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.

    This site is super janky, when I load All, it just keeps adding new posts and moving things I’m reading. Hot doesn’t bring up the most popular posts, but how do I filter for that? I am just filtering by most commented for now.

    I’ll keep using it, after all, if the experience is worse, I’ll use it less which is actually a plus. And as a substitute, it is enough to keep me off Reddit. But it is categorically worse, even if it did have all the same content.

      The Jank things I would expect to improve with time and popularity. A lot of things in lemmy have a ‘slapped together prototype’ feel to them, but with the lack of user base before all the reddit non-sense I can guess there wasnt much motivation to polish out the jank.
