I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?

I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!

    It’s gonna take a while for the chaos of everyone migrating from Reddit to die down and for the place to become useable.

    Also, Lemmy seems to have the same annoying friction Masto has where it’s too easy to get redirected to another instance’s webpage. You suddenly can’t comment, like, or basically do anything and it’s not immediately obvious why.

    Once again suggesting federated social media start using a centralized frontend on one single website and just let the servers themselves be federated. You would go to the same one website, ex lemmy.com and log into your chosen instance, staying logged in even if you visit another instance.
