I mean, the downsides of the Fediverse have been discussed at length.

Here's a routine occurence: i'm browsing around, opening new tabs and such; then i go to upvote something, and it tells me i'm not logged in. This is how i find out i've accidentally left my instance. It's cooked at that point, i'm not going to post that comment, if i really wanted to i'd have to carefully replace the relevant parts of the URL. This keeps happening in both Lemmy and Mastodon.

I need to 1. Not fall out of my instance as easily, and 2. if i've opened a page outside my instance, i need to be able to open the same page in my instance in one click. Anything else is is annoying to me and a complete deal breaker to most new users.

I don't doubt that there's loads of work done in the backend that i don't see, but from my point of view as a user, Lemmy still has the same problems it had when i joined two years ago. That's right, it's been just about two years, the Reddit API debacle was around April-June of 23, and i haven't seen glaring problems adressed.
