Asklemmy

I'm honest, I still don't get the universe concept. I am going on the site via feddit, which is the German version, I guess? If I want to see everything, I need to go to lemmy.world? If I get an app for it, what would it route me to?

It should be fine after a while if people stay here, but for now it's still in its infancy when it comes to user friendliness, I think.

Not gonna lie it was really confusing to begin with, even with a guide. Partially because I dropped by kbin first.

Enjoying it so far. It is definitely taking some getting used to. Was testing Liftoff! And now on Memmy. Finding Memmy to be more enjoyable especially with being able to set dark for ease of visibility.

I like that its federated to prevent hierarchical abuse. I dislike the seams of that federation reducing ease of use and reducing population growth, thus reducing the size of niche "Communities" (as Lemmy generically calls them).

I need my subs so I still visit Reddit begrudgingly if only for those. Once those more niche communities grow even slightly big enough for a common back and forth though I'll probably fully abandon Reddit.

It's not bad! UI could use a few tweaks on Mobile though.

Enjoying it so far I think. It's hard to say. Smaller, less content, some of the things I followed haven't made the jump(and I don't have enough time on my hands to help jump start them).

Been using my phone a lot less to doomscroll, and other nonsense so I'vr had more time to work on some hobby projects and such.

Overall though it feels like a good replacement.

Been using Thunder through Test Floght and it’s been pretty nice. I’m sure with time it’ll get better and more populated but I don’t mind the calm right now.

I just found out how to add more…instances? I want to call them subreddits but that’s not it lol but I like it, and so far I’ve curated enough for it to keep me interested while scrolling. I do understand that everyone is still getting their footing, I definitely am, so it won’t be perfect or exactly what I want. You really gotta take time to discover and explore the feddiverse, it seems quite big.

I think if we want this space to be a great reddit alt, we gotta put the effort in making it so!

High quality content makes my scrolling more enjoyable and less depressing.

BUT vastly smaller community means it's harder to get questions answered. Reddit was my goto for all kinds of things that I have now turned to ChatGPT for.

My biggest pain point right now is the bugs. I tried posting a rather long reply to something and got a "Beehaw is down for maintenance" message. I'm not sure if it was the instance or my app (Connect), but I ended up losing the post.

Having said that, I really am enjoying my time here. People seem nice and welcoming, and engagement is good. I'm looking forward to seeing how things progress.

It is OK. Performance is a bit bumpy (expected) and communities are a lot quieter, but it is much much nicer here. Reddit is filled with absolute morons who scream SOURCE!!!!!! every time they see a joke or opinion which doesn't allign with their belief that children standing 8na. School yard deserved to die because they have the right to drive angiant car

I like it but still dealing with a bit of a learning curve. I expected some glitches and slow downs so that hasn't really bothered me. Looking forward to watching the platform evolve and take shape as I learn more.

I haven't been able to find an answer for this, so here goes... How many accounts on different instances does everyone have?

I have three and have started subscribing to different stuff to try and curate my experience (I'm missing multi-reddits), but I'm not sure what's the optimal experience as my all timelines often show very similar content on each account

As a former reddit sync app user, finding "liftoff" helped make the transition a smoother experience. I've been enjoying hunting for new communities to join and watching them grow.
