  • The other guy, schmidt-something is pointing out that people will use their instances to have like-minded community whether that’s interests, language or specialism, while you appear to be advocating for the reddit type congregation of people and for some reason also arguing against the other guy’s description of reality, of how things are. I don’t see why you are offended at him…

    And I see you have your own anxiety and disagreement about the nature of Lemmy’s federated system. That’s no reason to shoehorn it into every discussion.

    I think you are pessimistic about Lemmy’s potential for small communities.

    But have you considered that we’re not indexed on Google yet? And we largely don’t have a pervasive culture of promoting niche communities yet like they did on the large subreddits. So this is two other ways small communities aren’t being found in the first place.








  • I hope the old ui customisations will be available, would be great.

    I’m also wondering what will be done about lemmy’s wierdness about subscribing to subs, where you need to search up the sub on your instance etc.

    Even sharing the comment discussions is useless if the recipient isn’t already from the instance (probably are but many won’t be obvs), the site won’t let them comment unless they find the discussion mirrors on their own instance. So how will sync for lemmy deal with these eccentricities (that lemmy devs are also obvs going to deal with in the future)??

    Thanks.
