As Lemmy starts maturing, there starts being so many communities out there that it's pretty hard to keep track. I've been browsing for about a month now, here's a list of popular communities I've subscribed to that others would find interesting!

Not many of these were noticeable while browsing communities so you may have missed some of these. I've roughly ranked these based on which I'd spend the most time on in each category.

Also note that I would add Kbin communities as well, but federation between Lemmy and Kbin is still not working well, so right now this post is for Lemmy communities only!

Which is stupid imho. I don't want to sub to 10 different /c/movies or even 2 different /c/nba. Mark my words you're going to see a consolidation here if this takes off and you're going to lose the federation appeal that people want (I couldn't care less just want a Reddit alternative). Already I've unsubbed from communities to simply sub to the biggest one.

Let's also ignore there's an open issue from 2 years ago because no one apparently thought or cared of the scenario that some of us actually like a unified identity online and yet you can't port your account across the fediverse.

If it is so important for you to be so much outraged, I guess it is time for you to either learn to code and open a PR, or to pay someone to do it for you!

I know how to code don't have the time. It's potential I may look into it. Doesn't change the fact that it's two glaring issues that weren't thought through and there's many more that have been brought up.

I get that you're angry the new thing doesn't work exactly the same as the thing you were used to. But take a deep breath, and remember they are in fact different things with their own pros and cons. Everything's changing at a rapid rate. Some features you want will make it in, some features you want probably won't, but there are ways to respectfully make and contribute to feature requests and have some small part in guiding the project in the direction you'd like to see.

Who's angry? Lol. Concerned.
