I really want to like lemmy, but it’s difficult. I’m new to all this fediverse thingy, and I might just have old habits and perceptions how things should work but… I keep seeing the same posts more than once, iOS experience is not that good really, sometimes I see dead posts from 2 years ago for some reason, despite having subscribed to like 30 communities there aren’t that many new posts to read.

Part of it probably that subreddits had millions of people so a lot of posts every minute, but it still feels underwhelming.

It’s not as doomscrolly. Maybe I should find something else to waste my time on haha

What is your experience with lemmy? Maybe I just do things wrong. Let me know

I also dislike that it’s “live”. I’ll be browsing the post titles and new stuff would appear on top so I lose my place.

Is there any way to prevent that? I’ll be reading a post title and everything shifts out from under me constantly.

I have no idea. The other person who replied said that it’s a bug, but they deleted their comment. I set my view to default on Local/Hot at the moment. “All” moves too fast for me, and I’m not in the mood yet to curate my subscriptions.
