Today marks my first day on lemmy after leaving Reddit after 3 years, I already like the platform I just wish their was a mobile app, and wish the mobile web support was a bit more polished but i understand it’s still in it’s earlier stages

    gotta understand lemmy is still a beta, and has a lot of potential moving forward. Although you are right about reddit having a better UX and web-design, but subs come with users, the more users the subs. Adoption only happens with pioneers. But one field lemmy does do good is privacy as it’s decentralized and soon to be connected to fediverse

      Well said!
      Personally I think lemmy managed quite well to keep their politics under soft-wraps so to speak. The “empire” conspiracies rarely end up on front-page. I think of all reddit clones Lemmy has the best chance and it’s nice to see it unfold!

      I hope the maintainers find the strength to continue with this and launch federation soon — that’ll be huge for the platform. I really liked Prismo but it never managed to launch federation support, hopefully Lemmy managed to cross this step.

      Regarding UX I already wrote few greasemonkey improvements that make it a much better experience. I see few issues on github already but it seems to be low priority so maybe I should make my scripts sharable with other users 🤔

        I don’t understand why we should revive smtp Yes, everybody have an email, but it’s not designed for instant messaging.
