One of my largest pain points with Lemmy is that there are multiple active communities for the same topic, causing quite a few duplicate posts to show up in my feed that is difficult to filter. Hopefully there comes some kind of solution, outside of userbase, this is (what I believe) one of the larger issues compared to Reddit.

However, I still switched over to Lemmy for my primary 'Reddit'-needs.

Piefed is a Lemmy "competitor" that actually does some sort of "multi comm" combined view type of functionality

Piefed.social

It's not mature yet, but last I heard interoperability was mostly ok, though had oddities

It helps to see communities as categories for an instance, each instance will have a different response to the same post based on the general instance vibe and culture. That's also why picking a good instance to browse locally can be pretty useful.

Yesterday was the first day that Lemmy activity tipped over the threshold, and there were too many overnight posts for me to read all of them over breakfast.

End of an era 🥲

Although usually the tide rolls back down for a while with one of these Septembers, as some newbies just don't click with their instance for whatever reasons. Still, it seems inevitable that it will tip over that threshold, and stay there, one day.

I had to switch instances 3 times before I found one I was okay with.

That's about how it went for me. This is pretty much my home instance, but I also keep an account on a more local lemmy for chatting with the townies.

Also experimenting with my own instance. Still workin out the kinks.

I will shitpost harder.

I'm doing my part!

I am ready to give up Reddit, we need more communities to move here!

Nice. Might as well leave my first comment here. Hi!

[–] cm0002@lemmy.cafe 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Welcome! We've got memes on deck at !memes@lemmy.world and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful !science_memes@mander.xyz or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like !science@mander.xyz and !astronomy@mander.xyz . !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.

We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian "communists" who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the "gold standard"), but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a .ee account so you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 49 minutes ago* (last edited 45 minutes ago)

Exactly right... cm0002. If you don't like a instance, block it with the tools given to you. Why haven't you blocked .ml if you feel so strongly about this?

Solidarity amongst the instances! We will not be divided against each other!

feudposting is cringe

Welcome all

[–] SausageWallet@lemm.ee 19 points 3 hours ago (5 children)

Is anyone else just enjoying seeing people create actual user names again and not just using the automatically generated ones reddit has done for awhile?

[–] wipe3257@programming.dev 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I use autogenerated names from Bitwarden for my usernames everywhere XD

[–] jia_tan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 38 minutes ago
