Lemmings should refer to the users

Thanks, it worked. I see a 100 counting down with each image I create. Will it get replenished automatically?

You weren’t kidding about the time! What’s nice is that I don’t need to sign up. Thank you!

I just tried it, and it’s not as good as the others, but it’s not nightmarish.

If it’s timing out, it seems to only do it on this instance. Beehaw and sh.itjust.works are doing fine with hot rank

btw, I’m seeing the upvotes range anywhere from 4 to 322. What’s going on here?

That might not be a good user experience. May be all signup buttons randomly take them to a different instance to signup based on the load?

The problem is the friction. I tried to bring over one of my favorite subreddits here. Here’s the response from one person who tried to sign up.

"Just tried Lemmy and it left me with a very bad impression.

I signed up and tried to login, after giving my username and password, the screen is stuck at the loading state.

Tried reloading the tab and login again, got the same issue.

I had to open my email, confirm the link from the mail there, and then login to resolve the issue. This is the usual approach for signup on any service, but nowhere on the Lemmy site it was mentioned to check and verify the link sent to my email.

I had the same issue with Mastodon too (tried it when most people ditched Twitter and moved there).

And a really frustrating thing for me on Lemmy site is, I can’t open a post on a new tab. If I open a post to see comments and came back, the feed refreshes.

I don’t think Lemmy is going to have huge communities like Reddit (it would be the same case as Mastodon)."

Now it’s nothing big, and people don’t realize it’s like this mainly because it’s a small site that is growing rapidly, but they don’t want to go through the pains.
