I really want to like lemmy, but it’s difficult. I’m new to all this fediverse thingy, and I might just have old habits and perceptions how things should work but… I keep seeing the same posts more than once, iOS experience is not that good really, sometimes I see dead posts from 2 years ago for some reason, despite having subscribed to like 30 communities there aren’t that many new posts to read.

Part of it probably that subreddits had millions of people so a lot of posts every minute, but it still feels underwhelming.

It’s not as doomscrolly. Maybe I should find something else to waste my time on haha

What is your experience with lemmy? Maybe I just do things wrong. Let me know

    It’s far from perfect, but I’m taking a stand.

    Half the reason I used Reddit was to cure boredom. I’ve decided to find other things to do. The other main reason I loved to check in was to make sure I don’t miss big news. So far, Lemmy seems to scratch that itch. It’ll take a long time for niche communities to establish, but I’ll just deal with that for now. Maybe I’ll just go back to some old forums for that purpose.
