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

    I am also new here and I am a long time lurker, 2008, from the place that shall not be named.

    My initial feel is that Lemmy is very much like pre Digg days and a kin to the traditional style forum boards where discussions aren’t old news when the post is only 12 hrs old.

    This is a breath of fresh air even with the growing pains I expect may come with the sudden influx of refugees.
