Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)

I greatly dislike the UI. Makes for a bad UX.

Unfortunately, the UI source is not approachable to me (despite being very familiar with web tech). Theming documentation is not there yet either.

As far as content goes, it's still niche, so amount and usefulness varies a lot between communities and overall. But I've liked it in principle, posted comments, and found interesting links/infos.

Well, i've created account on sopuli.xyz,had some fun, and now it's unreachable.

Might be overloaded since a lot of people are trying out Lemmy.

[โ€“] Hagarashi8@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah, most likely. Also, admins of sopuli had a lot less resources than on this instance, so maybe that also payed it's role.

Feddit browse should have an option to be a sortable list.

It feels very exciting to be here! It's a lot more open and customizable than other social media. I really hope that this is a small glimpse of what the future of the internet could be.

I'm liking the platform, but it could use more niche subs. Doesn't matter what it is, I can always assume that there exists a subreddit for everything. I hope to see lemmy get there one day.

First comment :) Researching about self-hosting a personal instance now...
