I really want to like lemmy, but it’s difficult. I’m new to all this fediverse thingy, and I might just have old habits and perceptions how things should work but… I keep seeing the same posts more than once, iOS experience is not that good really, sometimes I see dead posts from 2 years ago for some reason, despite having subscribed to like 30 communities there aren’t that many new posts to read.

Part of it probably that subreddits had millions of people so a lot of posts every minute, but it still feels underwhelming.

It’s not as doomscrolly. Maybe I should find something else to waste my time on haha

What is your experience with lemmy? Maybe I just do things wrong. Let me know

    You don’t have to find an instance for X, just a community. Go to the communities tab and search for ‘plants’ and see what comes uob. It’ll show the communities in your instance and then in other instances. Click onntnem subscribe its all connected.

    Then on your Frontpage there is a tab on top between Subscribed, Local, All.

    Subscribed shows posts from everything you subscribed only. Local is posts from your instance only All is posts from all instances federated.
