Wow, there was a whole conversation beneath my comment and neither lemmy.world nor the Jerboa app gave me any kind of indication that someone had replied to me. God, Lemmy fucking sucks.

This is Lemmy's greatest weakness, in my opinion. It's too decentralized. I want one place (Lemmy) to go to for everything about my topics of interest. Everyone keeps explaining it as "lemmy.world is like Reddit and lemmy.ml is like Twitter." No. No it's not. It's all Lemmy. It's just that there are multiple Lemmys, each with their own separate sections for each topic, and anyone can make a new Lemmy at any time. That's a problem. I don't want to become part of a community, no matter how big and popular it becomes, only to find out that there is a better one on a different Lemmy server and I've been wasting my time this whole time. This just means that if Lemmy were set up properly then that better community would have been the one that I would have found because it is easy to find and the website design lends itself to finding relevant topics of interest. Right now Lemmy is so frustrating to use. It looks worse than Old Reddit and is less user friendly than New Reddit. Lemmy will never see the popularity or usefulness that Reddit has had if it stays decentralized like this. Imagine asking your friend where on Twitter they found an interesting post and they reply, "No, no, it's not on Twitter 35, it's on Twitter 83." That's dumb as hell. We don't need multiple Reddits, multiple Twitters, or multiple Lemmys.

Uhhhh... Every single one. You can easily Google it, and chances are you will find a forum post about it somewhere because everyone uses Windows. Windows even has a multi billion dollar international company providing 24/7 support for it, for free. If you have a problem with Linux, good fucking luck finding help with it.
