Yeah I’m much more forgiving for this platform when it just had a crazy influx of users. In fact, I’m actively participating more because I feel like my voice matters a little bit more then it did on Reddit and I want to see this community thrive
The community sizes here at the current time definitely allow for more user to user interaction. It’s much harder for your voice to get lost in an overwhelming sea of useless comments as it tends to in the larger Reddit subs.
And I feel like there’s a lot less algorithm generated aggression. It’s nice, reminds me of reddit back in the earlier days.
The comments timed out twice for me before it would load on Jerboa. That’s just perfect. 👌
Try wefwef, it’s hands down more polished than the Lemmy web UI and Jerboa.
The meme sub is spearheading the migration!
Meme it and they will come
Using wefwef on iOS is making me feel like the migration didn’t even happen
… it’s available on ios? i couldn’t find it at the apple store.
also helps putting things into perspective when you remember that Reddit has these issues at least once every week
When I started on Reddit 14 years ago these issues would be daily or more. It was pretty unstable under load.
Can’t wait for the 3rd party app makers to come with apps so everything will get better and better
boost for lemmy soon!!
i feel so dirty going on reddit. it’s like going to mcdonalds
There are still some early adopter pain points but goddamnit I love it here.
What bugs? I dont think I’ve actually run into any bugs?
Absolutely. I will tolerate hours of downtime and indefinite periods of fuckiness, because at least it’s not Reddit. I know I’m valued here. We all are.
I extend the same consideration to the Lemmy apps as well. They’re all in various stages of development, but as buggy as they can be, they run better than the official Reddit app even now.
Lemmy is fine but it keeps showing me the same exact post in the same order like it doesn’t detect I’ve already seen a post and shows me it again when I restart the app.
Definitely getting a feel for it. It’s ALMOST the same but not quite
This sums up my experience with big instances rn… lol…
When I use local & smaller instance, it is far faster…This is hilarious. On my Desktop, which is quickly becoming my preferred interface for the moment, I just keep opening new tabs and letting it work when I post so I can move on with reading other content.
I ain’t even mad. You’ve got a good heart, soldier.
My oldest reddit account was 13 or 14 years old. I remember when reddit would go down several times a week. Growing pains are just part of the deal!
