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!

Jerboa kind of sucks in that you can't fold comment chains. Very annoying. I should probably contribute rather than complaining though lol.

Thanks for the visual example. I was also looking for this functionality and was about to ask, but I just figured it out.

For anyone confused, you tap and hold down on the top part of a comment next to the commenter's name and it should collapse that chain.

Personally I would prefer just tapping on the colored lines on the left side, at least that's what I'm used to.
