I honestly do not mind it one but. I quite like the interface. It’s minimal but there are some bugs to it which is to be expected. I really do like the overall design of it though. There isn’t too much going on. It’s like old Reddit which I am a big fan of

It's fucking lit in here. Also fuck Spez.

[–] A_Drusas@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I am finding it to be very clunky.

[–] manitcor@lemmy.intai.tech 7 points 2 years ago

def needs a number of UI fixes, though I remember when reddit was a mess and so was OSS in general.

OSS now runs 1/2 of your operating systems and most of your servers.

Can we disable the auto "refreshing" that add new post when we scrolling the home screen?

I like the simple, 'clean' looking format. I wouldn't say no to a dark mode option but otherwise I think it's ideal. It's restful because it's not too visually busy.

Edit: Found the dark mode option, yay!

For me there is too much whitespace. I want a compact view. It's mostly about text anyway. Buttons could be more prominent.

But in general it's awesome. Finally dipping toes into the fediverse!

I am trying to adjust to this format. I am used to old.reddit and RES. But, I'm going to give it a go. I imagine once I get a few sub... sublemmies? going It will start to smooth out for me.

And hey, good luck to everyone on the adjustment period.

Just migrated my account here. Honestly it's getting a lot bigger here than what I've expected. Always lurked around Reddit, but I wouldn't mind changing my route over here. I'm just happy that everyone gets to experience a free and open source alternative :)

[–] Variden3301@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

It is like wild west to me and I like it!!

[–] Kayzels@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I haven't been here for too long, but it's not bad. I actually like that the community is not too big. It feels satisfying to actually be able to get to the end of the comments. Still learning the ropes, though.

[–] OBI@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Still definitely needs some polish on the UI / UX front, as well as a more seamless experience for new users. But overall I can definitely see the potential!

[–] Calvin@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Think I'm still trying to get my head around it all, such as trying to join new communities. Trying to take my time to read through guides and such, but so far it's been good!

[–] joelthelion@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I love it! I love the energy of everyone trying to figure out what the future will be. And it feels good to be out of this corporate dystopia that reddit has become.

[–] Spectator@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Hello. I moved to Reddit with the Digg Exodus, and now I'm here. History does repeat itself.

I like Lemmy a lot! I'm gonna stick around :)

[–] blade_imaginato@lemmy.one 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm liking it so far, I've been trying to explore other instances other than lemmy.one but, the login always turns into an infinite loading screen.

Your username is perfect.

[–] CMDR_Jessie@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

It's a breath of fresh air after using Reddit for so many years.

[–] ActuallyASeal@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (6 children)

The UI is just a bit janky and buggy on mobile. The amount up votes is constantly changing as I type this comment. I also think I might of reported this post twice just while trying to scroll.

I do like the size of the communities through.

I'm liking lemmy on Android with Jerboa, no major issues.

Moreover, I have been able to subscribe to several communities on different instances.

It is taking shape as we use and improve it.

[–] Frederic@beehaw.org 6 points 2 years ago

I'm mostly ok, the only annoying thing is that I like to chose "all instances" especially to discover interesting things, but there's a lot of instances says in Deutsch, Italian, Polish, or whatever, and we cannot block whole instances, only communities, so if there is dozens of communities on an instance, you have to block them one by one

[–] MyOpinion@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It is really great. Once the servers stabilize this is going to be so much better than Reddit.

[–] SpezCanLigmaBalls@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (6 children)

I think it’s really cool over here. Even though specific communities aren’t what they were I’ve enjoyed just going through all the new post and interacting with people and I could get used to that

Once you get a hang of how the fediverse works in general, it's pretty good so far. Using mostly mobile atm, nice and clean, functional pretty similar experience to reddit. Aside from a few features missing like search, I'd imagine there is plenty of room for moderator tools too, and the occasional error codes, I'm loving it so far. No ads, just content, and while it's not the firehose that reddit is/was, if this keeps getting popular, I could forsee just as many communities popping up across instances as there are subreddits.

I'm sure with the influx of users from reddit, especially the more technically savvy mods we're going to see a lot of good tools made for the app and with it being open source, I imagine the devtimes are going to be even quicker than dealing with an ok API.

I'm getting comfy. It feels right to be away from Reddit.

[–] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I like it! I'm on Jerboa and it's no different from what I'm used to using Boost, although I do hope it continues to add customization and sorting comments by new wouldn't hurt (unless if I somehow miss the setting in each post)
