Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)

Had some issues getting an account with loading going infinitely until approved, which is just confusing as a new user as there was no notification about it timing out, and almost led to some duplication by accident. But so far it has actually been pretty smooth other than that, I like the UI and the community focus a lot.

Really liking the simplicity and distributed nature of the platform. Woot!

What lemmy instance should I use? I registered lemmy.ml but I heard it’s very political. Should I change?

My only confusion or concern so far is duplicate communities amongst diff servers.

The apps are still young. Wefwef’s save button is broken sometimes. Mlem doesn’t have a search, but it does have a weird text box that does nothing. Links in both open a post in an embedded web browser that I’m not signed in in. That being said, it shows great promise and I’m excited to watch us grow.
