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

    Honestly my issue with Mastodon is the lack of any algorithm whatsoever. I know algorithm is often seen as a bad word, but even just a simple upvote and interaction based thing would be nice to make cool posts more visible. I like that Lemmy has this like Reddit. For me Lemmy has been much more successful in replacing Reddit than Mastodon was in replacing Twitter.
