Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)

So far so good! I think I'm on the early upswing part of the learning curve. I was just allowed into the instance I wanted to be a part of, and I'm hoping to carve some fuck around time out of work over the next couple of days to figure the bits out that feel somewhat awkward to me still.

So far, my experience has been pretty painless. Took about a day to really get used to. Its not nearly as big as Reddit, but I kind of like that.

I was in so many niche places that I think it'll be hard to really find somewhere to connect with.

Posting/commenting has been hit or miss. Seems to hang a lot.

Just joined and other than the app being kinda slow I can get used to this.

Longtime Rif user posting from Jerboa. Seems pretty cool so far. The issue I've seen is some upvotes and comments not showing when viewed from a different instance.

There's definitely a learning curve. How steep, I have not determined yet.

[–] internet_user@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Pretty great honestly. I've found almost all the "subs" I'm interested in, and the community has been very nice. There's a few small things I'd like to see (UI improvements, 2FA (coming next patch), etc), but those will come in time :)

Liking it so far. Found some great communities and have enjoyed it. :)
