I'm a fan of it so far. It's slower paced at the moment and I feel like I can keep up with a smaller number of communities.

I'm enjoying it more than reddit for the time being for the same reason I enjoyed reddit before it was commercialized. The slight technical barrier to entry is keeping the braindead out for now.
Kind of a catch 22 though, because you need to have some of the idiots to flesh out the population. Time will tell.
I dislike how in the app there's no functional inline image/video viewer, at least on my end (unsure if it's not working on my end or its just something everyone lives with).
Quality username
Ahaha thanks
I'm strongly, strongly tempted to go on an angry rant about the unusability of the front page jumping around constantly. I'm thinking of donating in order to help out, because I love the idea of a federated forum/news aggregator. Is this a new bug, or something?
So far I'm enjoying the mobile interface on the website more than using jerboa. It'd be nice to get more random stuff on my feed while in ALL view, but I'm not sure if it's because of the instance I'm on or just that there's not much activity. It just makes it harder to find new communities if I've got to go hunting for them. Sometimes I like to see things I hadn't previously thought about, it's more fun to get the random stuff like that.
Signed up today, liking it a lot. Looking forward to learning more about it, seems like a viable reddit alternative.
I like it. I prefer the UI plus it's really refreshing to browse some similar communities i also browse on reddit and not seeing that many memes.
It's been pretty fun! I'm looking forward to what's to come!
There's a lot to learn. Luckily I have lots of time. So far I dig it
Loving it. It’s clunky, sure, but honestly, it’s fine given how much work it takes to get something like this to work well at scale. Things will evolve and I’m sure instancing, finding communities, mobile app etc etc, will all get figured out. Once there’s enough momentum in usage, that’ll naturally become the driving force behind a lot of the work that needs to happen.
I’m just glad that we already have the user base and passion behind an alternative. I’m more than happy with not having the volume, but having the quality of what contributed to reddit, i.e. the people. In the meantime, please be sure to donate folks.
Creating sublemmies hangs forever it seems. I was able to create one on day one of the reckoning, but not anymore.
Also, I thought Lemmy was broken but for whatever reason it performs badly in Firefox but Chrome works okay. I don't like this because I hate Chrome/Google but it isn't clear what the issue is in Firefox. I have NoScript, Ublock, etc. there so likely plugins
i'm loving it! it scratches the itch without the reddit ick 🤣
Getting a bit more used to it after some hours of use. Using the site is mostly self-explanatory, especially if you're used to Reddit, Discord and Mastodon. Looks promising.
I do see a lot of potential but there are some issues I'm facing. For some reason, I'm unable to login to lemmy.world from my phone. There's not a whole lot of content but I'm expecting that to change. It's very nice here, overall.
I'd really prefer to have the option to make it look/feel like old.reddit. The biggest reason I'm off reddit right now is because I'm concerned the third-party appsassination is going to make them think they can kill off old.reddit, too. Coming over here where it's just aping new.reddit kinda defeats the purpose.
I love lemmy, way more than Reddit. I was already excited about the fediverse with mastodon and I absolutely love seeing another use case for it.
I was barely active on reddit, and very new to kbin/lemmy and I like the until now. I am pretty active on mastodon, I can see the added value.
I quite like the super-minimal interface design of fedia.io. I'm excited to see where this all goes.
