I’m an example of a filthy casual reddit user who is really struggling to find value in lemmy. Finding an instance where local is of value is difficult, world may as well be “everything”, and “everything” is a nightmarish hodgepodge of memes for teenagers, furry porn, really niche technical discussions, and star Trek memes. I never stay in the app longer than a few minutes and I feel like I spend more time blocking weird porn communities than I do reading interesting articles.

The other major issue is having to sort through the exact same article 60 times because people cross post not only to local communities but then also the same communities are duplicated on every instance. I’m probably going to abandon this soon unless I can find some kind of curated community list to subscribe to or something.

The issues are way overblown. I have a mid tier system as best (2070S 8700k) and with the DLSS mod and some performance tweaks I play on Ultra.

Edit: down vote all you want losers you’re still wrong.

I would if lemmy was even close to an actual replacement.

I’m told it was a woman.

If I wanted to that still doesn’t mean I am obligated to be a landlord.

Yes. Lemmy still sucks and everybody who isn’t in niche communities knows it. Lemmy is the same article spammed across 100 communities cross posted again across 100 instances, memes for teenagers, and Star Trek memes apparently.

Do you copy and paste comments from reddit? I read this exact comment last night I am SURE of it

They’re already using it as a house.

I have a finished basement. I could fit a bed down here. Am I somehow obligated to let somebody live here? You sound like a teenager.

It took a decade to get a decent sub list for me on reddit. Trying to duplicate it on Lemmy doesn’t work because communities are either tiny, duplicates (or moderates poorly so they may as well be duplicates, ie “news” “politics” and “us news” are just the same thing spamming the same articles), or non existent. I’d like a good sub list but it’s a sort of 'where so I even start".

Wat

I mean, yea, there isn’t nearly as much interesting content. And with the way the “Everything” sort works you end up seeing the same thing 100 times across the 100 different similar subreddits each instance has. Honestly lemmy kind of sucks as a reddit replacement. Trying to find the next option.
