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!
I think I’m getting the hang of it, I’m just concerned it won’t ever get to the point of having as many in depth communities as Reddit, because that’s what I like most about Reddit
This is just gonna be a wait and see. Depends on how many people actually make the switch. I just jumped over from Reddit, hoping this catches on!
I do too, but I feel like it won’t because the whole federated thing makes it a bit difficult to grasp and seems very fragmented overall. Right now lemmy has less users than a single “small” subreddit. We’ll have to wait.
