I joined Reddit seventeen years ago because of Aaron Swartz’s involvement. Lemmy feels more like someplace Swartz would have liked than Reddit ever did.

I love it, but I do wish you could stretch the layout to the full width of your monitor.

Also, og:images doesn't show up when you're posting links.

It's taken a little getting used to, but it isn't too difficult to learn. Agree with loving the simplicity; just wondering if there's a way for us to customize the styling/colors? Also for some reason the votes on posts keep cycling through random numbers, lol

Really can't complain though since it takes a lot of money and time to build stuff like this.

All I'm missing right now is sorting (comments at least) by new, top or best etc

Its pretty decent, pleasantly surprised. I needed to get over the fediverse jargon after that smooth sailin'. Feels goood

I like the design. Not so much a fan of the lag, but I'm hoping that improves.

I'm not used to the light mode, haha. I hope there's a dark version soon. But overall, it seems like a nice site so far. Edit: Found it, lol. So now it's easier on the eyes!

My first hour here...gonna take a little getting used to but I like it so far. Much as I was addicted to reddit, a change is probably a good thing. I'm gonna really miss my saved posts once I delete them though

I wish the layout was more responsive. When I look at it on desktop it still looks formatted for a phone.

It's been taking like 20-30 seconds to submit a comment or post.

I hope there is some way to implement something like streamable/imgur/redgifs on lemmy. I don't mind if it's these services if fediverse alternatives aren't there yet.

They form the backbone of content creation, from Porn to highlight clips of sports subreddits.

It's interesting.

I'm not sure on the interface, though I'm sure I'll get used to it. 😅

Really fragmented, but really good.

I dont really like UI, its one of the things that will make me go back to Reddit

I'm currently using the web mobile version, and tbh it is already way better than Reddit version lol.

Also trying tildes, but lemmy seems more like what I'm looking for. Like the ui!

It's been taking a bit of tweaking since I decided to host my own instance, but when it works it's fantastic. Feels like the social media of 10 years ago.

I think there's a lot of room for enhancing the user experience, but it's definitely not bad. This will come in time.

I feel like the content and discussion is a bit more mature than reddit. This is the main reason I will stay here.

frontend is bootstrap as fuck lol, but it does the job

The page is jumping around some on Safari for iPad, but I'm sticking with it for now.

As an iOS user on safari, where is the damn “back” button!? I end up reading then having to return to the main menu and re-scroll down. Is this a lacking feature or am I just an idiot?
