So far half the posts are about Reddit. So that part sucks. Lemmy is very complicated compared to Reddit. I don't think large groups will be able to migrate here until a easy-mode app comes along to make it user friendly(er).
Yeah, I would say I'm kind of struggling here. I can't figure out how to block communities I don't want to see. I can't figure out how to find communities I would like to be a part of. Currently my feed is full of stuff like bean memes and foreign languages. Which, said feed doesn't really seem to move at all.
It doesn't have ads though, and I know I'll eventually get stuff figured out. But currently, I don't feel like I'm getting much actual use out of it.
If you mean your read posts stay there forever, go to settings > hide read posts. So much better.
