Honestly yes, at first I really thought Lemmy could replace it but the content is just bad on Lemmy’s all. The platform is good, but when 60% of posts are shitty memes or shitpost it just kills it for me. I still browse Lemmy almost every day, but I really feel like we spoiled the momentum we had a few weeks ago.
Yep, we’ll see!
I disagree with you, yes, ease of use will come for power users, but in the end it’s the diversity of people interacting with the platform that creates communities with valuable content. And to attract more people the platform needs less friction at on-boarding.
In their current state, definitely not. There is a real bubble effect browsing on Lemmy because it feels like 1 post out of 3 is just praising the platform, but I think they’re far from ready to become mainstream. I’d say there are for now 2 major problems:
-
The global instability (a lot of bugs, many third party apps, but a poor on-boarding with the main website).
-
It was made by engineers and marketed by engineers. The federated aspect should IMO be public and known, but seamless. It should be possible to just create an account and start browsing without having to do some research on how the thing works. The technical aspect of the fediverse is great, but it’s also its main drawback, I believe that hiding it for newcomers could be a way of not scaring them.
Yep I can agree on this point, you’re right.
Of course, but this is true for any political movement, even if it’s the one you’re rooting for. It’s a bit far fetched, but would you say that leftist people in Canada are strongly getting influenced by people like Bernie Sanders and AOC and that it should be considered foreign interference?
Let’s not pretend that racist or xenophobic people don’t exist in Canada. Ignoring them would be a very dangerous thing to do, Canadians don’t need external influence to be racist.
It’s a but disappointing to still not have any app on the AppStore. I know it’s a long process, but we should take advantage from the current momentum, which won’t last.
Mlem et Memmy sont de bons équivalents, mais pour l’instant les deux ne sont accessibles que via Test Flight sur iOS. J’ai demandé hier sur le souslemmy et le dev de Memmy semble prévoir soumettre une première version sur l’AppStore très bientôt.
Sinon en attendant, je conseille fortement d’utiliser https://wefwef.app c’est une PWA de base mais qui marche très bien avec un design très Apollo.
Still trying to get into Tears of the Kingdom after 50 hours. I absolutely loved BOTW but I really have trouble feeling involved with TOTK, it feels like I've already played the game. They slightly changed everything just a bit, just enough to change the gameplay feeling but not enough for me to feel the same appeal to explore the world.
How are you using the browser version? I just can't browse /all without having a new post pushing down the feed every 5 seconds I find it unusable.
J’ai lu le premier tome l’année dernière et là je vais bientôt m’attaquer au second! La bande annonce de la série m’a donné envie de continuer l’histoire. J’ai un peu d’appréhension, je lis assez lentement et c’est une bonne brique, mais je le commence bientôt!
