We are not YPTB. If you have a problem with the way an instance or community is run, then take it up over at !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com.
- Addendum: Yes we know that you think ml/hexbear/grad are tankies and or .world are a bunch of liberals but it gets old quickly. Try and come up with new material.
This is not the place to start flamewars between Lemmy, Mbin and Piefed.

Yet even i find the verse frustrating. Discoverability is near non existent, searching is hard, many instances just have duplicate content for popular topics

I find the ability to filter for communities both on Lemmy and Piefed, as a new user, to be far better than Reddit. Community owners can change the name of a community for increase its visibility, you can organise by activity. Especially with Piefed 1.2.

Piefed has some great features for discoverability, like feeds, but afaik every fedi reddit clone still suffers from the problem that someone from your instance has to subscribe to a remote community before it shows up at all. So if everyone just picks an instance and sticks with it, the federation never happens. It also promotes a more centralized fediverse because more populated instances will both be more likely to have a local community for a topic and to have at least one user subscribe to any given remote community.

As an individual, it's difficult/impossible to keep up with everything or to discover new things because there is no true r/all equivalent. You'd need to browse multile instances or use external tools regularly to check on fediverse activity.
