SPOOSER
I got to the school in Pokemon Scarlet and couldn’t continue the game. The world feels almost like a massive Super Mario 64 world and it’s super disheartening. I’ve decided the future of Pokemon is in the hands of the fans to make good games. What do you like about this new generation of Pokemon?
All governments should be able to be criticized if we’re going to be honest about having genuinely open discussions.
A lot of people in this thread are missing the point. Yes, there are explanations to how to use the fediverse but what this individual is lamenting is that it’s so confusing that it took them two days to get to the point of posting for help, whereas on Reddit it would have taken them 10 minutes. The steep learning curve is going to stifle the growth of lemmy.
An argument can be made that those who are unwilling to learn the way that the fediverse works are important because it’s simply a process of “weeding out” individuals to keep the communities great. I would argue that this argument fails to understand the point of the fediverse altogether, that if you don’t like one community there are plenty of others that can be moderated to your particular standards. Also, if individuals are unable to learn Lemmy quickly enough to begin using it, they’ll simply go to one of the corporate-owned social media sites. There needs to be a way for Lemmy to help new users integrate easier, rather than them having to create posts like this asking the community how to simply subscribe to a page they want to browse. Lemmy is amazing and I’ve really enjoyed it and am excited for its prospects, but it’s got a long way to go in terms of user-friendliness before it can truly become what we all want it and know it can be- a viable alternative to corporate-owned social media.
