Feels a bit similar to moving to Mastodon from Twitter. easier to browse here than finding people to follow on Mastodon though
error loading comment
When I add this site to my Home Screen it afterwards loads as a PWA. Is there a way to add the site without it loading as PWA? I just want it to open as a tab in safari.
I'm trying to understand it still. I understand you can visit communities from any other instance, but are communities shared between them? I mean, if there's an r/NFL in lemmy.world, can lemmy.ml also contain an r/NFL and would those two be two different things?
So far the mobile site is way better than Reddit. I feel like Reddit was always humping my leg trying to get me to install their shitty app.
I also really like the federated aspect, but I do agree with others in that I fear this may be too confusing for the average user and it won't catch on.

That is such a low bar tho. The Reddit mobile site is the only thing worse than the official app.
It's got late 2000s Reddit vibes, which I like. I had to remove the Reddit browser bookmark because I suddenly realized I was browsing it again and must have opened it subconsciously. I'm trying to stay here dammit lol.
I feel kinda dumb.. I truly did not get the whole fediverse thing and panicked trying to guess where most of us refugees would go, I made an account on mastadon, kbin.social, karab.in, lemmy.world and maybe a few more I now cannot recall, all same username as my Reddit account.. I assume now that was overkill? I hope there is a way I can merge them all together at some point.. and Oddly enough, this was my last instance(? That's what lemmy.world is right?) that feels less confusing than all the previous ones I tried..
Growing pains but in time I think this whole fediverse thing will grow on me!
I just got here, figuring things out slowly
I am happy whenever there is a fresh start. Brings out the flaws of my old ways.
Question: is the "lag" from hitting the post button to seeing the post intentional or is that just a sign of stressed servers?
Honestly I'm glad that reddit is going down the tubes. It's time for a change.

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.
