I don’t mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I’m curious about people’s outlook on this situation.

    Mostly everyone who will try kbin/lemmy as an alternative to Reddit. Unreal how bad the UI/UX is considering the time they’ve had to copy Reddit.

    Lemmy

    • Posts are randomly added realtime when scrolling the main page making it unbearable
    • Subscribed/trending community list is a weird unaligned logo+text instead of a normal scrollable list

    Kbin

    • How the fuck do you navigate to your subscribed “magazines”? The magazines tab just shows you list of everything and going under your subscriptions shows posts from every magazine I am subscribed to instead of letting me click on the specific magazine

    “Fediverse”

    • Content propagation from other instances is slow(?) I want to subscribe to [email protected] but beehaw still can’t find it - maybe I don’t understand it well enough and it’s just a temporary issue

      your fediverse problem is because kbin.social had to temporarily defederate because its hardware couldn’t keep up with demand
