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

    Damn some communities are huge and extremely participated. Such as the Gaming community (I don’t remember the instance 🤓) - I’ve reached more than 170 upvotes and more than 150 long and articulated comments regarding how fucked up battle royale games are. I feel like there’s more of a human sense here than reddit, where people are more focused on the quality of the shit they consume

      There’s a huge influx of content, just in topics I’m not very interested into (like tech news and memes). I liked the cozier subreddits where you could have a discussion in lighter topics (like pockets vs purses in trans subreddits). People seem more patient around here, though.
