Lemmy now has over 2M users across 915 instances
It's always the same comment: X is different from A, therefore X is not a good replacement for A.
The whole point of federation is to avoid the problems we're seeing with Facebook, with Instagram, with Reddit, with Twitter: control over your internet content. Not having a mega-corp bent on maximizing profits and using you as a milking cow, but instead have a say and have actual power in how communities are built and managed. It is 100% expected that Lemmy or KBin is different from Reddit. You say that's not a good user experience, but I challenge that assertion: I say it's not a bad UX, but it's a different UX, and you don't want to change. Well, if you don't want to change, stay on Reddit, that's not a problem. But if you're going to investigate what the fediverse is, please learn what it's about, how it's built. Don't expect to find the same old world you know, that's on purpose !
> It makes no sense to me at all
You're on HN, a forum where members pride themselves in being intelligent enough to dig around, learn by themselves, be different, hack around. You haven't made efforts understanding how the fediverse works, or why it's different, and your conclusion is _not_ that you should investigate, but that you should complain that it's too different. I don't understand this reasoning.
I think an issue in the mentality in this forum is that people mostly expect products, ie a package that is made by an entity and that is served to users. The package is expected to be complete, shiny, wonderful, the entity is expected to do whatever it takes to convince users. It's an asymmetry that is completely opposite to the whole concept of being a hacker, which is supposed to be the H of HN.
Here's a good post explaining what the fediverse is about: https://medium.com/@VirtualAdept/a-friendly-introduction-to-...

Mastodon Hit 10M Users
> I applied for mastodon
which server?
there are multiple server-side platforms too, incl. some forks, so if mastodon.social is not for you – look around for better lighter alternatives (as well for self-hosting)

Show HN: Fediverser Portal. Bring your subreddits to Lemmy
I wonder if you could team up with https://sub.rehab/ and evolve it.
- Ask HN: What are the 5 best alternatives to Reddit?
- Ask HN: Directory of Alternatives to Various Subreddits?
- Ask HN: Where have Reddit communities migrated to?

How to promote a Lemmy community?
maybe add it to sub.rehab if it covers an existing subreddit

Lemmy?
thank you, there's also https://sub.rehab/

Lemmy is full of Linux tech dads, Squabbles is full of Facebook meme normies, is there a place that is between these two extremes?
and then download Mlem (IOS) or Liftoff (Android) as an app. And lemmyverse.net and sub.rehab are better for finding communities than the website itself
-
[Lemmy-Link] /c/fossdroid on Lemmy now has 1K members! Come on over!
