

I’m enjoying, not sure if my comments are being submitted yet though…

I quite like the super-minimal interface design of fedia.io. I’m excited to see where this all goes.

I love it! I love the energy of everyone trying to figure out what the future will be. And it feels good to be out of this corporate dystopia that reddit has become.

i like the minimal look as it mirrors my RES and old.r settings. I would like the ability to stretch the pages out to fill in the empty voids of my 1440 window though. At the moment it looks like Lemmy was built on a mobile portrait view only.

i’m loving it! it scratches the itch without the reddit ick 🤣

Once you get a hang of how the fediverse works in general, it’s pretty good so far. Using mostly mobile atm, nice and clean, functional pretty similar experience to reddit. Aside from a few features missing like search, I’d imagine there is plenty of room for moderator tools too, and the occasional error codes, I’m loving it so far. No ads, just content, and while it’s not the firehose that reddit is/was, if this keeps getting popular, I could forsee just as many communities popping up across instances as there are subreddits.

I’m sure with the influx of users from reddit, especially the more technically savvy mods we’re going to see a lot of good tools made for the app and with it being open source, I imagine the devtimes are going to be even quicker than dealing with an ok API.

Quite like it. Jerboa is usable despite its early development state.

I miss and probably will continue to miss some of the smaller niche communities, which are really only viable on huge servers/networks. Notably /flying and /NetBSD. There probably aren’t enough active users to create thriving communities on both reddit and lemmy. Although /r/flying participates in the blackout, I expect most redditors there will stay. I used the site on desktop most of the time, too, and I don’t see myself cutting all ties, either.

So, ambivalent, I’d say. I’ll see what the mobile app situation will be in a few weeks; Infinity has worked well for me.

After all of 5 minutes, I’m undecided. It’s not Reddit, which is probably a good thing at this point. I need to spend more time here…

I do see a lot of potential but there are some issues I’m facing. For some reason, I’m unable to login to lemmy.world from my phone. There’s not a whole lot of content but I’m expecting that to change. It’s very nice here, overall.

I signed up yesterday. It is close enough to something like old.reddit where I feel comfortable navigating around. I dont know how else to describe it, but it really feels like the site is populated by people creating content organically, and not just a bunch of bots or marketing accounts instigating engagement. Its refreshing that way
