A bit rough on the edges and scarce in content but I'm hopeful it will improve with time.

I've gotten more done today than I have in a long time. And spent plenty of time in the Fediverse too. I'm loving this so far, there'll be things I'll miss of course.

It's early stages but the conversations here feel more "high effort". I think it might also be because of signup approvals which weeds out bots/low effort posters. I do feel the growth pains with the timeouts happening more often but overall content-wise it is quite nice.

I dislike how in the app there's no functional inline image/video viewer, at least on my end (unsure if it's not working on my end or its just something everyone lives with).

The interface is simple and reminds me of old Reddit, which I like. There are some bugs, but that's normal. It's important for people who create communities to actually participate in them. On the mobile version, I wish there was more random stuff in my feed to find new communities easily.

I've moved here cause of the current Reddit drama, and I gotta say, this is a lot nicer than reddit currently is

I LOVE the interface here

I think there's a lot of room for enhancing the user experience, but it's definitely not bad. This will come in time.

I feel like the content and discussion is a bit more mature than reddit. This is the main reason I will stay here.

It's been taking a bit of tweaking since I decided to host my own instance, but when it works it's fantastic. Feels like the social media of 10 years ago.

It's taken a little getting used to, but it isn't too difficult to learn. Agree with loving the simplicity; just wondering if there's a way for us to customize the styling/colors? Also for some reason the votes on posts keep cycling through random numbers, lol

Really can't complain though since it takes a lot of money and time to build stuff like this.

It's been pretty fun! I'm looking forward to what's to come!

I understand how federation works, and Lemmy's UI seems more or less fine, but I guess I'm still not quite sold on federation in this style being the answer for Reddit-like functionality. It's a bit awkward, and unlike how Twitter's functionality is quite easily mimicked by Mastodon, I'm still kind of skeptical that following subreddit equivalents in that fashion maps quite as cleanly.

I'm not sure how I would do it differently, but I get the sense that there is a better way to have a decentralized Reddit-like experience, and probably one that avoids the risks of the current method (downtime, discoverability, scaling costs for the largest instances, etc).

I'll stick around the fediverse for now, but I really get the sense that it was built for a Twitter or maybe Tumblr like experience, and the Reddit-like experience will always feel a bit short of ideal.

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

I'm currently using the web mobile version, and tbh it is already way better than Reddit version lol.

There's a lot to learn. Luckily I have lots of time. So far I dig it

It's a little buggy here and there and needs some UI improvement, but once I finish setting up my account and subscribe to communities it's quite good. Being able to search and subscribe to communities from both Local Server and All Servers within Lemmy should be made more clear for new users, as they normally use search bar to search for eveything.

I initially try to access Lemmy and comment posts from my Mastodon account. I can paste Lemmy post url to search bar in Mastodon, hit enter and the post will appear. But it's like parsing a Reddit post and its comment to a Twitter one, it's not the same experience, so I have to create a Lemmy account. I guess it is great if you want to promote something within Fediverse
