I like the jerboa app on mobile but I dislike the desktop site layout. I've used Shine for Reddit for years for the grid layout. I'm hoping someone will eventually release custom layouts to make use of all the space on desktop. The content is about the same after subscribing to lots of communities.

I like it! I especially like that you don't even need to make a separate account to interact with the communities on there! (I'm literally commenting from a custom fork of glitch-soc right now) That alone makes Lemmy better than any normal Forum out there.
Edit: doesn't appear that Lemmy handles content warnings in replies
You have :vim: in your user's "tags" (flair? desc? Idk). I haven't found a good vim community on Lemmy, so I'm interested if you have a recommendation.
I guess that would make "community discovery" as a particular thing I'm having some difficulty with. Getting better as I'm getting more familiar with everything, but it is a pain point
I like it. I can see myself being a long-term user here, in fact I plan to be. However, I'm experiencing a lot of timeouts and lag, I know it's not on my end. I'm not techie enough to know the reason this happens, but Im pretty sure that it won't adopt mainstream users until it runs smoother.
honestly I hope it stays this active. fediverse feels more at home to someone whos been on the internet since before it was so centralised, something like this feels like a good mix. lots of different decentralized sites able to communicate with eachother, rather than just one site holding everyone hostage. mastodon never really took off too big but I hope lemmy can make it happen.
Frankly I'm happy Mastodon didn't become the leader in the fediverse. My main paint point with twitter was how the character limit really stifled long form discussion. Much more nuanced, complex conversations can be held here since we're not chained to 250 characters.
I always thought the original idea of witter was to share an interesting link with a headline. You know, like this:
Pi-hole FTL v5.23, Web v5.20 and Core v5.17 released https://pi-hole.net/blog/2023/05/28/pi-hole-ftl-v5-23-web-v5-20-and-core-v5-17-released/
If you’re trying to have a meaningful conversation about the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything, it’s going to feel very awkward trying post your ideas one sentence at a time.
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
