I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?
I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!
Yes, if what you mean by “not sharing accounts” is that your user account is only able to be signed into from the instance you registered on. This is an issue because it means your account is tied to an instance, and if that instance goes down, so does your content. Lemmy is working to implement account migration between instances (Mastodon already has this feature rolled out), to fix this concern.
There’s a github issue for that: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/506
Does you content go down or just your ability to log in again?
