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!

I have a terrible experience on mobile. I'm literally only on desktop because I was ready to delete my account. It's extremely unintuitive, Lemur doesn't work for lemmy.world and the other app is confusing to use. :/

True, mobile experience is truly terrible and must be prioritized imo

I bet there are some app developers out there that could repurpose their newly unusable apps. LIF can be better then RIF was.

if you're on Android there is an app for Lemmy called Jerboa which is working well for me (and also just released a new update with a ton of additions/fixes!). You can use the app to connect to any lemmy instance.

Not only is it a good app, its the native one! I use it from lemmy.world right now!
