I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.
For me, the worst part is actually the duplicate communities. Sure, it’s nice that newbies can have these duplicate subs so they don’t have to learn how to traverse the Lemmyverse, but it would be really nice if duplicates could be avoided. Like, maybe if Lemmy instances kept better records of communities on other instances.
