I heard about the fediverse before, but never made an account until a few days ago. It is kinda cool how Mastodon, Lemmy, and Kbin can interconnect somewhat, but it does not feel like a fleshed out feature to me yet. There are still too many bugs when interfacing with other parts of the fediverse.
I like how maluable it feels right now. I really feel like if I dedicate a bit of time and effort I can make changes to and improve things. Or at the least break off and do my own thing that interacts with the fediverse.
I don't like how spread out and small all the communities feel. I think piracy has 5 different communities at this point. I am also torn on not having at least a centralized login. I kinda trust sh.itjust.works with my account, but there is little assurance that the instance, and my account on it, won't just disappear or attempt to do something malicious with my email and password.
I want Lemmy to take off and I think it has potential, but I also believe it will take at least another year before I am completely satisfied with it.
Not having a centralized login is a downside for me. Not a dealbreaker but I definitely donβt like it
I don't really understand this complaint. It's the same as an e-mail account? You log in to your instance and don't need a log in anywhere else, you just post / reply on whatever you want from your instance.
