  • Discovery really has been the biggest drawback for me. The r/system combined with wikis and sidebars made it very easy to find interesting things.

    That’s lacking in lemmy so far. Which, it isn’t a bad thing, barriers to entry have benefits. But from a user perspective, trying to replace reddit, the difficulty in navigating and finding things is frustrating.

    But I’m coming from reddit, and they aren’t meant to be the same. The issues are part of what makes it next to impossible for what happened there to happen in a federated system. And I’m so fucking sick of corporate bullshit ruining good things . I figure that lemmy will catch up in feature parity soon enough, and there’s bound to be apps that make it easier to use at some point.

    I just wish I had the resources to run a server myself.




  • Being real? I’m okay with that.

    I’m about as far left as it gets without trying to arm the workers for taking control of the means of production. But I’m in favor labor arming itself.

    But I get along fine with right wingers when they’re not jerks. Like, believe what you want, but treat people well. And not everyone on the right of American politics is batshit crazy. There’s the extreme right, and the slightly less extreme right, and then there’s the folks that don’t buy into is as identity.

    I can enjoy the company of the latter.

    A separate fediverse keeps the crazies in one spot where the rest of the world can keep an eye on them.
