I honestly do not mind it one but. I quite like the interface. It’s minimal but there are some bugs to it which is to be expected. I really do like the overall design of it though. There isn’t too much going on. It’s like old Reddit which I am a big fan of

I LOVE the interface here

[–] generalpotato@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Loving it. It’s clunky, sure, but honestly, it’s fine given how much work it takes to get something like this to work well at scale. Things will evolve and I’m sure instancing, finding communities, mobile app etc etc, will all get figured out. Once there’s enough momentum in usage, that’ll naturally become the driving force behind a lot of the work that needs to happen.

I’m just glad that we already have the user base and passion behind an alternative. I’m more than happy with not having the volume, but having the quality of what contributed to reddit, i.e. the people. In the meantime, please be sure to donate folks.

Getting a bit more used to it after some hours of use. Using the site is mostly self-explanatory, especially if you're used to Reddit, Discord and Mastodon. Looks promising.

I do see a lot of potential but there are some issues I'm facing. For some reason, I'm unable to login to lemmy.world from my phone. There's not a whole lot of content but I'm expecting that to change. It's very nice here, overall.

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

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.

Its pretty decent, pleasantly surprised. I needed to get over the fediverse jargon after that smooth sailin'. Feels goood

[–] Dick_Justice@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think it's fun and has tons of potential. I really enjoy learning new things though.

I like it very much, i miss some more options, but the first impression is damn good and i’m happy.

I feel like the algorithm is weighted too strongly towards upvoted posts. I know there are new ones out there, but I opened my app this morning to see everything is from 17 hours ago.

It took me about 30 mins of getting used to the idiosyncrasies and the bugs (btw people most of the bugs are issues in github, go vote or comment!). Once I did I have been happy as a clam.

this is more fun than reddit has been in years!

Quite nice.

[–] RandomBanana@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I like the community. I'm hoping that Lemmy doesn't turn into the cesspool that parts of Reddit became. I do have to refresh the page to see my posts and comments, but I imagine that there are some functional difficulties with scaling the platform to accommodate all of the people coming from Reddit.

As someone who always felt very overshadowed on Reddit, I'm looking forward to contributing more here.

[–] Mrremrem@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Just migrated my account here. Honestly it's getting a lot bigger here than what I've expected. Always lurked around Reddit, but I wouldn't mind changing my route over here.
