I like it too.

But the app really needs some improvement (I know it's still in alpha, but the typing glitches make it really annoying to type)

But so far it's been good and I see good potential in it.

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.

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.

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!

It's quiet in here, I know this will take time.

Is there an app I can use in my phone? I am using mastodon at time, but it's harder for discovery purposes.

I quite like the super-minimal interface design of fedia.io. I'm excited to see where this all goes.

i'm loving it! it scratches the itch without the reddit ick 🤣

The registration process for an account is annoying: Having to look into email and having to explain how you are not a bot ... I guess? Also I can not imagine this scale well, if every registration request is checked by a human. Is there no better solution?

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 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.

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

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.

Not speaking of app features, only thing missing are people... Which is a problem that will fix itself as time goes on and more people migrate to Lemmy.

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

There's a lot to learn. Luckily I have lots of time. So far I dig it

I understand how federation works, and Lemmy's UI seems more or less fine, but I guess I'm still not quite sold on federation in this style being the answer for Reddit-like functionality. It's a bit awkward, and unlike how Twitter's functionality is quite easily mimicked by Mastodon, I'm still kind of skeptical that following subreddit equivalents in that fashion maps quite as cleanly.

I'm not sure how I would do it differently, but I get the sense that there is a better way to have a decentralized Reddit-like experience, and probably one that avoids the risks of the current method (downtime, discoverability, scaling costs for the largest instances, etc).

I'll stick around the fediverse for now, but I really get the sense that it was built for a Twitter or maybe Tumblr like experience, and the Reddit-like experience will always feel a bit short of ideal.

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.

I LOVE the interface here

It's a start. I have lots of issues, but I'm willing to let them go in the hope that it will work itself out in time.
