doesn't hurt my eyes, looks just as good as old.reddit, now just hopefully reddit can hurry up kick the bucket.

Iโm excited for a new experience. I only commented about 5 times my entire time on Reddit and I hoping to interact more here.
First post, liking what I'm seeing so far! Appreciate that signup here was quick/easy, had some issues on other instances.
I really like the UI. The sign up process was a little rough though. The idea of the different servers and signing up via those servers was a little jarring at first.
Couldn't agree more. I actually signed up on a difference instance a couple days ago, but never got a confirmation email or anything and thought I just had to wait for a manual process. (the instance had me answer questions they said were needed to be answered to join) I got tired of waiting and didn't know how to message anyone about it, so I just signed up here. It was super quick and easy, but the overall process is confusing for sure. Excited for the platform though, I think once you get past the learning curve it's very promising.
Yeah, Lemmy does have a rather steep learning curve, but once you are past it the platform does seem very promising as a reddit replacement.
Reddit was known to have a steep learning curve as well. Weโll get there.
Hello! Looks nice, I realize it will probably take some time to get used to, but I hope the community will grow. I mod a sub on Reddit and we are thinking about a blackout in protest, in any case it would be cool to set up shop here in the fediverse :)
The Jerboa app though could use with some improvements to navigate the different communities.
I'm a big fan of it. The website is great and I'm thankful that I can interact with posts and comments on other servers. I think for most people's adoption the picking of a server to join is intimidating because there are so many options.
To draw more users it needs to be made abundantly clear that you can interact across servers.
Iโm liking it a lot, so far!
I dunno
Thanks! It looks more like a Discourse forum than Reddit. I'll reserve judgment for now but after so many companies took their own platform usage we need something like this more than ever.
i'm just excited that i was able to make an account... lemmy.ml didn't want me. anyway, i'm just here to browse and see what i find.
I feel like I'm back in the best part of the early-mid 00s, when the entire internet was running on phpbb or some random local social networks with 500 users. I missed those, glad to be back in the new, hopefully better, interpretation of those times. Overall, it's quite nostalgic here. โค๏ธ
Just deleted all past activity from my reddit account, deactivated it and joined you marry bunch. Glad to be here.
This is my first comment here, hope I'm doing it right!
Digging it so far. The only thing that I have noticed, and this may just be due to the large influx of people coming to the site, it's been taking literal minutes for me to submit a post or edit my profile
DIGGing it
How is the federation supposed to work regarding logins? I made my initial account on lemmy.world but I'm unable to login and subscribe to communities on other federated servers. I presumed the primary server I setup on would allow me to subscribe and comment on communities on other servers?
Thanks for having us! I'm excited to try this out. I am only just trying to figure out how all of this works.
I have subscribed to several communities now, but when I go to the main page, I still see the generic content that was there before I logged in. How do I view a feed of just the communities I have subscribed to (analogous to the front page on reddit)
There should be a button to view subscribed communities at the top along with local instance communities and all known communities. You can change the default in the settings.
