The problem I always have with off brand / mass produced beans (Aldi, other supermarkets' own brands, Amazon...) is that they're usually burnt to shit, literally acrid smelling and dark af. Maybe some people are into that?

I don't know whether it's just all coming out of the same factory or they're all trying to cover up inferior beans but none of them have heard of light or medium roast apparently, even when it says that on the packet.

Maybe? I thought I read that to search for communities across all instances you have to use some external website that indexed them all (can't remember the name)

I've been thinking about setting up my communities based on what I used to follow on Reddit but honestly, I get about 30 seconds to browse at a time and it's too much of a mental hurdle to be like ok...I need to go to what site was it? And I need to keep going back to my Reddit subreddit list, then search for every subreddit on [whatever that site was] then go to the app and paste some URL in... All of this is a pain in the arse on mobile and if it's not the sort of thing I can do in a minute or two then it's not going to get done.

Maybe someone will write a service that lets you enter your Reddit username and it just auto-searches for the closest matching community for each subreddit you are subscribed to and auto-adds them to your Lemmy account

That makes sense, and if you're talking about being purely read only, it can all be cached relatively cheaply
