Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I initially felt the same way after a day or so of use, however once I got the app and figured out the clunkyness and rough edges it's really grown on me.
You're definitely right about discoverability but you're probably comparing this to Reddit that's had like 15 years to mature and sort it all out. Lemmy is made by like 2 developers for free and it's pretty impressive already what they've achieved.
I think if you give it more time and lower your expectations a little you'll appreciate it more. And you don't have to leave Reddit or whatever either, you can just use both and see what happens too.
